Beach Town Bus Driver

The high school grads are here in full force this week. They are celebrating, riding the bus up and down Coastal Highway to and from their favorite party spots. At one particular stop about a dozen pretty girls boarded my bus. One of the girls is the daughter of a friend of mine. She and her friends just graduated from an all-girls high school and they are here for the week to enjoy the beach and the parties. After riding for a while, and of course attracting the attention of every boy on the bus, they rang the bell to get off at the next stop. As they got off of the bus my friend's daughter said, "Thanks for the ride Mr. Bill. We want to come to your place tomorrow for lunch. Is that OK with you?" I said, "Sure girls, that would be great! See you tomorrow." After they left the bus, I looked over my shoulder and winked at the teenage guys sitting on the bus. Their jaws dropped as I said, "Sorry fellas, I guess I've still got it!"

Of course the only thing I've "got" that the girls want is a free meal. But that's OK with me. A few of them came over for lunch and it was a thrill for this old bus driver.
