I bought a November 1941 issue of "Flying and Popular Aviation".

It makes sense, when you don't think about it.

I bought a down throw at Target. Other than camping and wristbands on
the credit card, everything I spent was on food. Only spent $200 cash
(total) up there, Sunday through Friday.

Wow -- how could you spend six days walking through the world's biggest
candy store without buying any chocolate? :)

I admire your self-discipline...

Remember... I had two kids I was following around.
They weren't interested in that stuff.
They did pick up the freebies, though.
As soon as I stopped to look at something I was interested in, the
whining (no, not the jet engines starting up) and tugging (it felt like
I was and aircraft being moved about) began. That's why I missed the
CMap GPS booth, among other things.
I was supposed to buy a new set of air scoops for the Champ while I was
there, but the kids wouldn't let me wait for a salesperson.

Huh? With Culver's close by, you expect anyone to forget about
chocolate?

Cool stuff:

1) 9/27 tower controller saying "Nice job white Cessna" after putting it
down 100 ft. past the white dot
2) Chance to meet rec.aviation folks. Hey, I even have a face and name to
put with "Montblack".
3) T-shirt that says "Dreams do come true" with a penguin dressed in
parachute/leather flying hat standing in front of a cub. Had the hardest
time deciding between that and two other similar shirts.
4) 16.4 hours xc time in my logbook and a chance to fly my longest xc to
date, with my brother (and the blessing of our wives to boot).
5) 120+ MB of digital pictures

well, when you are into a threesome and mom comes along ... I think this is
doable. :-)
hm, but the age-difference is more in favour of bringing someone of your
own age along ... well, there are only a few things that can be beaten by a
threesome. Acro flying might be one of it.

Hmm, what did I get at OSH?

1. A sunburn
2. Some mosquito bites
3. A hat, a shirt and other tourist trappings.

And...

4. I got a lot of fantastic memories from my first (of many hopefully) visit
to AirVenture!
