Kicking back in Santa Clarita

Hello again.... once more, I'm on the road, although a real shortie this time. Just an overnight trip, with a San Diego high school group, performing (choir & band) at a couple schools in this immediate area yesterday, overnight at a local motel, and they are spending today at Six Flags Magic Mountain. Hopefully they'll be exhausted and sleep all the way home *grin*. I had the "noisy bus", the Freshmen. I let them have at it, though, because they were singing (LOUDLY), and generally having a great time. So, to heck with it, let them be happy. They're happy, I'm happy! My buddy Don is along, it's a 2-bus move, and it's supposed to be hot here today (94 degrees), so we'll be getting a late checkout, then drive directly to a theater and watch "88 Minutes" with Al Pacino. By the time that's over, the worst of the day's heat should be just about over. Burn off about 3 hours, then it's time to return to Magic Mountain, pick up the kids, and leave at 2100. We should be back to the school by 2330 or so, back to the yard around midnight. Just another "bus driver" kind of day!
