N.D. Wilson Quotes
There Is A Bus Station In Henry, But It Isn't On Main Street. It's One Block North - The Town Fathers Hadn't Wanted All The Additional Traffic. The Station Lost One-third Of Its Roof To A Tornado Fifteen Years Ago. In The Same Summer, A Bottle Rocket Brought The Gift Of Fire To Its Restrooms. The Damage Has Never Been Repaired, But The Town Council Makes Sure That The Building Is Painted Fresh Every Other Year, And Always The Color Of A Swimming Pool. There Is Never Graffiti. Vandals Would Have To Drive More Than Twenty Miles To Buy The Spray Paint.
Every Once In A Long While, A Bus Creeps Into Town And Eases To A Stop Beside The Mostly Roofed, Bright Aqua Station With The Charred Bathrooms. Henry Is Always Glad To See A Bus. Such Treats Are Rare.
