Last night, as the small Hispanic children were snoozing away nestled deep within the couch cushions, they were awakened by the blue lights of the Mississippi state patrol, that had been stalking our bus. Knowing we certainly weren't speeding, we were curious as to why we had this visitor in the night. We discovered our crime was driving a yellow bus.
Apparently, only schools are allowed to fly the yellow colors.
Our fears quickly melted into enjoyment as Officer Richard shortly became our friend and ally. We explained our trip and he asked if we were seeing a psychiatrist. He laughed and we traded stories for a while on the side of i20. Totally stoked for us, he gave us his card, said he would follow the blog and keep us in his prayers
Smooth encounter with the authorities... the first of many, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteSo, you going to leave the bus as-is, or make it into something a little more entertaining:

SPOKE to you just as we drove into the parking lot at church Sunday morning Oct. 3rd. You were two minutes from the border, My whole church stopped to pray for you, your protection, and God's speed. Looking forward to hearing a good report. Sending all my love MOM
