Generally on Sundays after Mass, our girls usually have Religious Ed and so, rather than go home and come back, I bring my walking clothes and get a good 45 minute or so walk in.  Today on my walk around our City Circle I was surprised to see a VW festival gathering  of sorts going on.  I heard the music LOOOOOOOONG before I saw the VWs EVERY.  WHERE.   I walked with a smile; not because we own a VW but because my Hubby went through a VW phase in college.  First with a pale blue beetle and later with a VW Bus.  I hated both of them.  I was always afraid I was going to get dirt on me, there was no A/C and they were LOUD.  Ick.  However, I smile because he loved those cars (the bus more than the car) and they had some funny stories attached to them involving fraternities, road trips, steep roads and a line of traffic, among others.  Given a choice, I am willing to bet my Hubs would love another one….given sufficient fundage, I’d say…go for it, sweets.  Enjoy the pics, it was a great 45 minute walk!

Let the party begin…

Pop-up camper buses and surf buses

Buses, buses, everywhere…..always remind me of Scooby Doo!

You can purchase accessories for your luggage racks and such.

or rims and tires

or pieces and parts

open real estate? they are parking!!

surrounding the whole lake

This ugly B had one heck of a sound system….

and certainly no VW fest would be complete without the old tie-dye sales and matching bus. next stop, the Grateful Dead.

I think this guy died waiting on parts or something

all states of paint (or lack thereof), but they ran.

love the warning

superb advice, no?
