It is at the base of the hill on the right, correct?

I have seen the vehicles, I just have not spoken with the owner...

I dunno how I miss them, as I work on the top of the hill, at Assembly by the Hampton,
and haven't seen `em when I come down.

I keep forgetting to look.

I do know there are 2 buses always parked at a house across the street from the
Rosauers east of there.

Will have to pay more attention, as I pass that way about every day...

As far as I can tell they are all bay...I remember a few years ago there was some earlier stuff there, but I beleive most of that is gone now.

Bugpack......I don't know you or your situation but reading you are going to Iraq I am assuming you are serving our country. If that is the case, please be as safe as you can and THANK you.... Cool

yes Darren. I'm in the washington army national guard. with a little over 5 yrs before retirement i'm being sent to the biggest cat box in the world.
I will tell everyone about my bug on a later date if anyone is interested. I hope to save up enough money to buy a squareback to work on.
And yes I do play on being careful. It's my young gunho troops I'm responsible for that scare the crap out of me.

Theres a Single cab and two busses, all bay windows. You have to take a left like your going to the college. I thought about stopping, but looks pretty scary up in there.

With these laser-like directions, I was able to pop right in on the way down the hill
for dinner this evening.

Sighting confirmed, 2 buses and a single cab. Pulled up the dirt road to take a
few snaps with the digital I keep in the glovebox of the bug, but spied an unfriendly
shaved head guy sitting behing one of the buses.

He didn't look terribly friendly, so I gave a head nod, slid the SB into gear and boogalooed.

Maybe one of these days when I have time I'll stop and see if the guys up to a chat
on the subject...

The bald unfriendly guy dosent live there.
I did one better went out for a drive, stopped in and saw someone working on the bay window. Pulled in and said hey, and bs ed for quite a while.
Cool people, not really into selling any of his dubs, he's got a lot of love. He's an old school cat, said he needs to get out and socialize a bit with the vw people, so might see him around a bit.
