What was that you said in this scene? "Life might change on you, but the adventure goes on." Are you letting us in on a secret?

 Well- that episode cleaned up nicely- loved the shots of co-pito n family- can't believe those CV's and boots are not holding up- found the recite the other day- $67 each. (One failed in Palm springs just as Boomerang was leaving Az.) In case the crew didn't realize.
Are you guys going into s Africa way? Another popular series "Wonder Hussy" just did a trip thru Namibia - looked interesting.
Looks like the same rust on copito as Blue bus- it sat in Ventura also. ended up installing a 3/4 roof clip off a 68. John did a great welding job. It's kind of documented in my gallery. Can't wait to see the rest of the adventure. Would like to know you opinion on the Pelequin diff Rancho put it= it seems to be working, If you have to get it to release when rotating the tire,
Look forward to your next adventure.
also loaded more picks on my computer and found boomerang pic from befor he was boomerang -
see ya. Bill

Hey Bill, Shame the CVs aren't holding up, - although since that suspicious early failure, no problems since and after I put it back in in that last episode. Done another 10K miles since then. I have to say that the best boots I've had so far were the ones from GoWesty (not sure on the brand, but the rubber is great)
Loving the Peloquin diffs, so thankful to Rancho for putting that together for us. So far we've been very capable on the rough stuff. Still think there is more testing to do though, I'd like to find Boomerang's limit, at least so I know where it is 
In other news - Leah and I are donating all profits from sticker sales this month to the Aussie Bushfire Crisis. If anyone wants an aircooled sticker or a Kombi Life one, now would be a fab time to get one.

(WOW THOSE ARE LITERALLY LARGER THAN LIFE)
New episode out tomorrow, I'll post it here.
