'The Bus' @ The North Bend Theater

I first heard of The Bus, a documentary film by Damon Ristau, a few months ago. An article on Adventure Journal, which featured a trailer for the film, sold me on the idea of owning an old Volkswagen. Sam's gonna kill me. Anyhow. Karissa and I drove out to North Bend last night for the premiere of Ristau's film. A wonderful, albeit short, documentary that highlights the history of VW's Bus, from it's humble beginnings in the Wolfsburg factory, to it's cult like following and a few of the more interesting people that own them. Follow the link for a few photos from last night's premiere at the North Bend Theater.
