YAY!!!! Replacement van has arrived

Shawn arrived today with our replacement van. It's much newer (2008) and better appointed than the old one and goes like the clappers. New tyres also. And it's got a great paint job based on the desert in Joshua National Park. Got the biggest bunny on the side lol. Drove from Myrtle Creek to Portland Oregon ...actually a bit further...this RV park is just inside Washington State. We did 206 miles in a much faster time than we would have in the old van and I'd tell you how fast we went but Larry our friendly CHPs officer might have friends in Oregon :)  Hi Larry!!!  Hopefully we will be able to make up some lost time now.   Got to speak to Karen (Omaha City) on the phone tonight, So nice to hear her voice after so many years of just internet contact lol. It was great!!   Seattle is about 150 miles away so with an early start we will be there mid morning.   Portland looks amazing but we don't have time to stay - will try to get back here in the last month after Lee has gone back.
Returned the Beetle today with much reluctance - just loved it. Bugs #316
