Subject: Re: Bus Fusion 2007
No one will replace Frank, or neither will Busfusion go on! we all know
that! To much work, not your town, not your idea...
I'm compressing 220 pictures for the web right now, it's a long process, i
don't care, it's a tribute to Frank and his crew, so i will do it. Looking
at all those faces, bus's, van's from all over our great country (yea,
Canada and the US), i feel empty and sad because i may never hit the road
again to Almonte.... Over the years, i have met GREAT folks all over our
great counties in that perticular campout. I told Frank i would help this
year, but sadly, i was cought with work! so again, i came late Friday...
again. But still, it was so great and fun. I had a blast!
Events like this (Busfusion & Everybus) remind me we are still human being!
My dad died at 54, he was dreaming of travelling... so he works HARD like a
dog all his life (for what????) to travel one day, working hard killed him.
He died the hard way before he could do so, yea, at 54 he had the money...
but no more time.... Take the road guys before you get too sick or to old!
We have a great country ("ies", if a care) to do so...
In the upcomming pictures you will see an 85 yo women, she travel alone, in
a brown 85 Westy, Madame, i have GREAT respect for you... I see Family like
" The Potts family", what a spirit! Bravo!
Busfusion was all about camping in a VW van, who care about years, style or
age of the folks driving this one! It was NOT a club campout but a Westy
camper meeting. It was all about that craSY little 16 feets VW camper name
Westy's.
Farewell and tank you "Busfusion in Almonte Ontario Canada"!
Anyway, i'm still are "The Corruptor", alias Benny Boy

ps.: like always, Frank as craSy ideas, let's do a Busfusion on the road for
the next few years... so look out for it...
