Dear Marshall,

Oh my! Last year I was in a frantic state readying my van for the Litchfield VW Show (my first show ever). Saturday morning I was up early cleaning/polishing everything in sight. By noon, exhausted, I was done -- so I took off for Connecticut. Only after I got to the camping grounds later that evening did I realize that I hadn't brought ANYTHING -- no blankets, toothbrush, food, beer, nada!!!

Needless to say, it was a cold, hungry, and grungy Michael that woke up the following morning! However, I did get a Third-place for my efforts!

Cheers,

MJS
