This undated photo provided by Utah resident Jonathan Sherman shows an unknown person's contribution to The Chalk Bus, a renovated Volkswagen Bus covered in chalkboard paint, in American Fork, Utah. While schools and other entities are increasingly turning to dry-erase markers, here is one solid reason to hang onto your chalk: The Chalk Bus. This rebuilt Volkswagen bus is becoming a community sensation, and when people happen upon it, they'll want to be ready. Jonathan Sherman, a licensed marriage and family therapist, intended to fix up his dilapidated VW since he was first married about two decades ago. He finally got around to painting it in 2012, starting with a black primer, and he invited his daughter to test out her sidewalk chalk on it just for fun. "It took the chalk really well, so click — the lights went on," Sherman said. "I decided to just do the whole thing in primer or chalkboard paint and call it The Chalk Bus."
