National Walk to School Day

October 3rd, 2012

Today is National Walk to School Day!

Unfortunately due to the fact that we live in a very rural community the boys can't walk to school.  Some of the roads between our house and school are four lane roads and don't have sidewalks.  So the PTO at Andy's school organized "Walking Buses".  They set up bus stops along a route that would allow the kids to only have to cross one major road and thanks the the help of the Fauquier County Sheriffs Dept., we were able to do that safely.  I was a volunteer bus driver and our route started at the Post Office, being the furthest away - we got to pick everyone else up along the route.  By the time we got to school we must have had 150 kids walking behind us - it was awesome!
