Lubbock Greyhound Terminal Closes

busterm.jpg
At the age of 8, I was so proud when I took my first unescorted bus trip across Texas to spend the summer with my grandmother. My parents put me on the bus in Dallas and my grandmother drove 50 miles from Olton to meet the bus in Lubbock. In those days it was a Continental Trailways terminal but it has remained virtually unchanged for all those decades. As bus traffic declined the restaurant closed but the rest of the terminal is as it was when I got off that bus as a boy. Now it is closing. The Greyhound buses will now load and unload passengers at the Lubbock Citibus terminal. Click the link to my flickr photo set. Link
