The New York City transit company was missing a bus and a driver some years ago. For over a week, authorities searched with no success. Finally, 10 days after they had disappeared, the bus and driver were found- in Miami, Florida. The driver said, “I’d had it with the cold weather, the passengers, and my family. One day after the last passenger got off, I thought, ‘I wonder what would happen if I just took off driving.’” So that’s what he did until he got to Florida, where he enjoyed the sun and the surf for over a week. Ever felt like taking off and never coming back?
