You can put your w... nah that's too easy. 
I thought it was the Hawaiian flag at first but the stripes are wrong.

Saw this Westy at TSC in Oxford, ME. Looks comfortable worn and loved.

I just want to object that most of the Bays in this thread are solid colored, a few striped, but none spotted.

Was driving down I-70 in Kansas this afternoon headed to class and spotted a nice looking Champagne Edition Westy. We were approximately 15 miles west of Topeka. Must have been heading home toward North Carolina
I waved from my beat up 2002 Golf.
It was damn windy, wouldn't have been all that fun to drive a Bus on the Interstate today--I would have suggested highway 24!

wifes is back from Jerry Jam and reports 108 busses with 27 of them driven in by women. because the girl parking everyone needed an orange one to fill out her “skittles” look, donna was put front and center even though there were many others put rows back. i think it was more of a girl thing.

Earlier this month, we were visiting Tennessee and I was always keeping my eyes peeled for VWs buried off in the brush somewhere.
Did see a bright orange bay Westy with a big T on the nose, but didn't get my phone out in time. Did, however, see this guy as we were nearing Pigeon Forge.

Post of the Bus in the backyard up a couple reminded me of this.
A couple weeks ago a friend and I took my Thing out exploring some of the backroads out at the north end of the county. This bus (and pile of metal) was at a spot that was recently nearly underwater as our local reservoir came within about an inch of having to open the emergency gates at the end of May.
There was no sliding door, and no door in this poor Bus. Didn't look like anything useable left, really.
