Chris, I'll miss your wit and wisdom. Will you make it to the Dead of Winter camp-out in your 'new' old wheels? I hope to be back in Wu-Wei, Hersey's twin.

As it stands now, Hershey will be up for sale in the near future.  It feels strange to admit that one day soon I will no longer own what has been a part of my and my family's life for 12 years.  I will be moving onto something much older and much slower, but still very VW and very Transporter, and I will be making new memories. It is unlikely that anyone on the list would be interested in purchasing Hershey, since all of you are Vanagon owners, but if you are, feel free to pmail me.  I'm located just north of Atlanta, GA.
