How Did You Get To Grade School?

I walked from kindergarten thru to the 8th grade and came home for lunch. High school I walked about 1/2 mile to the bus stop, then about the same distance after getting off the bus. We used public transportation but were issued bus tickets that let us ride free. We always managed to get a few extra tickets from days off or snow days. If we rode the bus on the weekend to go to the movies or roller skating, and the bus driver was in a good mood, we could use those extra tickets and ride free.

My first grade school... we lived in the country on my parent's farm in the Ozarks. I took the bus to school.

A short time later, we moved back to my birth city in Texas. My mother drove me to school.
 
Always walked, though when I was a senior I had a very early class and sometimes my dad would drop me off. We had just the one car and if we wanted to get anywhere, we walked.
