Well, I made it back to Nashville and everything is holding up nicely
(although somehow I managed to break a side mirror on the way). John helped
out a ton and we got a lot of stuff done in a little amount of time to get
me back on the road. Him and his wife were awesome and I am eternally
grateful.
Thanks again to everyone here who email and/or called when I needed help - I
really do appreciate it. It's nice to know that we Vanagon guys stick
together. If any one you ever need anything or are passing through
Nashville, just let me know!
