White Bus


This a few weeks back, from Alex Emond, in Banff: This pre-40's White bus has been sitting behind the newly renovated Mount Royal Hotel, which is run by Brewster. They have had this vehicle since new, taking tourists on drives, little "tours". Now it's restored, used rarely but is somewhere between art and nostalgia, a kind of advertising .
The white canvas roof lets in a nice light . Excuse my blasphemy but this thing would make an awesome camper .... let those New England boatbuilder dudes have their way with it and ship it back out to Banff .
As you can see (below), the smoke in the air is bad . I'd say the worst I have ever seen here. Could be a long August .
