No Tcash. Not just somewhere around Stockton CA. That's the 7-11 parking lot on W. Benjamin Holt Dr and I-5. I distinctly remember puking in the parking lot November 7, 1988. Why and how I remember that? It was a night of teenage partying that went down in infamy Embarassed

Nice! I used to do that to a beetle I had, and drive it in Christmas parades. I have yet to do it with a Bus, maybe next year.

This teepee is from an old themed hotel or some such in Lawrence KS. Not pictured are two high water marks from floods in '51 & '53.

One is higher than the roof of the Bus!
