Finally,the bus pulled up.and the driver said,"They just pulled me out of bed after an all-night shift() and they expect me to get you to Seattle in time to catch your flight.Good Luck!" Needless to say.everyone was in a really bad mood.I was loading my luggage into the bus and had slung ( my banjo over my back when the driver said,"What?Are you going to play that in my bus?""Well,really did not plan on it,"I replied."I was only kidding."said the driver.But I started thinking about it,and I pulled out the banjo. A worried,angry woman said,"Well,what if I don't like it?""Then tell me and I will stop,"I replied We drove off,and the tension (made the atmosphere in the bus horrendous!Then I started plucking the old song Blue Skies.In a few minutes,I noticed everyone was singing along.I started to sing.too,and before long,the whole bus burst into song. One song led to another and everyone seemed to have a request."Do you know You Are My Sunshine?" Everyone laughed and sang,with food passed around the bus.and before long,the airport was in sight. The bus driver called,"We made it!We never would have done it without the help of our banjo player." Shouts of approval rang through the bus.The driver said to me."This was the best ride I ever had.Thanks for your music.” A few weeks later,my mailbox was filled with letters from my new friends.Their letters reminded me of how. by reaching out with just a song.you can turn a very tense situation into a peaceful experience-a magical,musical bus ride.
