Short Shift / Event! Wheels by the Waves, September 2024

Updated: Sep 26

September 21st, 2024 saw another installment of the fun "Wheels by the Waves" event at Bellows AFS (Air Force Station). I actually got to sponsor Paolo and his Father-in-law, Bob onto the base for the event. Paolo has a Sambar van himself done up with the "VW" kit. He's still chasing down some gremlins that are preventing him from anything other than "around the neighborhood" drives, but I hope we get to see & photograph his van soon!


Also in attendance, sans kei, were Tina and Doug. They can normally be seen boppin' around in their very cool "creamsicle" Daihatsu Atrai. They've got a turbocharged engine, so I'm jealous. For now. ;) Always love seeing Tina and Doug.


Our "permanent fixture" at events was there too, Joshua, and his "overlander" Sambar KS4.


My KS3 on the left, and Joshua's KS4 on the right. His "light up" Subaru logo is frickin' cool, and at some point I'm going to figure out how to make one to jazz up the chrome "tombstone" grille on my Classic.


That was the extent of our Kei presence this month. Just two vehicles, but we had some great talks about all kinds of things. This time we hung out on lawn / beach chairs so we didn't have to yell above the band. Thank you to the folks that came out, it was a great time as always!


Now, for your viewing pleasure, is a photo of me drinking one of my favorite beers, Maui Brewing Co's "Double Overhead" Double IPA.

A hui hou! (until we meet again!)
