K. Davis used Greyhound until he got old enough to hitchhike

Adair expat in Louisiana recalls Greyhound as slow moving affair

Kenny Davis writes:
Ed, just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy reading the Magazine and keeping up with all the news. My sister, Deanna, told me about it a few weeks ago. I remember that Greyhound bus ride. It was a slow moving affair with all the stops and the crooked roads. I used it from the late '50s to around 1960, until I got old enough to hitchhike. -Kenny Davis
Thanks for the comments, and, reminding us of the once primary mode of travel, with one's thumb. Maybe someone will remember that era. Hope you're also reading South Central Kentucky's most influential print publication, "It's Just for a Smile News," by my little brother, Ralph Roy Waggener. Maybe he'll write the Kenny Davis story.. Getting wrote up in the IJFASN is considered by many to be on a par with getting wrote up by Byron Crawford. -EW.
