September Again
My favorite tree
So begins another school year. My routes are the same as last year, Again my day starts at 7am, 630 really with my circle check. My favorite tree is there each morning. The same time every day yet every day the light is different. This tree marks the turn onto the road for my first stop. A sharp right then a few meters up to where I park to wait for my route to start. I cherish the 10 to 15 minutes before I start. The light of early morning and the cool air temper the chaos of the day ahead. When time permits I walk down the trail to the board walk that crosses the marsh where my tree stands gaurd. I don’t like to leave the bus unattended so I don’t stay long. I feel really privilaged to be able to start my day like this. I drive through forest and farmland, loop around the small towns picking these wonderful kids. Its a nice life, and heres my tree.



Sounds wonderful! So good to hear that you love what you do!
