I'm hoping to do Vermont and Maine on my trip to Nfld this summer. I'd love to meet up with most or some of you.

I'm moving back to W.Mass. this Sept.
Someone once mentioned maybe doing a Bikes & Busses meet up, which if someone in New England organized that it would be really cool....

If you look at the vanagon rescue squad map

http://www.vanagonauts.com/index.phtml?catid=74

there are lots of members in New England. Why are there so fewer gatherings than our west coast counterparts?

we need to step up and represent!

I did a Newfoundland trip last year, its a fun drive. Make sure to add some time for the hills once you cross the border to New Brunswick, nothing like rushing to make a ferry while seeing your highway speed drop below 40 :)

I'm in Nashua, but I'm in for any seacoast meetup.

Make sure you post a thread on whatever you get together. Depends on the date and place, this foreigner may join in. I think I'm going to take the ferry from Maine over to Nova Scotia.

I just moved to Alton (from Salem, NH) and haven't seen a single Vanagon in weeks. I'll be on the west coast in June, but the rest of the summer looks really good for seeing new people and places. I'll do my best to attend whatever happens in the ME/NH area.
