Indianapolis to Columbus

O the joys of being among some of the nastiest people in america. The bus is not the classy way to travel, but at least there is a toilet. No sink though. O yeah it's super cheap. Seeing I-70 from Denver to Columbus is a familiar experience. Every summer on the way to grandmas house towns like Topeka, Salida, and St. Louis were ways critical stops. Being on the road for this long it makes me wish my passenger irritants we my brother and sister sitting to close, or not sharing the cd player. But it's not. Now I have a very young mother and her slutty friend talking about boys back home while a one year olds screaming is piercing my ear drum through my loud headphones. It suck these two will be my peers until New York. The two continue beeing a nuisance for a few hours more until we get to our destination. Due to road work and the minor incompetences of Grey Hound staff we are two hours late. This where things get better... This stop finally has food not out of a vending machine. Even better they are open. Hell yes we say. Finally after leaving Denver more than 24 hours ago, we get our first real break. Grey hound amazes us yet again and puts all going to New York city on a bus to Pittsburgh, instead of Cleveland, finding us our lost time. Belly full, headed to Pitts, I post with headphones in and a good attitude. Here I come New York. Here I come.
