Ailsa @ wheresmybackpack suggested the word “new” for this week’s challenge. I immediately thought of the new year, because, well, you know. But then I looked at Ailsa’s photo and I realized the word new could mean so many things – just like the new year can bring so many new things. New growth, new friends, new job, new diet, new resolutions, new attitude, new lots of things. So I looked through my photos and decided to try something new – new old. Confused. Well you won’t be for long. If you know anything about me, you know I’m all about peace signs and The Beatles, tie-dying and denim, funky beads and VW’s. And ok, sometimes living in the past. So when my son spotted this, he thought of me. He knows his mom

This is my newest post. Old, restored, rejuvenated, retro, NEW. PEACE and HAPPY “NEW” YEAR!
Scoot on over to Ailsa’s @ wheresmybackpack for more groovy ‘new’ posts.
That they do
Enjoy
I love it!!! We have a VW bus on our street and we see them driving around. I think it is the coolest thing ever. Now, I will think of you too.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Thinking of me. YAY! It’s almost like being famous. Lol. Have a great new year, Angelia.

Happy New Year, Gemma!
Wishing you the best, Allan. Gem
In 1964, I was 14 and my parents had one of these. The ‘camper’ version, with a little table inside. Haven’t seen any in years…. until I visited my son in Seattle, where I saw them often!
I drove one cross county back in 1970. Almost made it! Haha. Those pistons wouldn’t hold out.
For some reason, WordPress has chosen to knock some of the people I follow off of my ‘following’ list. I’m clueless as to how many people I use to follow I no longer follow. I don’t know what happened, but as people comment, I get them back. YAY! Thanks for stopping by.
That’s SO you! how fun! Everything old is new again!! I wish somebody would tell that to my knee….
Yup, but you’re working on it.
And next to joe, you probably know me best.
Happy New Year to you and yours Gemma…
Thanks, Bams and Happy belated birthday.
Love it Gemma…they are the coolest cars ever and this one is such a beauty
Nostalgia takes over when I see these. Sweet!
Love it!
I KNOW! VW bugs, buses, and ghias, ROCK!
I remember those VW’s quite the ride.
I am all about nostalgia.
So well kept VW.
Yes. And I love the feeling of nostalgia I get. Thanks for the visit, Sartenada. (Is that your name? It sounds so musical
. Beautiful)
