Either 2 normal grills will be there again this year, or Jim Burns will
have
his "humongous" grill there Wednesday night - if it fits in the minivan or
some other vehicle. (Jim and I will figure it out in the next 30 days)

Hmm... dunno if it's humongous, but I also don't think it will fit in our
Tahoe, so we may have to gather up volunteers for several smaller grills....
and my wife is looking for volunteers to help her dig the fresh potatoes...
I figure I have to grow them, she can dig them! (duck!... dang that
smarts!) )

I have some bad news concerning the party at Jay's plane, at Airventure.

The MOAG (mother of all grills) will not be able to make the trip. The
powers that may be, in the Explorers leadership have strongly discouraged
pulling a trailer while transporting explorers personnel.

Don't feel too badly, Jim. I had been having nightmares about the MOAG
parked next to Atlas, leaving a tell-tale column of black smoke rising into
the evening sky, easily marking the location of our campsite for the EAA
gendarmes...

It may be just as well that we don't push the envelope so far as to include
a pig roast on a camp site that is labeled "No Open Fires"...

:-)

And kudos to Montblack and Jim (Burns) for stepping up. It sounds like
we've got the grill situation well in hand!

The party must go on!

Jay...

It would be an "open fire" if the lid was closed. Would it?

Randy (Who would really like to get to OSH again someday (its been 16
or 17 years) - but its not in the cards this year.)

Correction....

I typo'd : it should have read "wouldn't be an "open fire"....

My apologies.

Right. If they allow small grills, there is no more risk in a big grill,
once you think about it. The big thing is, that gas fumes are heavy, and
follow the ground, and up, (even when enclosed) to 18 inches. As long as
the burner is higher than that, no problems.

Wednesday evening, after the airshow.
(In case you make it there a day early)

North 40 Camping:
Get Jay's campsite # from the main N40 building - where the school buses
drop you off.

Bring a folding chair - or not.
Bring something to drink - or not.
Bring an appetite.

Don't wait too late (like after the airshow) to go to the N40 building,
because it will be closed IIRC.
