Saw 3 vanagon westys in rural central Maine over the holidays-all
parked at repair shops.  Also saw a couple of loafs, also non operating.

Flew in this am from Boston, & my westy, which had been sitting
outside at the Salt Lake City airport for 12 days in cold weather(10
degrees when I got here) started up on the first go.  I had to drive
it to the airport cuz when I left there was a huge snowstorm in
progress & there were no cabs available- hate that!

Tom B.-gotta love it when it obeys my commands
