Thanks for the views on this video! I'm glad there are fans of Leo's music out there! I was offered monetizing options for this account but can't sign up because it's not my music. But thanks for being such great people and leaving wonderful comments. - Established

I believe Leo was riding through the great Ozark Mountains on a greyhound bus and was inspired by the simplistic beauty of this great state of arkansas!

We absolutely have dog racing in Arkansas. West Memphis offers Southland Greyhound Park and they have one of the best adoption option onsite facilities in the country! I had two g's for many years. Best dogs ever. AND my dad was a greyhound bus driver! So get on the bus and enjoy the ride!

Bus? Dog? What a mystery. I don't think they race gryhounds in Arkansas. Been there didn't do that. I've seen them racing in Florida. It's a big deal there. So who knows. Whatever the title I really love this piece. Thank you.

wonderful piece of music isn't it.

You're right, I've never known for years which he meant - there's a definite bus/dog dichotomy in the title :p
