this is based on an actual book called Bus by Mason Williams. it unfolds to show a photo of a full-sized bus. I’ve looked for it for years but I’ve never seen a copy.

Richard, somebody just may find that book and send it to now. Did I mention that I love Cul-de-Sac?

Can’t even imagine an actual-sized picture of a bus. Is that really for real??

You’re right, that is one song for the ages! And I was never a fan of instrumentals. Go figure!

Well, Richard, just do what Mason did! (Only have MORE than 200 copies printed, so you can send ME one) Almost forgot to add - don’t let the project distract you in any way from Cul de Sac, OK? I need my daily fix.
