Unbeknownst to us, there was a VW van & bus meet-up on Acadia the weekend we were there. The island was crawling with them, many different years and styles in varying stages of upkeep and personalized style. It was really cool. Everywhere we went we wound up chatting with other van lovers and owners.
Making new friends.
It all got me to thinking...
Aside from a few nuts & bolts improvements, Dave and I have done nothing to the Westy since we got it. As far as we can tell, it is in nearly original condition. And people (guys) who seem to be "in the know" about Westfalias spot this little detail right away.
This was the only added decoration that the Westy had when we got it:
We have no idea what it means (it looks like a knobby mountain bike tire to us) but we think it's cool and it's part of Westy's story, so we left it.
I decided it really is time we personalize the Westy a little bit.
Let our travels tell OUR story with Westy.
It's a start.
And there is plenty of room for more!
Where shall we go next? ...
