5 Flights to Make Before You Die
I personally would like to make a return trip to Iowa City, which I would
rank as one of the most under rated spots in the country. There are both great food and lodging to be had there, and the FBO is pleasant and comfortable. You will never hear complaints about them catering to the kerosene burners. Fuel prices are reasonable. The town (not really a city in the true sense) is clean and safe. There are all of the arts and cultural activities associated with a large university town. Who could ask for more in a trip? I personally think Mackinac was a little over rated. It is solely for tourists, expensive, and a bit tacky. It is hard to distinguish from any other tourist oriented place when walking in town. It is worth seeing, but not a great experience, as compared to the Badlands, Yosemite, etc. The best part is the horse drawn taxi ride.

You *know* there's always a cold one on ice for ya here...! :-) I hope you guys can zip down here for the Pre-OSH Fly-In Pool Party again.

Jay:
Are you and Mary going to be in town during the Memorial Day weekend? We may try to make another overnight trip (it's only an hour ride). However, for us to go away takes more logistic planning than the Normandy invasion- kennel both dogs, no conflicts with Air Force or hockey, not on call, etc. Wish we could just jump in and go.
