Tonight at the local Walmart (Millville, NJ) we pulled into the parking lot
and saw a late model, burgandy Vanagon GL that basically looked like a mirror
image of our own '91 burgandy Carat Vanagon.  My wife was driving and thought
it was a great joke to park right next to the other van.  I secretly hoped
that we could meet the owners of the other van.

Well I got my wish.  When we finally came out of the store my wife said,
"Somebody is in our van!"  I told that no one was in there and that she was
paranoid.  Then this lady and her daughter came walking toward the store and
asked us if that was our van.  We said yes and the daughter held out my
wife's keys to her!  Apparently my wife was so distracted by the other van
that she forgot and left the keys in the ignition (something she has never
done before).
The lady and her daughter noticed the keys because they were the owners of
the other Vanagon and were checking our van out (of course:).

So we met some more nice Vanagon folks who were going to bring the keys into
the store and have us paged (It was a nice thing to do).
So if you are list members then I say "Thanks" again!  It just seems that
driving a Vanagon creates a brotherhood of folks that like to watch out for
and help each other.  I am happy to be a part of it.  I'm sure that Saturn
owners experience the same thing (hee, hee, hee...).
