I had been tossing this idea around in my mind for a few days and<BR>trying to figure out how it could happen when I got a call from a customer<BR>in Hawaii. He tells me that in Oahu that there are tons of Vanagons and<BR>only one trusted mechanic that can work on them. He is super booked up<BR>(sounds familiar) so the customer suggested I could come out there and be<BR>as busy as I would want to be repairing vans. Of course it is never that<BR>simple. I have a wife and four kids so I would need air fare and also a<BR>place to stay while I am there and a shop to work out of or use as a home<BR>base.<BR><BR>I am also thinking that Florida might be a good choice for this idea since<BR>all of the motorhomes go south for the winter.<BR><BR>I am just putting this idea out there. Anyone on the list give me a way to<BR>make my dream of a "no winter", winter actually come to pass?<BR><BR>--<BR>Thanks,<BR>Ken Wilford<BR>John 3:16<BR><A class=parsedLink href="http://www.vanagain.com/" target=_blank>www.vanagain.com</A><BR></DIV></div>
