To the editor:

Thursday morning I was walking south on Lynwood Center Road.

I was safe in my reflective jacket and walking in the grass next to the shoulder to avoid scaring oncoming cars.

I tripped over a log and fell on hands and knees. No injuries except to my pride, but as I sat there, three cars zipped along without even slowing down. The next was a school bus, whose driver slowed down to see if I needed help. I waved her on and thanked her for caring.

Our school bus drivers put up with a lot during their days, but I thank this one for watching out for all of us.

MERRY MCALLISTER
