You just inspired me...I offered up my services for transportation and tailgate for Broncos games and scored a lower-level ticket and parking pass free of charge for the Cardinals game.
(Free, except for the obvious charge of having to cart my drunk Bronco friends around.)

Saw this one while returning from our usual Sunday riverdog jaunt.
Just a plain old hardtop but nice to see one turn up occasionally.

| No pictures, but caught 7 vans out in the wild of Vermont this weekend. 4 westys, a tin top and 2 bay windows. Take that rust belt! |

Couldn't snap a photo but saw a beautiful Karmann Gypsy on Hwy 20 heading west out of West Yellowstone, MT, yesterday. I was in my truck so they didn't see my wave.

Any Samba folk roaming around Door County Wisconsin this past weekend? Was in Sturgeon Bay for a few days, waved at someone in a two-tone brown van while I was fueling up.

| Driving through the four corners region I wondered about the dearth of Westys. Mine attracted attention from folks regularly. Rolling into Moab, saw two within a minute. Go to cool places to find cool vehicles. |
