The School Bus Graveyard.

I was reading something about old airplanes in a hanger and it reminded me of the school bus graveyard out in New Orleans East. It is the wild, wild west out there. You can see things you will never see anywhere else in New Orleans. The school bus graveyard is behind Club She-She’s.

They have the best lunch buffet at Club She-She’s. That alone is worth a trip to the East.

Old Gentilly Road is a really weird road. What I mean is that Old Gentilly Road is not normal. I cannot imagine living on it. Let me tell you about the last time I was out there. Club She-She’s is not involved in this story, except in passing mention. At least, I assume that will be the case. I am just writing as I go along. One never knows what will happen next.

Let us begin, shall we?

On the Uptown side of the Industrial Canal, the road I am talking about is called Gentilly Boulevard. Bayou Road ends where there is a curve in the road, right before the race track. That is where Gentilly Boulevard begins. If you do not know it, you will never notice.
