VW Love

As most of you know VW's are an important part of my household. (we have 2 - one is alive and one isn't) I have been a fan of the Volkswagen as long as I can remember. My good childhood friend Elisse Rowley's parents had a white Squareback that I loved. I think we were only 5 or 6 at the time they had it. I guess that is when the obsession started.

In highschool I got a new obsession and it was called the Karmann Ghia. Remember the movie Pretty in Pink? Andie drove a Karmann Ghia and I fell in love while watching the movie. I still have the love for the Ghia and my heart melts when I see one in good condition.

I also love, love, love the VW Dune Buggy. My parents good friends the Alton's had a purple VW Dune Buggy and we would go on rides up Cedar Canyon (we had a red buggy without the VW shell that my dad built) with them when I was a kid. I even remember the sound of the engine.

The smell of a VW engine makes me happy!!!
