| On a weekend in August I was
staying at the Kenneth L Wilson State campsite near Woostock NY. And what
to my wandering eyes should appear but a total of three Westies laid out
with camping gear. Yep, that weekend 3 Westies camped at the park with no
previous knowledge of each other being there. Unfortunately I missed
talking to the folks in their red late 80's model Westy, perhaps even a
syncro. We both stuck our heads out the windows as we passed one another.
I think I knew that person but the moment was so brief I couldn't be sure. |
However, I did
get a chance to meet the Schmid Family, owners of a '82 Diesel Westy. As
natural as ants at a picnic, we fell into conversation. It seems that the
Schmid family had recently attended their first LiMBO campout in
Connecticut at "Buses by the Bridges". They said they loved the
campground, the VW folks, and the tubing and rafting at the event. They
also made a contact at "Buses by the Bridges" and were on their
way to pick up another diesel Westy that they purchased. |
