Icy Bug

The Halcyon Bug got a few icicles during the ice storm Sunday night. This is how my car looked on Monday morning. I know those of you up north are probably laughing, but these are big icicles for the south!

Old Beetle

I spotted this old VW in a parking lot the other day. It's amazing how tough these things can be. I think this is a really old one and I always enjoy seeing them!

August Theme Day: Bright Bugs

The Halcyon bug made a new friend in the parking lot!

Beetlebug Yellow!

I saw this one in the parking lot of the Kroger the other day. Another old one to add to my collection!

PS: I have added a new label for VW Bugs in the labels section since I seem to be getting quite a collection of photos of Beetles - old and new.

Bug Reflection

I thought I'd continue on yesterday's bug theme. The Halcyon Bug had to go in for some service last week. While I was waiting for the shuttle to take me to work, I snapped a few shots. The white bug is inside, the yellow one outside. And the sky was beautifully blue!

Hope your weekend is good so far. Click on the reflections link to see more reflections from around the world.

Skywatch Friday: Richland PO

A rare sight, the local post office parking lot empty except for the Halcyon bug. The beautiful, blue sky was the finishing touch on this scene.


Happy Friday everyone! To see more skies from around the world, click on the skywatch link.

Bug Heaven

My Bug plus two others make this parking lot look almost like a Volkswagen dealership!

Sad Bug

You don't often see a Volkswagen being towed as they are such reliable cars. And I must admit, it's not really this Bug's fault but its owner's. You see, I did something very, very bad to my sweet, little Bug. I put regular gas in its diesel engine. The best thing I can say is that it didn't get far, but now the engine has to be cleaned and flushed. Hopefully he'll be back up and running soon without any permanent damage.

I miss him though.

Route 66

I find the European fascination with Route 66 quite interesting. Perhaps it's because I grew up on the route, so it's nothing really special to me. Germans do love their bugs though - you almost see more of them than the new beetles. This one was certainly in good condition.
