B) It is not possible to spend enough time.
I must respectfully disagree to the (B). I just spent 7 days (Sunday thru
Sunday) and can tell you that I spent enough time. My feet and legs said
that
I had spent enough time by Friday.
Well, if we're going to talk about physical limitations, I must admit that I
was toast by Saturday. By Sunday, I was still able to get around the
grounds, but only by ignoring everything my calf muscles, feet and lower
back were telling me. It was really tough hiking back to the bus for the
last time, mostly because Mary wanted to beat the weather and that meant
almost jogging through the warbirds area back to the bus stop. (We were
afraid we wouldn't get out ahead of the airshow...)
But that doesn't mean I wanted to leave. What I REALLY wanted to do was
just sit my butt in a chair for a day and watch airplanes -- but there was
just no way to do that while surrounded with so many goodies! Even after 21
Oshkosh Fly-Ins, I'm still just a big kid, I guess....
Occasionally you'll see some older gentlemen who always seem to be sitting
near their planes in the North 40 campground. During the first part of the
week, I look at these guys with pity. By the end of the week, I look at
them with envy.
I always wonder if their inactivity is by choice, or by force of
circumstance...
