First of all, my post today was greatly influenced by another writer here on Virily. A huge shout out, and thank you to Albert Herdianto Widjojo.
Why would a model London tour bus cause me to reflect? To ponder the beginning and the reason why? First off, based on Albert’s last couple of posts I find myself reflecting and considering. The tour bus, a London England bus was carried from London to the US by my grandfather. My mom and dad took my grandfather on a trip to England 6 months or so after my grandmother passed away. When next I saw my grandfather he gave me the bus as a gift.
It was something he often did for and with me. We would, upon arriving in the same place and time, start off with a walk. On that walk, we would talk about the world around us, life and dreams. Grandpa was a grand man! He survived the great depression. He was one of the people running towards the great Napierville Train Wreck of 1946. But he was someone I could talk to, someone who listened to me at a time I understand anything about the world around me.
So the tour bus is in my office. It sits just past the LaFrance replica Fire Truck and things my father left me.
It is a moment from the past. One that I think about from time to time such as today. Thank you, Albert, for the guidance and opening the door to your posts!
Great post, the pictures are fantastic
Thanks! It is a very special toy car for me.
Very nice and personal post, thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you Ellie! I really miss my grandfather. It seems strange now, that it has been 22 years since he died and I still miss him.
It’s wonderful that he’s still in your thoughts! Someone who has been loved, will always been alive thanks to the people who remember him.
You have a great inscription, Coach! We must be grateful if we have a gift that can always remind us of many moments of the beauty of life or someone we respect and love. Hey… I feel very honoured with your compliments, Doc my best friend.
Thank you so much Albert. You turly inspired me to think not just about what I was posting but why!
Wow! You’re impressive, Coach! You are the first person who captures the essence of my posts in general; to understand WHY! That is the main essence to “learn to unlearn” above “know what and know how”. Btw, thanks for your friendship too…
Life is a journey best taken with others! Thank you as well for your kindness, guidance and friendship!
I am grateful and thank you for your such views on me!
Well done! Nice post!
