OK, I realize this thread has been boring without pics. LOL.  I got around to editing the pics from the trip and uploading them to my website.  Here is the first photo dump with pics from our 4500+ mile road trip to and from the One Crazy Weekend VW Show in Las Vegas.  These should be in roughly sequential order from starting and ending in our driveway in Dearborn MI.

Big smiles as the adventure begins...
