Lately I’ve been walking and riding the bus a lot. I always enjoy talking to the people I meet on the bus. In the last couple of weeks two of my favorite acquaintances have been; a fellow surfer, who grew up surfing on Lake Michigan (I’ve read about surfing on Lake Michigan, but never met anyone who’d done it before). The second was a young lady from Russia who was surprised by how limited our mass transit was.
I had, what I felt to be genuine and interesting conversations with both of these folks……. Sometimes I don’t think we realize how much has been lost. Meetings and conversations like this don’t happen when we’re driving in our cars.
It all happened on a short 6 mile commute to Lomita. The cost was a dollar. (round trip!)
