select a good brand of wine or spirits,

pour yourself a glass,

tipple some onto the grass/ground to appease the ancient gods,

sprinkle some onto the front of the bus, to appease the gremlins still
lurking in the bus,

sit in the driver's seat and drink the rest of the glass

and remember all the good times with this bus.

:)

congrats. and good luck!
