Urban Bus Adventures: CO

I have been riding the buses here in CO now for about 2 months and I must say that they are not nearly as interesting as the buses in Tucson. I find this rather sad. I miss the colorful people that populated the Tucson buses and made riding them and adventure. The most interesting things that happen on the Colorado buses is the bus drivers. I get angry ones, happy ones, and those who seem half asleep while they are driving. I have one who says only the first letter of the upcoming streets and expects you to feel in the blank if you want to know where you're at. There is another one whose voice is a lazy lulling type of voice that starts low and pitches up every time he says a street name. So it sounds something like someone half attempting to sing but can only sing the same to pitches. It's one of the strangest voice qualities I have ever come across.
Despite these somewhat amusing observations I still miss the wild-eyed bag ladies, the drunk homeless guys, the sleepy college students, the frazzled business man and the small students on their way to class that fill the buses in Tucson. They gave me much more fodder for thought and kept me far more entertained. Perhaps those types of people are not allowed to live in my city in Colorado. Sad. As a result I am not so sure I will actually have bus adventures here. It remains to be seen.
