Holiday Cheer By Bus Load

If you saw a packed OPT bus making it's way around residential streets this evening, rest assured they weren't lost! The bus, driven by Paul Patterson, was taking residents of Nader Towers on a city-wide tour of Christmas lights. D.J. Wooden and Julie Pitell, seen in the foreground, lent their vocal talents by singing Christmas songs with the riders to get everyone in the spirit. The event, organized by Carla Balnis, was so popular that she intends to expand it for next year to include rides for Academy Arms and Peaceful Flatts. (Ian Austin/AllOTSEGO.com)
