Well, another fun evening w/ great Vw Bus guys, the weather was a little warmer, and Schwinger slept upstairs in the Garage !! Nice to have a few new faces, and some long time local guys showed up too. I was too busy having fun to get pics, but I know Jimmy P. & Stanagon took a bunch, anyone get a Pic of Chris Howards Syncro Doka ??
We took a survey, between the 13 guys present, we own 43 Buses !! Thats Splits/Bays/Vanagons, now the number running driving on the road Buses was a bit less....   ( 19*) 
Casey, we missed ya Bro, hang in there, we were thinking about you & the Family.
Tom

The board Jack cut for the occasion was way cool too !
I though the 43 Busses between 13 of us was pretty cool.

Who owned the most, JP or VW Howard? |
I think JP owned the most. I certainly own the least.
Tom- I had a blast, thanks again for the invite. Killer Lasagna, and I had a hoot swapping Vw stories over many beers and getting to meet new folks.
I had fun telling my wife that jdot slept in the back of a truck and JP went full on bum sleep with the park bench. |

Just wanted to thank Tom for great food and great company! It was nice to meet everyone and share some stories and beers.
I was not trying to win, just a dam east coast Yankee hoarder!
Great to get out in winter and talk VW with a bunch of good people! See you in the spring. J.P. |

Thanks Tom for having us up there. Its always a great time. Luckily we had another snow day on monday so it gave me extra time to recuperate from the plentiful beer flow.

No problem guys, it gets me cranked up to see the Northeast Bus Mafia crew and "freinds of ours" in the Garage, a good reason to clean up the place, find my work bench under the rubble, share/sell some parts and drink some Brews w/ people you usally see only in the warmer months. It also gets me pumped up to work on my Buses.
And show off the new Toys....
I'd like to invite more folks, and did have a few no-shows, but sleeping space is usually the issue, I was pretty suprised to see Cuddy was the only one sleeping in the livingroom...

I bet the menu was great! I always look forward to your lasagna at Cabin Fever!
