SOMEONE SAID:
Just curious as to what souvenirs adorn the inside of Westys and
Vanagons where you live.
----------------------------------------------------------
I have a tons of stuff on the dash, on the curtains, stuck on & in
places. If I were to crash, they would hopefully become objects of
destruction, killing me instantly, since I would die anyway seeing my
westy crunched up.  Mostly stuff just picked up along the way.

These include:
ASHTRAY
A coke bottle flower shot glass vase I picked up in Mexico, sits in the
ashtray and contains fresh cuttings of whatever is in bloom in the yard
on departure day.

WINDSHIELD AREA (front of dash):
Many rocks, small drift wood, vegetation, lichen, PO kids plastic
dinosaurs (found in the backrest after I bought it, so it stayed.)
plastic insects(Christmas white elephant), a rubber frog, and finally my
4 leaf clover laminated into a business card which is jammed tightly
into the crack where between the ashtray and the dash.  Always there,
kind of like a plastic Jesus. (says, Wishing you Good Luck, next to the
rainbow.)

REAR VIEW MIRROR:
Hanging from mirror, strand of metallic blue mylar from one of the
Burningman exhibits where you walked through in direct contact with a
myriad of hanging textures, colors and media.  Cool

CURTAINS:
Brighton Ski Resort Employee Name Badge (name on it: IRIE)

PANELS
Jerome Jamboree Metalic attendance badge (1998)

WINDOWS
Burningman window stickers 1997 & 1999
Misc. other stickers.

That's about it.
I was joking about dying above. : )

Happy Friday
Ken
82 westy
