Hi all

I'd like to have something happier to write about than this (especially
since it is frydae), but tonight on my way back home from picking up my
daughter and her friends from ballet class I saw a Vanagon Westy with
police tape wrapped around it. Being that it was dark, I did not notice
right away what had happened. Then, as I was passing along side, it was
plain to see the bus was completely burnt. I mean total meltdown. Front
to back, top to bottom. Scary! I wish I had my camera to show you how
bad it was. Or maybe it's a good thing you did not see this. Very sad.
I will try to get over there tomorrow to leave a note to ask the owner
to call me to let us know how this happened. Keep you posted.

Meanwhile, if anyone is looking for an 86 westy to buy, I saw one
nearby that is for sale. I do have pics and a phone number.
