Ball Family Bus

The poor bus (and blog) have been neglected lately (it’s the chicken’s fault!).

Thursday I topped off the engine oil, and started the bus for the first time in a couple of months. I was worried about it not starting, etc but it started with no hesitation at all. I drove it about five miles between here and town to get the cob webs out. All seems to be ok.  My parents arrived Friday to visit. They had not seen the bus in person before so we gave them a brief ride on a bumpy country road. Sitting on the engine box is not ideal but about the only option at the moment. It will lead to an appreciation of how good the insulation is later!

Anyway, now that other big projects are done, I hope to be working on the bus again.
