Are Trailways and Greyhound still operating? I never see their buses on the interstates anymore. Used to be the cheapest way to go cross country if you didn't have a car.
I still see the little grayhound, but on busses labled TMN&O, which is a local company. Maybe it's just a franchising company now.
Are you back in the states now, Pitter?
No, still in Cali, Colombia and just bought a house. Question about buses was out of idle curiosity. Used to take Grehound a lot as a kid.
I hope you'll be okay. You must really, really love the place after the warnings you got about the area.
Post often, so we know what's up.
We have a Greyhound depot here. Uh, last I looked. It might be a Patriot gas station by now. I almost took one south a few hundred miles when I needed eye surgery earlier this year, as my best pal was going to be in Alaska the day before it was scheduled. Luckily, heh, that turned into an emergency and she drove me in the middle of the night a few days ahead of that instead. I'm only half kidding, as I didn't want a ten or whatever hour bus ride with stops, with eye pressure.
I have take two Greyhound bus rides in m'life, one to Palm Springs from Los Angeles, and one from San Diego to LA. I remember that one best. That cost $6.00. I think the plane was something like $39., which I didn't have. The woman next to me talked for large parts of the trip about the Lennon Sisters (who used to be on the Lawrence Welk Show.) I suffered ennui.
