I love that spot. Camped there a couple times, stopped for lunch there a dozen times, partied there, and randomly met the proud new owner's of a fancy CLF liberated hightop there. Buncha hippies if ya ask me...

The bus looks so good, the coast sprouted wood.

The grumpy old neighbor had it towed away while i was out of town. When i got back, i found out it had already been put on weekly public auction and sold for like $100 or something !! I got a phone call a few days later...some surfer dude was like 'dude, i bought your Bus on auction..can i get the keys from you ? ' . I gave him the keys and said 'Enjoy !' It seemed pointless to fight the flow of events.

Just guessing here, theory only, of course, but I'd bet there might be just a bit more going on here than you're letting on.

Hmmmmm?

Karma or no, I would have told him where to stick that board.
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

I think it's nice that an old retired couple can still get out and be active.

Funny guy :blackeye:

I finally found a spot in the bus to store my ka-loss-toe-me 5000. The RV dump was especially helpful for this.
