Volkswagons To Go...

These wonderful vehicles are good to go.
Others have been and gone.
Veedubs have been around for a long time and the world would be a duller and sadder place without them.
How would the Hippy generation have got by without these wonderful wagons.
Imagine Flower Power without the Combi. Or the Kombi.
Or the world without the Beetle.
Imagine the Surfers not being able to go Veedubin at the beach.
It was the vehicle we used to Ban The Bomb.
The one we drove while listening to The Beatles, smoked dope and called for Universal Love and World Peace.
Each year the iconic status of the thousands of Veedubs around the world is more enhanced and so it should be.
Folkswagons to go. Forever..

Todd And His Tiny House On Wheels...

I hadn't seen him for a while
but I caught up with Todd yesterday.
He's an interesting man. An artist and a surfer, he's lived in his tiny home on wheels for ten years with his dog Scoobi and a lot of large fish.
None of whom are called Wanda.
He carves fish for a living from New Zealand native timbers.
This wonderful Snapper is Pohutakawa.
Even though the carving is a long process, I think it's been quicker for him to carve them than it has for me to catch them...
