John:

I remember seeing that bus under repairs in your garage that night on the
way to Bliss Fest.  Thank God Dylan's OK!  Looks like the bus took a good
whack.

Scotty and I cut up an 84 GL one time and it was reassuring to see the
layers of solid German steel in there.

See you in the Spring at Bus Benefit!
