My wife and I will likely go up on Saturday, from Phx, for a 'drive by'. Gravel lot camping doesn't have a lot of appeal to me. We'll be in a white '86 Westy with Marvin the Martian on the front and back.

 I'm posting this message again to start
 a new thread.

 I suppose there's no better time for an
 introduction than now! In August I
 bought Harold's 1991 Westy. I'm happy
 to own such a well cared for Vanagon
 and to report it is running well and
 looking good. My brother and I had a
 lot of fun driving it from Virginia to
 Tucson, Arizona. On the drive across
 the country I saw one Westy Bus headed
 east, but in Tucson there are
 several Buses and Vanagons. I've been
 reading the messages on the list for
 a couple weeks. I'm glad I joined it
 and I'm glad there are so many posts.

 Once the weather turns a little cooler
 here (today's high will be 102F) I
 intend to address some rust on the
 propane tank. I may have questions about
 how to remove it safely.

 Also, does anyone on this list plan to
 attend the Jerome Jamboree at the
 end of next week? I will be there.

 My best,
 Ryan
