Well, it's been quite a while so I figured I'd re-introduce myself. My name is Travis (or TJ, or Murph, whichever you prefer). I was on Arrow for about 6 months in late 2009-early 2010, but ran into computer trouble so i've been off for a while. However, these problems are gone and I'm ready to come back whenever you want!

Thanks for coming back... hope things hold up this time. :)

There are plenty of opportunities for new/returning members now. I think it's time to refresh the Office positions list again. See the bidding thread in the Dispatch section to bid on the one route remaining (and potentially more once I go through the list and decide who needs to be relieved of their route). I'll get back to you tomorrow on Office positions, but there are some open.

Hi, I'm Reese, a school bus enthusiast from Northern California.

I attend the same school districts as Sam did, which is pretty cool. It's funny seeing the buses here as most of them are created after the ones in the area. My favorite bus is a Gillig Phantom, specifically the one in my current profile picture. I participated in Baden for about a month before it's most recent closure, so I understand the fundamentals of Transportation RP's.

Hi Reese! Looks like Sam (and his brother, Andy) aren't alone anymore. ;) Did you know them in person or is it just a crazy coincidence? I was in a situation where Phil Krulic, another bus nut, drove a bus that stopped at the school I went to, and I saw him every afternoon, but it wasn't until a couple years later, through pictures he posted on SBC, that I realized who he was.

Just a crazy coincidence. One day I google imaged "gillig phantom" and a picture of bus 6 pulled up (the one from the district we attended) so I clicked on it, and it went to his Flickr page.

Yeah, it is a strange coincidence! Especially since during the entire time Arrow was active, there were no other active bus fans from California on any school bus website (though there were a few spotty ones).

Neither Andy nor I live in there anymore...I'm a senior at UC Davis (about an hour away) and Andy goes to college in Pennsylvania now. Our parents still live there, so I go from time-to-time....its odd thinking about how different my life is now than when Arrow was operational. Working in transit, I've forgotton a lot about how school bus operations are run...or maybe just realized how much I didn't know? The weirdedst part about restarting Arrow would be getting back into the mindset of school transportation based in my hometown.  ...anyway, the point of that paragraph was that Reese and I have never met, haha.

You guys should make that happen! ;) When Kodie and I met in person, it wasn't at all awkward (for me, anyway). But, we were with Phil, so there was somebody else there who already knew each of us, and a common task at hand, so that helped. Then again, I had "known" Kodie online for 3 years already....
