Note to Bus Shelter

Dear Pulaski/ Division Eastbound Bus Shelter, For four months now I have used the service of your fine shelter to keep the sleet and snow off from me. Boy, there's been a lot this year, eh? As spring is quickly approaching and I will no longer be using your shelter and instead riding my bike to and from work, I wanted to write a letter of appreciation before our time comes to an end. You really have been great. Really. And I know I'm not the only one who thinks so. I can think back to so many days this winter when your services were so desired by so many people that a whole horde of us were crammed in together, shivering and swearing under our breath, beneath your sturdy roof. I know you haven't always gotten the appreciation you deserve. I remember all to well that unfortunate day when a group of us stood inside you, falsely thinking we were invulnerable to the elements within your three-walled structure, only to our illusions shattered when a large truck sped by and covered us all head to toe in slush. For days after that no one would go near you. I remember the following day, as I approached you, being warned by a fellow bus stop dweller that using the shelter was "a bad idea" because of the slush incident. But our trust in you soon returned. And I don't think anyone could disagree with me that, given the walls you have to work with, you've done a great job of keeping us as snow/sleet/rain free as possible. So thank you, Bus Shelter. Have a wonderful summer! I'll be seeing you in November or December. xxoo, Dela
