Blue Beetle in Big Timber

Is blogging dead? I thought I read that somewhere last year and maybe it's so--there certainly is a lot less action on the ACVW blogging scene anyway, at least the parts of it I see. Maybe we're all just really busy with other stuff (this is actually my strongest suspicion).

Anyway, here's a Beetle we saw for sale in Big Timber on a recent non-VW powered trip.

Pretty sharp, at least from a distance. Bad color for wheels on that color of car though.

Missoulaneous Type 2s

Usually the pictures get culled so there's no more than one of a given V-dub in a given post, but this time they're all going up, just for fun.

A couple hipsters parked on the Hip Strip, near Meadowsweet Herbs.


A well-racked Splitty at home in the Upper Rattlesnake.


A '72 with some sort of tumorous chimney vent. Or something.

A Seventy, what? Four? Five? Six? Seven? Eight? Nine? in the Lower Rattlesnake.

Three Goosetown Beetles and a Kit Kar

For fun, Tater Tot and I looked at this Beetle last year as it sat at a local car lot. It was raining that day which led to the discovery of its reeeeeally leaky rear window. It also ran kind of funny (funny weird, not funny ha-ha). Way overpriced--$3800--for a Super in such shape.

Someone more steeped in such arcana could probably identify that kit car back there. A Bradley? I dunno.


A decent enough Beetle, but that sunroof looks hacked to me.

Lunchtime at Washoe Park


I'm in the back of my [!] car, coloring.

I'm in the back of my car.


Since it was a nice day we decided to cook and eat lunch (spirals and cheese) at the park, in Ludwig.



That's a funny spoon, I'm making a funny face.

I'm raspberrying.

We are esploring.

This is a tree trunk that I'm hiding.

I love looking at the river.

There's an apple on my dress too.

Beavers are eating this tree.

It was a little startling to see these elk legs in the campground trash.
