• 2:02
  Speaker 5: grown up in Boston. Most of my relatives lived there,
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: and my mom and dad had moved to Colorado because
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: my dad needed to live in the drier Colorado climate
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: than the humidity in Massachusetts. So he went to court
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: reporting school. I came from a family with seven kids.
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: In order to travel to go back and see our relatives,
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: my dad bought a school bus, probably spent $ 300 on it.
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: He had one of his friends help him renovate it,
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: put cots in it, a little kitchen, the whole nine yards.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Sounds awesome. And we took that back to Boston.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure how many times until we absolutely couldn't
