Well I hoped to be home by Saturday but the bus needed another repair. Right rear CV joint and axle was NFG so that cost me a day in Madison, WI. Found a great group of guys at Kelly Moss Motorsports who were able get me up & running, even coming in on Saturday morning to finish the job as the parts weren't there until then.
Ran into some great people along the way at the KOA Campgrounds I stayed at and had a good time but like anything else, the trip was longer than I wanted. Time to be home and start working on the next adventure.....Had enough of being away from home. Really.

On the road.....
As previously mentioned, I am on an adventure of sorts. Bought a 1974 VW Bus in Seattle and I'm taking her cross country back to Boston. Something I have always wanted to do (Drive Cross the USA) and part of getting the right vehicle.
Have had a few hiccups - Fuel Pump went in Spokane, WA - That delayed me a day but found a shop with great mechanics. Had to replace 2 front tires after road damage on Rt 16 leaving Mt. Rushmore ....These things happen on a 3000 mile drive in 40 yr old vehicle.
Every where I go, she's the "Rock Star" as all anyone wants to talk about is her, I'm just the entourage. This VW Bus attracts attention everywhere we go.....
I'll post pics later once I get home . Trying to get there sometime Saturday......Inshalla
As my Afghan friends would say.
