Awww C'mon!  Westy is an 84 with the traditional brown paint.  I keep
threatening to take it down to metal and repaint in a deep metalic purple
... and have a depiction of Gerry Garcia rising to the sky through a double,
mult-colored rainbow ...

And, at the last Greatful Dead concert up here in Vermont, one of my sons
and I sold gallons of ice water and "pizza bread" from the rig .... $2.00
and bring you own bottle for water and 4.00 a piece of pizza - flat bread
quarters with tomato sauce and greated cheeze, no meat.
