Pto

Paid Time Off, it is time to explore. Bus ticket in hand, route carefully planned, the engine begins to roar.. the greyhound slices across the terrain, in the rain. Slipping and sliding, I'm nervous, as we swerve into the oncoming lane. Hail cracks the window pane next to me. It is hard to relax.. I think I'll switch to Amtrak!! Jared Pickett 03/28/2010 Asavvy1

funny one, Jared. Sorry, all my life I have confused the names Jason and Jared. I don't know why. Some names are just that way with me. Andrea

Witty and very descriptive, Jared. Amtrak has its troubles too, but bus travel is the most affordable and you do get to see a lot of the countryside. I'll take a jet anytime! Love, Carolyn
