What is it about Boys and Trains
This title is a bit presumptuous. Because this boy likes trains, I tend to think all boys do. I also think all boys like watching big construction projects. Of course some girls and some women like them too while some … Continue reading

Scenes from an Interaction on the Bus
I don’t know whether I am more observant than the average person or just lucky (though perhaps this really isn’t the term) enough to be witness to some rather odd interactions. That these things often happen on public transportation or … Continue reading
Champions Day
Today was the Raptor’s celebration parade. I couldn’t go, but that didn’t stop me from getting a taste of what was happening. My bus seemed more crowded than usual. I didn’t really put two and two together until I realized, … Continue reading

The Trees at Dawn
Today’s Perfect Moment was seeing the sunrise just begin as I walked to the bus stop. It had been a long winter and this was the first day that I boarded the bus with a small amount of sunlight. Could … Continue reading
