The next one off the bus was Gary Erb. I understand that this is not Gary's first rodeo! It takes dedicated people like these 2 here to make any project a success. As I write, the bus is wending it's way toward
Dallas, Texas.Ok, now you see me and my 2 new best friends. We are setting at the picnic table at Christ Congregational Church in Belmont, discussing very important things, like where is the best place to get coffee and where is the best place to get coffee if you have a really long bus you need to park to get the said coffee. I was all for skipping the whole idea cause I have coffee at home, but David Bemis was all for Solar Roast because it is maybe the best coffee in the whole world. Just maybe.
So here we set. Know that the bus will pick up more passengers along the way and more cargo will be added.. After it leaves Dallas it will go to Austin, Texas. It will arrive in McAllen, Texas on Sunday. The plan is to cross the border on the July 21. From there it is a little shadowy as to what happens and where. I do know the bus will be loaded on a Freight Ship at Tampico and will be headed for Cuba. The human cargo on the bus will fly via a charter flight to Cuba.
Upon arrival they will be whisked to the graduation ceremony. What they will eat and where remains a mystery to me. I am sure they will not starve and somebody will let them sleep somewhere. If I get any more info I will be for giving you an update. I trust Kris Allen will keep me posted as her friend Scott barrels for the border in his big yellow school bus.
Run for the Border, Scott!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
