Well, hopefully we will be able to get some seeds in the ground this weekend. I think our timing is about right. If it get done it will be fit around a noon time soccer game for my 4-yr old boy. I coach both my boys' soccer teams. Eight 3yr olds on one team and twelve 4-5yr olds on the other. I guess I am a little crazy, but soccer is one of my passions, and I bet you didn't know that about me. I love following Major League Soccer (American) as well as the English Premier League, and some of the other leagues.

One of my other passions (they are many and varied, if you haven't noticed) is old Volkswagen buses. My dream car growing up was a VW and I had planned on bumming around the country in one after high school (that was before I met the only woman who could keep me in one place). I got my first VW when I was 15, a 1971 VW microbus that I still dream about.



Long story short, I have also owned a 1975 "tin-top" westy, a 1971 westy (disassembled and in my garage) and a 1969 westy, that I got rid of this past weekend. The reason for getting rid of the 1969 was that I traded it for this:

A 1972 Microbus. If you think this looks rough, you should have seen the 1969. If you are interested in seeing some of my buses, or the work we have been doing on them, you can look at my photo album, or my VW blog that I don't update very often.
