A friend and I were discussing this "Alaskan Gold Rush " television show that is currently making the rounds on the Discovery Channel.  These poor saps, six guys from Oregon, are running all of this dilapidated very used equipment and mining for gold in Alaska.  Their collective dream is to find or discover the "Glory Hole," a hidden ancient waterfall where all of the glacial ice age gold is supposed to be.  Each day these hearty souls go to work and chase their dream.    

They do this on a tract of land in Porcupine Creek, Alaska, which is supposed to have something like 15 million dollars in gold reserves.  They have gone through some $270K and so far, after close to four months, they have found only about $8K in gold ... So much for that dream eh?  

All they really had to do was ask Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Bros.  "All the gold in California, is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills, in someone else's name."  Old CD, but still fairly relevant taking into consideration today's economic conditions.  I am fairly sure that bankers secretly dream, but I don't think it is about buses.


Some men desire riches and fame, others search for gold and precious stones.  A few jump out of perfectly good airplanes or push the edge of the envelope every weekend on every conceivable thrill seeking high-octane machine designed by man.  Often they climb to the highest peak or scale the face of a seemingly impassable granite rock formations. When asked why?  They just reply because it is there ... the only explanation forthcoming logical or otherwise.  

Kevin Costner had his "Field of Dreams" and I am sure if you did a search you could find a million more.   One of my favorite episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond is when Marie (the mother) asks Ray "if he had another Happy Dream last night" to which he replies ....... "Maw!"  Most men live lives of quiet desperation, and some of us, dream.  

Which brings us to the bus guys.  As a natural progression of things, my friend and I, we ended up talking about what bus guys dream about.  What is it that hearty men of challenge, those Mr. Good-wrench - Snap On Wanna Be's and mechanical know-how Guru's who consistently major in minutia want out of life?

The owner of a second hand bus, he wants for riches and gold, but not for personal enrichment, but rather to just keep it on the road and out of the shop..  A bus nut secretly dreams of making a trip .... JUST ONE TRIP ... where everything goes just swell.  Nothing goes wrong, that mythical journey down life's highway that is for the most part relaxing and uneventful.  Where every turn is a left turn and the passing lane is never shut down in fifteen hundred feet.


Who hasn't dreamed over a cup of coffee at Denny's late into the night of forty-five feet of luxury, lined with Maui Wowie Teaky Wood from Hawaii and every electronic gizmo there ever was, at the flip of a rocker.  A shop big enough to hold a Goodyear blimp and a little room left over for the John Deere lawn tractor.


Here is another insightful observation I will share with you.  I haven't a clue to what women dream about, other than this, "it isn't me."  (I know that one for a fact.)  


I can assure you, I know what a bus guy dreams about.  Stainless steel, no rust and a non wrinkled side.  Shiny aluminum wheels that you don't have to polish, bright lit LED's, tagged and labeled wiring in the bays, instrument lighting you can actually see after dark, a nut or a bolt that breaks loose the first time without nut-buster.  A dump valve that doesn't leak yesterdays groceries when you open it up.  

Bus guys in the quiet moment of the day dream of ..... Miles and miles of highway and no cops or D.O.T., a cold start that is smokeless on a chilly morning, an air buzzer that never goes off, or if it does, it runs a minute or two and then quits, a grandchild who doesn't slam the front door.  

Bus nuts pine for ... 79.9 diesel and no line at the fuel desk, a wide expanse of open ground, an occasional uninhabited parking area for a U-turn when he is lost, and plenty of room at the back of the lot, when the day is over and he is tired.  Hot, black coffee, two sugars, and no conversation at the beginning of the day.



Then there is reality, and our bus ....  "Some men climb a mountain, some men swim the sea, some men fly above the sky, they are what they must be" ... Baby The Rain Must Fall, Glenn Yardbourgh.



One thing about bus ownership there is never a day goes by, that something happens, good or bad.  Little tail-wind, no traffic, full tank of fuel, these are good things.  Looking down at the gauges and the alternator reading four volts, well, that aint a good thing.  You get out the spare wire and alligator clips, wire cutters and you rig up something to get it on down the road and back to the house.  Sometimes you get lucky, and and it all works, and it is just like the man says ... you get home ''on time and you can reuse the bus again at sometime in the future." And then there are other times, that is what Coach Net or AAA are for.  

Our last trip out, we blew the servo on our coach and had no throttle, 800 RPM and that was it.  Six hundred and forty miles from home in Roswell, New Mexico, the home of space aliens, feed lots and few diesel shops.  We spent what most consider an afternoon of some serious head scratching pulled over next to the curb and I finally wrap my head around it and got it figured out.  

Fortunately we came up with a way to nurse it home on nothing but the cruise control and resume feature.  Limping home on New Mexico State #390 ( a great little two lane by the way, if you have a throttle) I looked at the wife and said to her, "I would like to make one trip, just ONE LOUSY TRIP where I didn't have to work on this monster."  But my bride, bless her heart, she has heard it all before.  


She just smiled that smile that she has, nodded her head, and went back to her I-touch and video poker.  Women do not share the same dreams as men.  I have conclusive proof that I will gladly share around the truck-rim campfire some night at a bus meet to be named later.


Much like the boys searching for the Glory Hole up north, I haven't personally reached that elusive pinnacle of motoring pleasure, but I am going to keep shooting for it.  It's buried out there somewhere on some highway that I have yet to discover.

See you in the fast lane ... Watch those right-handers.

From what I've heard, the folks who made the most money in the gold rush were selling picks and shovels.

I think youre kinda cute, in a scruffy bus nut kinda way  :D ;)

Awesome post BCO!! We both already know about the pratfalls of owning such a beast!! It comes with the territory and if you don't like it then these may not be what you want! I replaced my starter last September, in the shop, on a balmy 70 degree day. It took me basically an hour. The starter quit again last night (solenoids every time) in front of my heated shop but not in a place that I could pull it inside. I layed on the ground and changed it, rolling in the snow and ice on gravel yelling words in French that even I don't know. Temps were at a high of 18. Another $300 lost and I would have chipped in another 100 if somewould would have changed it for me! But such is life. It took me 1 hour and 15 minute this time. Cold fingers! She's back in the warm confines of my shop and after breakfast tomorrow I get to start redoing the interior. That is my reward, how I relax and I love it! I didn't buy the ole girl to save money!!!

Man you are right on that for sure.  I did some nosing around and found out that the grand total for the season was like 20K (http://www.tvsquad.com/2011/02/19/gold-rush-alaska-season-1-finale-recap/ (http://www.tvsquad.com/2011/02/19/gold-rush-alaska-season-1-finale-recap/)) and that they had something like 270K in the project.  Now this fall, they are going to do it again, another bunch of episodes about NOT finding gold.

They were supposed to be all elated about finding the 20K and now claim that the glory hole has $6 million in it.  Kind of ironic, all hopped up about losing a lot of coin.  Almost like Vegas ... You put in the three dollars, it spins around, up comes a cherry, it takes one dollar of your money, gives you back two ... And then says "Winner paid."

Uh huh sure.

Often in the early morning hours, I will sit and wonder ... "What was it that I used to do?" ... but it always eludes me.  The wife is quick to tell her friends ... "At least it keeps him out of the beer joints."  I had to change out my alternator and servo this past summer, two big items.  No throttle or horsepower and lack of charge, but of course at my age, it has been so long since I had a charge, I have forgotten where to hook up the cables.  

Nice to have a shop eh?

Sure they will go back, they got the bug. Lastly, I have been meaning to tell you Oakie that your paint looks 1st class nice! But I liked the other paint on it too! Nice rear (on the bus  ::) ) and nice shop too!

One Good Trip --- Dream On 

Van:  Don, would ya, could ya(won't you be my neighbor ), will ya, please post a nigh-time picture of your rear end   lit up?  Are those the LED's from Eagle Interiors? Looking good!

Camperbrat:  I'll 2nd that! Can we see your rear lit up??   Your fan club awaits 


Our coach is 100% LED now, the only thing left on it that is not LED would be the instrument lights, all of the rest of it, exterior and a lot of the interior are LED.  We plan on going to solar panels next for some relief on the diesel issue (Genset).  I know a guy who has a Flixible with them on it and he tells me they are putting out 40 watts on a sunny day, that might be the next avenue for us to go with high fuel prices and all.  (Anything helps anymore)



The tail lights themselves are of my own design.  You start out with a standard clear plastic Eagle back up light assembly, then you cut a circular hole in each one, and fit the light to the lens cover.  You also have to wire in a resistor bulb into the line in order to make everything gel. 


This is a rear shot of the marker lights only, the brake lights and third brake light in the trunk are not shown.  The three verticals are turn signal and marker only with back up lights.  We found that wiring in the brake lights made it extremely bright and I didn't care for it.

The light bar on the bottom is wired for marker and brake.  When you hit the brakes the two on the end light up and all of the middle light up on the brake light side, along with the third brake light in the trunk (not shown). The above shot is "marker only" no brake light application showing.  The two at the very top are brake light only along with the trunk light and I run it as shown.


The bottom is illuminated (as with the trailer and the toad, depending on which one we are using) with what I call "Pimp Lites" and there are a little over 1,200 under the bus, I have never counted the trailer. 

Truckers have their Chicken Lights, we got the opposite.  I recently figured a way to LED the docking lights (again using truck stuff), and have them now, but do to the weather have not installed them in the coach, when I get them in I will show them to you.

Give Randy a call, he will fix you up, he has it all in stock.  Randy takes most major credit cards and will UPS it to you anywhere you are, he is a great guy and his prices are in line with most everyone else.  Eagle Interior Accents, Inc 213 Alliance Blvd, Okie City, Ok 73128  405 495 1899

Hope this helps.

BCO

Wow! That looks awesome Don!

Thanks Don! How gorgeous, love the pimp lights, looks like the bus is just hovering there in the shop. NICE! ;)

Ya gotta see them in person, cameras never do them complete justice.  ;)

From the looks of that bus and the garage it's in and that dirty tee, I'm thinking you are not being absolutely completely forthright with all the info.

Seems to me you probably have gotten way closer to that dream and done it many more times than the bulk of those reading the post.

I think I got there once, maybe, but can't remember.

By the way how do you keep your wife buying you those white t-shirts after all the years. My wife has hidden all of mine way back and I am only handed one on very special occasions. My drawer is full of hand me downs and mismatches and any color but white.

Shorten your trips the results will improve dramaticly

Cheezy? Actually I  made a run  out of pvc tubing that I can assemble and take apart and store in the bus. I put clips on it and attatch a blue rope light to it and set it up under the bus. At night it looks like the bus is hovering on a blue cloud!!! That and it makes it easier for some beer drinker who wears my clothes, that has been visiting other beer drinkers, a clearly marked place to head for as long as it's before sun up!

I have gone to Goodwill and bought cheap long sleeve shirts to wear when working on the bus, that way i don't have grease and oil all of the way up to my shoulders.....if i remember to wear them. ;D   Wash them a few times until they get torn or won't come clean anymore then use them for throwaway rags.

I try to do my best and keep the shop organized (if possible) as it is a real pain to clean it when it gets trashed (because of the size of it) and takes up considerable time to do it.  The picture was taken in the spring, last year, it wasn't on my wedding day.  Once a year, I gather up all of my stuff, and I polish all my wheels (which I absolutely hate to do, if you can find someone to do it cheaply it is a bargain trust me) and I also do the alum and the bumpers.  This process takes about 55 hours to do it all. 

The rest of the time it is just, wash, wax and shine (Imron doesn't have to be waxed just throwing that in) and then stylin' on the boulevard.

She has no say so on my T-shirts, I am the King of My Castle (and she says it is okay for me to say that) ...  T-shirts are becoming a problem these days, every time we attend a bus meet, they do not have my size. 

XLFB (Extra Large With A Full Belly)

Pretty sure, like the majority of you, the trips are going to get shorter.  For one thing, "the spontaneous let's go do that thing" is more or less dead now for sure.  It will have to be planned out, and all avenues considered before even leaving the shop, with the high price of fuel, it is now a prerequisite.

When we started out, it was around 49.9 and the seems to be no end to it in sight now, a lot of the time after fueling the bus, I feel like an Alzheimers patient in a house of ill repute ... I know I have just been screwed ... But I don't remember it.  I am now easy on the big horse while cruising down the highway and sticking with the 60-65 mph limits (self imposed) trying to conserve whenever I can.

So for the time being, while we can afford it, we will keep making regular contributions to the Oil Executives Retirement Fund and like you say ... Traveling less but enjoying it more.  We don't go as often ... But by gawd, we still be steppin out in first class every now and then and will as long as we can.

BCO

What we need is to set up some kind of time share only with busses!   ;) Then you can drive your 40 mpg toad someplace and stay in old man Glines bus in Florida while he is back in Indiana. Something along those lines! Sometimes the obvious is right in front of our faces!!  :D

I also like the clean look of clear LED's that glow red and amber on activation.

Is there any DOT regulations on marker lamps that are clear and glow red and amber?

I have bought lamps from www.craigrsales.com (http://www.craigrsales.com) under his American Superlights area.  I originally ordered clear but changed to red and amber.

VAN HAGAN:  I will be in St George, Utah signing autograps and what knot.

  As this is a non sanctioned whatever and open to everyone ... does this mean we have to bring our own donuts?

One of my Eagle buddies from Belen, New Mexico, does the same thing, lays 'em out under his coach at bus meets.  We are switiching over the docking lites to LED and that will be what we will use for porch lites in the future.

ED HACKENBRUCH  I have gone to Goodwill and bought cheap long sleeve shirts to wear when working on the bus, that way i don't have grease and oil all of the way up to my shoulders.....if i remember to wear them.    Wash them a few times until they get torn or won't come clean anymore then use them for throwaway rags.

Never considered that, this is a good idea.  I have some trash shirts that I use, and I wear overalls in the shop, carry some in the coach for emergencies.

DEBDAV:  I also like the clean look of clear LED's that glow red and amber on activation.

The only D.O.T. reg's I came across were the size of the tail lights (area shown so many cubic inches) and that is about it.  They are on trucks all over the nation, if there were going to be a problem it would have surfaced by now.  In the beginning they got into trouble because of no reflectors built into the lights, but that has been addressed. 

LuvRbus (Clifford) doesn't like them because they have no side lighting, but that too, has been corrected.  You can now purchase them where they can been seen from the side.  I have passed both D.O.T. and Law Enforcement in several states and have no problems, other than the occasional "safe driving award" for my lead foot.

The only apparent drawback I have found with their use is they do not build up enough heat to melt snow and ice, but if you are out in snow and ice with a bus, you have bigger problems to deal with believe me. 

We have run them both ways, colored and clear. 

It is best to make up your mind first (clear or colored) as the cost of retroffiting a bus is prohibitve and I was lucky enough to have a dumptruck guy take the old one's off my hands.  I personally prefer the clear.


Thank y'all for your replies,

OMG my side hurts and I have tears in my eyes.  This is the funniest string I've read in years!!  The photos are classic. 

I can SO relate to that silent prayer... "Please let us get through one trip where I can just hop in the bus and drive it again and my "to do" bus list hasn't doubled."

I have lied about my fuel mileage so often I don't even feel guilty anymore.

Been there ... Done that ... Really did not make the wife happy.  We were at a comedy club, sitting in the first row, and I had checked my watch a couple of times, and this comic says to me ... "Are you taking medications?" and I said "No." 

Then he pops off with "Then why do you keep checking your watch?"

So I replied, "I was wondering what time you were going to get funny, we cannot stay here all night."

So he said, "If you think you can do any better, then get on up here."

So I stood up, and she said "Honey No." and that is when the trouble started. 

I did about 25 minutes or so and later on the owner of the club offered me a spot on Tuesdays!

Thank you for chiming in on this impotent subject.
