Those of you who have been around for awhile know that we like to spend time in and around Anza-Borrego Desert State Park in Southern California. It is a huge place and even has a small town in it. That town is Borrego Springs, and like most desert towns, it is well worth exploring. Here is a link to the post that contains this photo and some other oddities we saw there.
This photo was included in the older post. An English double-decker bus is the kind of oddity that is usually found only in the desert. About a month ago, I received an email with an attached photo from the owner!

Hello Patrick,
Hey, that’s my bus! I ran across it with a
simple Google Image search of “Bus Borrego Springs”. I got a kick out of seeing
Buster on your blog site. Yeah, why not? That’s what I said, so I bought her -
sort of a rescue case. Please come back and take another picture. She’s got a
nice new coat of paint now. BTW her motor’s kaput. -

Here is a current photo of the bus she sent to me. They have done a lot of work on it and the new paint job really looks good. For sure, we are going to go visit the bus and its nice owners a little later in the year.
I thought it was pretty cool that she emailed me. Just one more reason why I love the desert.
