Greyhound Graveyard

During a recent event at Three Fish Studios someone asked if my work was inspired by nature. After giving it a little thought I answered "I'm inspired by the history of old stuff." Coincidentally, that morning while driving down I5 I had stumbled upon the most amazing Greyhound graveyard. Actually, there were buses of all kinds... every era, every manufacturer, all with a story to tell. David Pagel, a current Greyhound bus driver was kind enough to translate. Come to find out many of the buses were awaiting restoration so that they could become active participants in the Pacific Bus Museum. The bus pictured at the bottom had already been restored and made an appearance in the movie Zodiac (you can catch it around the 2 hour mark). I was only able to spend about half an hour there before returning to the road, but I will definitely be back when I have a whole day, or even a whole week to wander around!
