November 6 2004 (Saturday) Bug Ruckus 2
Moberly's Volkswagen repair shop- Baton Rouge,La.
Went down I-10 to 12 to 190...
So we left work at 2:00 p.m. on Friday and headed for Baton Rouge. 
The weather was wonderful. The drive was great. Bus ran very well, 
once again. We arrived in Baton Rouge at 8:00 p.m. Dan called E.J. 
to find out where Miss Goldie's Hamburgers was, we were on 190 
(also called Florida). So all we really had to find was Flanery Rd. 
then we would be at the BRAC meeting place. We ate hamburgers & 
onion rings. We chatted with E.J.,Susan,Gary,etc. Westayed at E.J.'s 
house in the driveway. E.J. and his wife Victoria offered us to stay in 
their bedroom,of course Dan & I couldn't do that. Especially since 
that is the reason we went to Baton Rouge was to camp.(And the 
show also) E.J. and Victoria made us breakfast then we went to 
show at 10am. Show was free and the Jumbalaya & drinks was 
free.I got a $8.00 show shirt and a free show show shirt from last 
years show. Dan & I won the "Long Distance" award. There was 2 
cool Trikes,3 Buses, 2 Ghia's,3 Dunebuggie's,1 very cool 
Speedster,1 MG kit car,a very sweet single cab,2 new bettles,and 
lots of bug's.Total Volkswagens- 60. Show ended at 3pm. We went 
back to E.J.'s house, ordered pizza, and watched "The Holy Grail". 
We left in the morning at 9am. Got home at 3pm. The trip was 
definately worth it,because of the nice Volkswagen people we met 
and the show was great also. E.J. and Victoria was so nice to let us 
stay at their house,eat their food,and use the shower.
The end.
