Oshkosh Roll Call...

I may try to crash your party. I've been sober for a while, so I
may bring bottled water or the like for other teetotallers.

PLEEZE -- bring pop, or iced tea, or lemonade -- ANYTHING but "bottled
water," lest we slip up and go into a rant about how bottled water is actual
proof of P.T. Barnum's theorem...

I'll have a jug of good ol' Oshkosh water available at the site, if you need
some.

Jay, I'm sorry, but Oshkosh water is the number one reason for bottled water. I
can't drink the stuff!! When we bring the full camping set up (meaning I'm
cooking, not eating out) I freeze tap water from home in gallon jugs to make the
coffee. Bottled water is getting to be standard if you don't like the taste of
chlorine, or chloromine.

Who's in for OSH '04?

Mary and I (and the Osh-kids) will be flying in on Monday, and staying
through the following Sunday...

(Our Rec.Aviation party is planned for Wednesday night, after the airshow,
at our campsite. Admission is a 6-pack of good beer!)

I've wanted to go since I got out of high school almost 30 years ago.
Well this year I'm going,
to be as close as Chicago.

Our son has a Tae Kwon Do Tournament during Oshkosh.

Oh well, maybe next year. Always think positive!

Enjoy every day.

SURELY you can pop up to OSH for a day or two, if you are so close!

I mean, we're talking a five hour drive, or a two hour flight...and you're
all the way from the Left Coast!

Don't miss it again -- you won't regret it.

From a fellow left coaster (Sacramento area), I hope you can make it
sometime Craig. Warning - OSH is worse that Lays potato chips...you can't
go just once.

Latest update:
I got a call from my flying club today.
The least damaged of the two 182's was returned to service last
Thursday. This is the "stretch" 182 I flew to OSH last year.
The second damaged 182 is still in the shop. The rebuilt engine is now
being installed.
Now, get this... this is a 1998 C182S. I has the full stack of new King
avionics, including the KN94 moving map GPS. I have just been informed
that, while the airplane is down, the owner is having a new, $20,000,
avionics stack installed!
As a result, he wants it kept in the local area for two weeks following
its return to service, so that, in the event anything isn't working
properly, he can have it returned to the shop immediately for repairs.
This means I may or may not have an airplane for OSH.
The one possibility that exists is the "stretch" 182 available Tuesday.
Stay tuned!

Ron and I will be driving in :-( (The plane should be finished during OSH!).
We will be camping in Sallie's Alley (volunteer camping in the vintage area).
Ron will be parking airplanes and I'll be in the Vintage Flight Line Ops
shack. Drop by and say hi! We plan to arrive the Friday before the show and
stay for the duration (or until we get sick of it, which is usually the
duration). I will bring WINE to the party as I'm an iconoclast!

Sniff...

A Californian...

bringing BEER to a party?

Certainly you jest.

You wanted to wash your hands with it perhaps?

WINE, brother WINE.
