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 <a href="http://www.pacbus.org/index.html">Pacific Bus Museum</a>. The bus pictured at the bottom had already been restored and made an appearance in the movie <a href="http://www.zodiacmovie.com/">Zodiac</a> (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!</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7946835264591117775-1657527354912186415?l=treehousecollective.com%2Fblog'/></div>Christine S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/06658635308933102807noreply@blogger.com0
