    FANTASTIC photos!! You all chose perfect colors to wear.

    How long was your ride and where did you go?

    I would be jealous/relish but Rusty has fulfilled my lifelong dream and arranged for me to ride in the Weinermoble myself!!!!!!!!!! It’s going to happen next Wednesday, the 14th, and I too will be dressed appropriately. CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!

      Of course, after studying costume design in college, I had to coordinate us all knowing the photo opps would be a-plenty!

      Our ride was about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes I think…it went by quickly though! We drove all around San Bruno, California (none of us were familiar with the area but they have a GPS). We saw all kinds of fun things…a parade of convertible low riders, a giant inflatable Santa and lots of people pulling out their cell phones for photos.

      I cannot wait to hear about YOUR adventures in the Wienermobile. Traci and Yoli are so lucky!!

        Wienermobile will be leaving Willis Wonderland promptly at 2 PM this coming Wed. the 14th!! Thank u so much, Rusty, for getting the ball rolling or, should I say, cheese spread. I’m taking Charles Phoenix and Susan Olsen and one more as yet to be determined lucky wienie lover. THANK YOU!!

    I’m seething with jealousy.

    I am so happy that you all have gotten to experience the wiener mobile! What a life long dream come true.

      I found them that morning at a yard sale! In fact, I found three similar pairs…all vintage. Perfect for finishing off the hot dog look.
