Bud's Van

Bud's Van

We interrupt this blog to pay homage to Bud's Van (Actually it was Bud's van for many years, but he generously gave it to us last year if we promised to love it and feed it oil and gasoline). Bud had babied it, had it serviced only at the dealership, shod it with the finest Michelin tires, and ran it up to 375,000 clicks. Now normally we don't approve of large, thirsty V-8 engined vehicles, but this one has been so darn handy that we are getting attached to it! We didn't have to do much to get it on the road, just patch up a few holes in the floor and put in a killer MP3 sound system. This machine will hold 16 foot boards INSIDE it's hold for the trips to the lake. It will sleep two in comfort. It has a great heater. It holds more tools than you will ever need. Thanks Bud, your van has made our cottage project a pleasure!
