Hey, Grandma! I haven’t chatted with you in AGES! How are you?

My first car of my own was a 1971 VW Bug, but my parents have had 17 VWs through the years. We used to have a Vanagon, but it always needed to be parked on a hill for a rolling start, same as my first Bug! I parked it on the TOP of Hoover Dam once when I was visiting so I could get a rolling start, LOL!

I’m pretty sure I could still take apart and reassemble my M16 with my eyes closed if I needed to! (But I hope I don’t need to!)

Mr. CGG had a VW garage in the 70s. Frequently, he would be desperate for help and ask me to help him. I got pretty good at helping to take out the engines and disassembling them but when it came time to put them together, I was out of there.

I lost my diamond once in the washer tank. Mr. CGG got me a new one.
