that sounds like fun! If it was in Seattle or something, I'd cross the border for that... (but it's to far to go to Cali )
You people that can go will be lucky!
Tell us all about it when you get off the Bus

The Knight Bus ... but does it run during the day? *Baboomtish*
I have to admit ... how annoying it is that it's only hitting the big cities, and how sad it is that they didn't think to do this earlier in the year and hit more towns, now that would have been nice ... but then the price of gas ... I could buy two copies of DH at full price for what it takes to fill up my car's tank I don't spend that much on chocolate. | |
