OK folks.

Nominate your favourite B&B in the Oshkosh area. This is our first trip.

Skip the B&B and stay in the North 40. Sorry, but camping with your plane
is the only way to really experience OSH.

Take it from someone who's attended 25 years in a row -- 15 driving (and NOT
camping in the North 40), and 10 flying in.

B&Bs are wonderful...the other 51 weeks this year...

The Green Fountain out in Waupaca. www.greenfountaininn.com I recommend it
highly ONLY if you have ground wheels; it is a 45 minute trip from the
field.

Darryl, if you are reading, chime in here. Was the place OK by you two?

Hey Jim, you going by air or 0 AGL IFR this year? I'm likely going via
aluminum tube in order to keep costs down. Not as much fun but beats
not going.

Can't comment on the B&B situation, but I've gone twice on short notice
(booked hotel within 3 weeks), and stayed at a Hampton and a Holiday Inn
Express. One time I was south, the next time northwest of the show. Both
times it was about a 45 minute drive to Oshkosh, and the hotels were
excellent.

I didn't consider the drive much of an impediment at the beginning and end
of the day, but I only attended the show for 2 days - enough for me to see
everything I wanted.

BTW, if Springbank is anything like the south end of Calgary today, I
wouldn't count on putting in any air time today ... Last weekend I was
raking the lawn in a t-shirt and shorts, today I'll be shoveling snow (a lot
of snow).

Ha! 79 degrees last Saturday, about 40 degrees today. At our house in the last
two hours, we've had sun, rain, sleet, snow, and hail. All we need is a
thunderstorm and a tornado to round out the day.

Gawd, I love Seattle.....
