An old short bus painted with psychedelic designs and pictures of planets and UFOs. The sign on the bus says that it is the Cool Bus.

The Cool Bus

I found this former "Short Bus" school bus, transformed into the "Cool Bus", in front of Waynedale Auto Repair at the corner of Old Trail Road and Lower Huntington Road in Fort Wayne.

The text on the side of the bus says; "Peace Love and Intergalactic Harpiness." That's Harpiness, not Happiness! There is a harp painted on the side of the bus, as well as a UFO and the planet Saturn. The painted sign on the back gives the bus its name. I have no clue what it all means!

Update: Julia Meek, host of Meet the Music on Northeast Indiana Public Radio, has informed me that the Cool Bus belongs to musicians Dan Dickerson and Mikila Cook. Dan plays the harp.

Purchase Prints
by Christopher Crawford

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.

If you do not have a Paypal account, and do not want to sign up for one, there is a link on the Paypal page that says "Don't have a Paypal Account?" Click it to pay without signing up. It will accept your credit card like a normal credit card payment.

Prints usually ship within 7 days. This allows time for me to make your print, and if you have ordered a framed print, to frame and mat it.
