Dave & I went to Washington, DC for the weekend to visit family and play tourist. Westy still needs a new water pump so it stayed home.

On our way home we stopped in PA for gas. There was a Westy parked in front of the convenience store so we went over to chat with the guy. He was…different. He looked a bit homeless, with a slight air of potential serial killer. We learned that he bought his vehicle in Minnesota and it has been his home for the past year. He rattled off a long list of cities and states that he has been through in his home on wheels. He showers at YMCA’s, stops at libraries when he needs to use the computer, and has his unemployment checks directly deposited to his bank account. Kind of a modern-day, out-of-work, rail runner.
