Oops, Didn’t See That Comin’


Can you guess this (TBT) (throw-back Thursday) and guess whose Roamin Angel’s father got himself into a predicament is in this picture?

Our heroine learned to drive a stick with this “Blue Leader” (name of the buggy) VW dune buggy. 

Over 50 years ago, her family was at Glamis Sand Dunes in the Imperial Valley near the Salton Sea. Her Dad threw her the keys and gave her a shovel and told her to go and take her little sister with her and figure out how to drive a clutch. She learned but this wasn’t her  oops…it was her dad’s. Nice going, now what?

Several years and I mean SEVERAL YEARS later, another Roamin Angel, Den R, purchased “Blue Leader” and still owns it to this today.
