" Cool! When's the last time you were there -- 2005-ish? Wasn't that the
year of the transmission?

That 'twas an expensive and not very enjoyable year. (yeck)

I have been there once since the transmission. '07, perhaps?

I didn't make it last year, 'cause my kid got married last year, on the
first weekend of August; the one that got back into flying. He was the
reason that I went the first time, by the way. I got involved in Aviation
Exploring, after he joined.

You guys should stop by the inn for the pool party on you way to OSH. If
you want, you can camp out back for nuthin', and partake in the food and
festivities!

And we call our kids geographically challenged? Have you looked at a big
map? Iowa is "not quite" on the way to OSH from North Carolina, last I
looked! g It is already a thousand miles by road, from here to there. I
don't think my back would appreciate the extra detour, but thanks for the
invite!

So, without your son flying the 'coup, you and Mary been putting some hours
on it? How about Atlas? Been putting enough exercise on him, or saving
money and flying the big guy barely enough?
