I can't believe it is the last day of our fun-filled vacation. I don't think any of us on the bus were in a hurry to go back to the possibility of a blizzard that is on its way.
Helped Tim Shelton, our bus driver, find a place for lunch. I am sure I drove him crazy with my laughing. :o)
We had a nice conversation. Our escort, Ernie Sloan, was getting a kick out of us. I guess that is also my second job----entertainment.
We played a game on the bus that if you said the word 'bus' then you put a nickel in the cup. Boy, you don't realize how many times you say that word. Tim tried to ask what transportation I took while living in Chicago. I said: Metra, El, South Shore train, and couch, but not the word bus.
It's a good thing I went back and sat down in my seat, as shortly after, we went by a semi and a big piece of ice flew off of it and hit our bus's windshield, cracking it. A little while later a bird got caught in the wipers, which was pretty funny.
Had our last lunch at Culvers just north of Fort Wayne, Indiana. I enjoyed my mushroom & swiss burger.
We got back to Muskegon around 5:30 p.m.
Here are the stats on the bus trip through Orchard View Travelers. We went 3,950 miles, used 571.75 gallons fuel, and spent $1973.51. The average price of gas was $3.46. The bus gets 6 mpg on the highway.
