So, it’s the 4th week of not driving to work.

I take my car only when I have to…Like this thursday I have to, because I have an appointment at the DMV to change my license.

but it’s been going great. My bus system the Foothill transit is a very civilized bus system. They have new buses, called the Silver Streak, which I admire greatly but do not ride. The Silver Streak only goes downtown, and I need to go to Pasadena.

See? Those are the west end of the foothills I am transiting. That’s a view of North Pasadena. And the end of my bus ride there and the start of my bus ride back. The very last stop before heading back home is in front of that Shell gas station. And in the bottom right corner is the stop before it.

The price of gas has greatly impacted my bus ride. To be honest, I didn’t think that would happen. BUT it is now to be expected that there are not enough seats on the bus. It’s getting kinda crazy! Almost every ride there are two people without a seat.

What do they think this is? Manhattan? this is LA and we need more or bigger busses or both.

I would like Foothill transit to give us a Silver Steak bus. In addition to their innate coolness, what with having a bendy middle and NAMES like ships (“Spirit of South El Monte”, etc.), the Silver Streak has free wi-fi.

it would be very good to get the silver streak coming to my bus stops.
