  That might have been the one.  I was passing on the freeway and also
checking for wind...so I was going slowly.  There are often long term
campers parked in that lot...A number of Canadian BoardHeads spend much of
the summer sailing season parked right there... return year after year and
stay in the same parking space.

   I hope he found some good Vanagon mechanic....I have never heard of
anyone that is spoken highly of around The Dalles or Hood River as a Vanagon
guy...
