Most of you know me by my trips in my Syncro Westy.

Well, before that were many trips in Mr Bus, my '81
air-cooled passenger Vanagon.  I got it in January
'82 to replace my '76 because I was just tired of
being cold after skiing.  Someone asked me once in my
'76 "when will it get warm back here" and I told them
"April!"  The '81 has a BA-6--that still works great!
It took me 150,000 miles before I got the Syncro Westy
in April '01.  http://jones.colorado.edu/DV/one.html

Today after 30+ years, Mr Bus went to the spa.  First wax
job.  First real interior cleaning.  What do you
think?  (I think Mr Bus is a keeper!)
