Skoolie spotted

I am running South on Interstate 71 in Bellville Ohio and I see a chocolate color prison bus turn skoolie pulled over with a couple of police officers searching it. I hope if it's one of our members everything is ok

From everything I've gathered over the years as a deadhead, converted buses are prime targets for a search. Depending on how the bus (and you) look.

Heading back up the other direction I saw the same skoolie today. Apparently he was able to resume his journey albeit a day behind schedule.

I had a brief interaction with the police when I was waiting for a radiator in Nebraska, I could tell they were veeeeery interested in what I did for a living and what was inside so I invited them in to take a peek. When they were greeted by two goats and a pitbull they turned around pretty quick! haha
