Right On Julianna!! Many of us Vanagon owners are also Travelers (funny about that). I know that the site has been a resource for me also. Anything we can do to keep this valuable tool, as well as honor the memory and work of John Meeks, is something, as a community, we should do. Dave B.

Not just for help, but also cause I like meeting other folks that have the same crazy love for Vanagons!!!! I have even been called on to help at home a couple of times! Its nice to be able to pass on the love and thankfulness! It would be a shame to lose it! Hopefully there is a way to just pay for the site to keep it up. I would gladly pay some sort of dues yearly if needed! I am sure others would be glad to also!
