For a year and a half we have been talking about and looking at VW Vanagons. We had saved the money from our 2008 tax returns to use for buying one. Then we decided to go to Windell's snowboard camp instead. Money gone. Then we got hard core into paying down debt. Well, about two weeks ago we started looking again. We found one in Athens, GA and decided to take a drive to see it.
Today we drove to Athens. The guy selling it was moving to California in a couple of days and was going to sell it to the title loan place if he couldn't sell it. We weren't totally stoked about this one but it was way under our budget and we figured we could put some money into it and make it our own.
But now we love this v-dub/girl/guy/westy/bus/van, whatever you want to call it. It's a 1981 Westy, pop-top, white. No camping gear on the inside. Extra storage was built in it. We have plans for making it our own and it'll take some time.
We also have a plan to travel cross country next summer... in it.
Til then I will be blogging about all our other adventures in, with, around, and because of our "new" Westy!
