On The Bus to The Train
I've been taking the 9:11 bus to the White Plains train to get to the city. The bus the Tarrytown is at 8:09 and 10:04. SO the only way to get to the city by train is by going to White Plains.
All along the route people ask the bus driver if we goes to Tarrytown. All along the route he says "no". Finally, I run to the front of the bus and ask the passenger if they are trying to get to the city. "Yes" is the reply. Come in - you can take the White Plains Train. This happened 3 times and finally the bus driver started asking them if they wanted to go to the city.
The next time this happened, it was with a high school boy who I thought was in college doing an internship. I now understand the whole teacher-high school student thing. Yes, I enjoyed the company of this young man who spent the summer at Harvard for high school students - or something like that. His interest was Philo - American History and Poli Sci. It's been a while since I've had that collegesk converstation. And without alcohol or anything.
He said that Nyack High School was good but the middle school wasn't. I need to do more research.
I told him all I wanted for my daughter is a love of learning. My dad had it. I have it. My husband has it. Not so much my mom.
I think I meet these people for a reason.
