Yeah, sometimes I think how much fun it would be to have this car  or
that car, but then I think that would mean getting rid of the 90--and
what would I carry the family around the country in, haul garden
tillers and plywood in? Then I think, well, the diesel westy could go,
but then I think about how much we LOVE to camp in it.

Then I think about how much money it would take to do everything I'd
like to do for each of them.

Then I think about what it must be like for people on this list who
have many more than I do...

Then I think I'll just be happy with what I have. Two is a perfect
number of Vanagons. Enough to make you think of unloading one of them
once in a while, but not enough to make me actually go through with it.

I sure would like to find my old 69 bus someday, though...
