The Best Stupidest Idea I've had

Well to give the rest of the story over the next couple of weeks some context, I decided to fly across the country. Normally this would be an everyday affair. However, I decided that instead of taking the smart way home, flying back home, I would buy a 1985 VW Westfalia Van and drive it back. What could possibly go wrong?

I will say that there is more backstory to where I decided on a van and that van in particular that I may get to later. Right now though I'm sitting in the airport waiting to board my flight for three hours to Dallas then another three hours to Sacramento, CA. And that is only the beginning.
