SEATBELTS!! Staying safe is the name of the game...

Okay. So I got out in the garage today to install my retractable seatbelts! Yay me. Take some befores, 'cause I like pics of my bus, and I likes my camera.





New stuff going in.....


Old stuff unbolted....



Annnnnnnnnnnnnd realize I cant find my damn "L" brackets to mount these vertically! I mean no where can I find them. NOWHERE. Pissed. So, searching around, I found these. Thoughts?

Anyone know what size bolt that is that holds the seatbelt in? Trying to see if these will work. I HATE to start a project and not have everything I need.

Ever just have one of those weekends....

.....where you just gotta get out of the house? Yep. Thats me this weekend. Since yesterday was pretty much terrible, I figured I would fire up Doods, grab my camera and Tom Petty CD  and see whats good. Its pretty windy, but I was wanting to get some fall shots of Doodle anyway, so why not ride and see the country side? I'm in. You? I knew I could count on you Constant Reader. In the absence of all others, there is always you. Climb in the back. I have animal cookies. Make yourself at home.




Okay, first, just a couple typical roadside fall leaves pics. Somehow Doodles colors lend him well to a photo shoot. At least I think so, but I'm biased. I did however get a couple crazy looks from passers by, but what do they know, right? I'm assuming its jealousy. You dont see anyone parking a Honda Civic in leaves for a pic, doya? Didnt think so. Lets move on, shall we? You comfy back there? You are? Good.








Weather today was perfect for this. 73 and slightly windy. Man I love fall. And the sound of myVW bus. Oh, and Tom Petty. He aiight too.

















 






Well there you go. My day. 75 miles, a bag of animal cookies I found in the back hidden under the bed and lots of photos. Doesnt matter. I was having a prety bad day, and this helped some. Thanks for following along..
