I'm a professional woodworker and my wife is an artist, so I guess we
qualify. It's the perfect vehicle to haul our painting supplies and
cameras up to Lake Superior for a week of painting and photography (and
good Canadian whiskey). One year the black flies were so bad Mary set
her easel up inside the van to paint! Can't stop a determined artist
with a Westy.
