Subject:New Use for a Vanagon

Ok, I know it's not Friday and this is probably borderline but - I used my
bus for a new thing yesterday. Make a long story short we had about a 40'
tree that had split and was resting on the power line from the pole to our
house. We tied a heavy duty rope to the tree and threw it over a very large
nearby tree and then tied the other end to tow loop on the back of my bus -
I then used the bus to stand the tree up off the lines so it could be cut
down properly.

I know it that could have been accomplished with many other vehicles - but
the bus was all we had and now I can add another experience to my rapidly
increasing bus stories!

Yay for useful Vanagons.
