Subj: Friday ramblings about trips and parts delivery.  Delete if
you're only into hard core tech info.

Our trips to New England and Canadian Atlantic provinces to escape
the hot muggy Appalachian summers is becoming somewhat of a
tradition.  So too is the delivery of bus parts from the Bus Depot
(right down the road from me) to VW people in that region.
Last year we took a few things to listmembers in Cape Cod.

We just sent in our registration for Transporters by the Tunnel (July
17-19 in North Adams, MA...see LiMBO page for more).  We're also
taking a trip through VT, NH, and ME that following week.  I know
it's early to think about July, but people do tend to plan vacations
early.  So if anyone wants to tag along for part of the trip up Lake
Champlain, Shelburne, Mt. Mansfiled, White Mountains, and over to
Saco (near Kennebunk) Maine after the TbyT campout, feel free to tag
along.  It'll be fun to caraVanagon and nice security in case of a
breakdown.  Oh yeah, we're coming from east central PA.

Some people have already given suggestions on what to see and do, and
other info would be appreciated.

Along those same lines, if you'll be needing any parts from the Bus
Depot, do your finances with Ron (I'd have to pay sales tax since
I'm local), and I'll bring 'em to ya.  We'll go within reasonable
distance from our intended route or meet you and please don't ask me
to schlepp a motor or something.  I'll even store them in the mean
time.  I have listmember references for this, so I won't be walking
off with your parts.
