This VW get together is a little too far for HK to try to make in the '77 Wabbit D. : ) The trip would probably take me 28 hours each way, especially with headwinds, not to mention head*gaskets.* And the price of diesel . . . oy. But some of you Nor'easterners will want to go to this event.

Go and have fun, and take some digital pictures for us homebound hillbillly types with small fry to be raised. hk
