I guess I should have walked to school, let's see Primary school was 4 miles away and Jr. and
Sr, high was almost 10 miles away.
Around here guys like this might be part of the reason folks don't let their kids walk to school:
We live in a rural area with virtually no shoulders on the roads. Our two never rode a school bus.
I picked up more bad habits on the school bus than I ever did in school. My wife said the
school bus was the absolute worst part of going to school for her and her sister. They grew up
on a Dairy and there was always a large sign at the farm entrance where milk tankers came
in and it was nearly an everyday thing to be ridiculed about living on a farm and it was always
is that your Daddy on the sign milking the cow. Our youngest has MD so it was either take him
school ourself or put him on a special bus, my wife always got up at 4:30am, milked the
cows and got the kids ready and took them to school. No regrets at all both were honor
students and get excellent grades in college and on their way to graduate with honors.
