I decided to further expand the scope of my bus riding by taking the bus early on a Saturday morning to Vassault Playfield to meet a friend and run part of the Sound to Narrows course.
So, I catch the #28 to Tacoma Community College for the connection with the #10 heading north. (To my great interest, the bus that ran the #28 route became the bus that then ran the #10 route.) Rather than sit on a bus going nowhere I leave figuring that the driver left so I can get back on when she gets back on. While she and I wait for the assigned departure time, we are entertained by a Pierce Transit employee who, apparently on a break from driving his Pierce Transit pick-up truck, takes time to practice his boomerang throwing and catching (or fetching if the boomerang returned to his vicinity).
This guy had some obvious confidence and skill because he was throwing in the parking areas for the buses with nothing and no one in danger. When the driver and I got back on the bus, I should have asked her if she knew Mr. Boomerang, but it was too early for complete sentences.
Has anyone else seen the boomerang guy?
Brad, Staff
