That's an ancient pic of my bus! I remember this place, it's my po's house! Where'd you find the pic? I ground that dead sticker off years ago.

Here's my wife's Sweet Pickles set that she played with growing up. Pretty sure she had every game. Our 4 yr old loves playing the games, sometimes it's all he wants to do...no game consoles at our house. Pretty funny how she's married to a guy who drives a bus...turns out those damn educational games are educational.

Now that is cool, vague memories of seeing that at school. My toys were rocks and old bottles I found in a creek, and motorcycles!

I didn't realize those were factory colors. Here's one for sale in Maryland:

That sure sounds like a good price for a Wild Westerner. If all the problems are shown accurately, it shouldn't take much to make it shine again.
