She is the least quirky

Life is one beautiful trip.

The day has arrived. It is time to pick up our ride. We don't know exactly which set of wheels we will have until we arrive at Vintage Safari Wagons in Costa Mesa, California.

Not sure if this one is road worthy

Which one will it be?

Bill explains that this particular van is the least quirky. That's reassuring.

We don't pull out of the lot until we have placed Dashboard Buddha.

Here she is, our home for the week. We have named her Betty. Steady Betty White.
This is our campsite for the first night, Point Mugu on the California coast.

We wandered through Manhattan Beach for awhile.

Goodnight Steady Betty. Where shall we go tomorrow?
