“How did you get here?” is the common question asked of the owner of the Posies Flower Truck business, Stephanie Frank.

If you ask her she will immediately say “It’s all Sky’s fault!” Who is Sky you ask? Well Sky is Stephanie’s 1965 VW Split Window bus that was purchased in December of 2017. “Owning a split window bus was a dream of mine, one that I just wouldn’t let go. I have always loved classic air cooled VW’s and I was on a mission to find one, some how, some way!” On Christmas Day 2017 an alert chimmed in on her cell phone notifying her of a post from one of the many VW groups she belonged to. There it was, the bus she had been dreaming of right down to the color and year, for sale and in all places Key West! 2 days later, the bus was in her driveway and was named “Sky” as she litteraly dropped from the sky and into her lap (or garage) you could say.

From the moment Sky entered the scene she was instantly loved by all and was hired over and over again for different events. From photo shoots, to hippie themed parties to weddings, Sky became a celebrity! “I was blown away with how much work she got! It was so much fun and she was so special from day one” says Stephanie, who has spent her entire working career in the tech world. “Sky just fell right into our wheelhouse of creative marketing with my web development company Thunder Media Group, Inc. We saw her as a tool to help bring attention to Thunder and to bring some fun into the mix.” Boy did she deliver the fun. Thunder has been privileged to work some great and well known companies in the Tampa Bay area over the last 20 years and having another avenue to bring creativity to their client base naturally happened with Sky!

Sky continues to bring the happy with a few surprise appearances around town after the addition of all the Posies trucks. She does tend to stick to just being a fun-personal bus for the Frank family as her sisters tend to do the majority of the work these days. She has earned the right to sit back and enjoy the ride!
