Well, John, then you don't have to do any driving at all!!! LOOK ABOVE THIS COMMENT by about 8 and SEE THE NEW BUS!!!You can just be a passenger on the ALBERTA ROSE Tour Bus along with Sister Kiki, Ron, Cassie, Brother Rolan Mr. Tree and Mumj and anyone else here that wants to go!!! You can GAWK out of the windows as much as you'd like to!!!
BTW-The driver will have BLINDERS on. Of course, Miss Rose (me) will be your tour guide!!! :)
Seriously however, in a different life, I think I would like to do that for a living. In this one, I am just enjoying being the tourist!!!
Thanks all of you for your fun and wonderful comments!

Denny E. Barnes September 21, 2009
Hey, Laura. I could be the buss driver if you don't make me wear blinders. We won't get anywhere very fast because of all the gawking I'll be doing and the very,very slow speed I'll be driving but everyone will have plenty of time for photo and sightseeing..hehe..Christine Lobsinger September 22, 2009
I coming, see me, I'm just alittle behind, that's all, but I'm a coming.....Laura E. Swan September 22, 2009
Well...I can talk to the boss about removing the blinders so you can "see it all" and offer photo ops, Denny and Chris, while you guys drive and co-drive...but for now these are the "uniform" hats you are assigned to wear if you are the driver/s!!!:) !!! COME SEE !!!
