Last week, I wrote about an incident at a nearby intersection, where I stopped traffic to protect little ducklings. Yesterday I was at the same intersection, and the traffic was very heavy. Even worse, there was a school bus that stopped just before my street, stopping all traffic on both streets in all directions while the students got off and crossed. I knew my wait to pull out would be even longer, now that the school bus had stopped everybody. But the school-bus driver caught my eye and waved for me to pull out. While traffic on the highway remained stopped for the school bus, she let me pull out and go on my way before they resumed their trips.
Tomorrow I leave on a long road trip, which will involve camping and surprises on my way to the Wildacres Writers Retreat. I am very excited.
