There is a deep freeze over a major part of the United States that started just before Christmas and has continued for several weeks. But what is unusual for the US is normal for many parts of CANADA and other parts of the world.
Well Contact has been made with been made with a part of yonder neighbor and I requesed these pictures were to compare with what Missouri is having now. I know that for many NORTH of me this is normal but for this California born and raised guy, I am living a life I never thought exsisted.
So here is one of the pictures Lisa in Canada sent me and below is a link to the others she has put into an online photo account.
Can anyone relate? By the way FYI they do not stop because of the snow. This was ofter Christmas Vacation when they went back to work.

A School Bus Driver Recipe for Fun and easy for family meals.
Make like a meatloaf, 4 pounds of ground turkey is a good start, adding your favorite spice packets for the short method or for the long method add onion, oregano, chopped pepper, chopped garlic, two eggs, and breadcrumbs and anything elce for flavor, then make into meatballs the size of golf balls.
Brown in a little oil on top of the stove, put on a baking sheet, bake in the oven at 350 for about 40 minutes.
Serve in fresh rolls (wheat are more filling).
Prepare your rolls as you like, putting in the meatballs, add a little extra sauce and sprinkle on some Parmesan cheese.
You can make your own sauce (click here for our low calorie version), or if time is a problem you can use your favoite pasta sauce.
Freeze the leftovers. It is said that the frozen ones are better because the spices are blended through the meat and the flavors have time to greet each other .
To freeze use quart size bags, double bagging. Squeezing out the air, mark the date then put in the freezer. They freeze good for up to six months.

Here at School Bus Driver Video Blog I find it interesting to find out how others do it compared to my nice simple ddaily route where almost everything is done for me versus what must be done in other countries. Here is an example of how one contractor handles the daily task in Thailand.

At School Bus Driver Video Blog we have only the best we can put our hands on and that is the case here. Randi Mueller at Independence, MO gives us this story.
The Story:
I noticed that one of the middle schools and student coming toward my bus struggling with a load of books and keeping his pants up. Sure enough, he approached the stairs of my bus and proceeded to climb the stairs. Gravity was taking over and sure enough, when he let go of his pants to grab the handrail for the stairs gravity took over and his pants drop some. He did catch them before any pride was lost and kept climbing.
As I approached his stop. The first one on the route sheet, with fully loaded books he made his way down the aisle. When he was next to me. I offered to assist him while he carefully climbed down the stairs. But as you all know, when dealing with middle-age school kids you were talking a foreign-language.He managed pretty well the first to stairs, but the third one was due. He cut himself before hitting the pavement and managed to maintain a hold on his riches, but the books went sprawling.
By this time, the whole bus was in motion with hooves and howling as I tried to calm them all down. So we could move on, he had pulled himself together, and strolled across the front of the bus to make matters worse, as he moved smack dab in front. He lost hold of his pants and down they went in full view of all the kids. But the most unfortunate for everyone. He had no underwear. It took some time for us all to recover and continue on.

Driving for the Independence School District #30 for years School Bus Driver Blog found out that Larry has been performing in the Kansas City area since the mid-80′s at Libraries, churchs, coffeehouses, bar & grills and festivals. It’s usually his guitar, and harmonica. But he has considered forming a duo or trio with friends, but his music is typically very personal and often on the dark or bittersweet side.
He thanks GOD for the Blessing of his WIFE (who is always there), THE SONGWRITER’S CIRCLE OF KANSAS CITY AND A SPECIAL THANKS TO DAVID HAKAN for his years of hard work. Othe influences are Johnny Cash (The Man), Ian Tyson, Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Emmy Lou Harris (who he thinks she sweet?), Lefty Frizzell, Gordon Lightfoot, Bob Dylan, and once more, JOHNNY CASH.
Hope you enjoy the song here. You may purchase his CD below.
