Full Circle

My first real car (One I bought myself) was a 1971 VW Van Transporter. With some good luck and help from a fellow teacher I am now the owner of a 1999 VW Eurovan Camper. We have christened her "Judea" after the ship in Joseph Conrad's "Youth" that Sue Ellen and I read in college at OWJC. Our intention has always been to name something Judea and now we have done so. We are hoping that we will have "a deuce of an adventure" traveling this summer. Our plans are to take her to New England and maybe on to Nova Scotia. Eventually, like it or not, dreams have a way of materializing. The picture below shows it the day I brought it home. Another irony worth mentioning. I purchased the Eurovan from the son of the man, we bought our house from who had recently died.
