Relisted to end on a weekend rather than mid-day mid-week. 3 days only.

Westfalia camper with lots of bonuses. Sink, water tank, pipes, faucet included (just needs pump). No stove in this model (this is a good thing; better to cook outside and not stink up the bus, and no hassle with on-board, non portable propane tanks). | eBay!

Wow, all these new likes after I've been idle for awhile. Thanks y'all. Guess that's what happens when you become famous and get published. Thanks Richard Kimbrough for the amazing shot under the milky way. Sonora should be up and running again soon and updates of adventures to resume. Thanks for liking me!
