We saw the arrival of a newbie of a different sort on Friday -- a Bluebird with the world's shortest wheelbase! Turns on a dime. Takes out any obstacle in its way with a simple flick of its massive tail. Don't mess with this bird!
It is interesting that this bus does not have air brakes, yet it uses compressed air for the driver's seat and the entrance door. It combines in its suspension both leaf springs and air bags. It has been given the resplendent name of 505, a more "prodigitous" moniker than any jitney we've had in quite awhile. We'll call him '5', for short.
Thanks to everyone involved in making this acquisition a reality for MCT!

79 reposes in a training wheelchair ...
... and grimaces at a math riddle by 87. It was Friday, after all. 
91's installation of a door jamb gets instructional encouragement from 81A and 80.
98 checks to make sure his burger doesn't burn to a crisp.
We had a very nice visit Friday from T., who's company was enjoyed by 78.
A highlight of the Friday BBQ was the visit of 84's daughter A. She was delightful and quite adept at outrunning 99 during dizzy races!
Happily for 82, there was still plenty of good food when she finished her driving shift.
