I thought Robbie's Bus had a lower body colour bumper. Or did he just have his "spare" on _________________

Here's my wife, my son, me (the Rich P.) and samba member SevenOaks. We met up at Ska brewing here in Durango for a few pints. Great guy, can't wait to meet up again...
Samba members Mtnbus, richparker, and chazzD at the Jerome Jamboree...
I know I have one of Jeff Geisen and I from when he was at my house, I'll look for it. _________________ __________

Thanks for the picture Steve! It was great meeting you and shouting about real-world stuff over the Fox News masses in the background… That European picture pulling the sailboat sure is sweet!

Not anymore… I do occasionally post pictures from a while ago. The white bumpers highlight the lower lines of the body so well though, I can't hide it! See below…
The elusive desertbusman was the first Samba member I met in person… No photos of us though, but our buses made the rounds of local shows in Arizona:
Here is Bugsy Malone (Ant) and I a few years ago, on her trip from British Columbia to Cuba and back!
The man, the myth, the legend, Stuartzickiefoose!!
And of course, who could forget Pookiebus??

Another one of Desertbusman pulling into a Mexican restaurant in Old Town Scottsdale. I've met up with him several times, but no pics together.
Note the updated pinstripes. |

Samba member asiab3 (left) and me, richparker (right). This is near the end of his multi month 15,000+ mile US road trip. Photo was taken at Ska brewing right around the 13,000 mile of the trip. He needed a place to work on his engine as it was making a bad sound. Turned out to be a 4 day visit with a complete tear down and rebuild. Cam ate a lifter and was going flat. Local shop hooked him up with the necessary parts and seal kit. He rebuilt the engine on my work bench and was back on the road with plenty of time to make Thanksgiving dinner with his folks.

I contacted the Volkswagen Owners Group of Newfoundland before we traveled there in September 2015. They are Sambinos as well. We met up in St. John's for lunch.
Scott (newfoundgti), myself, Mark, and Bob (bobnorman). The DC belongs to Mark.
