Default Oshkosh Housing???

No, I picked Waupaca because somebody emailed me the name of a particularly
delightful B&B in town (Green Fountain) that is LESS EXPENSIVE than the
dorms, if you can believe it.

We are having some transportation problems. The only car rental agency in
town (the local Ford dealership) is tapped out that week, and the Enterprise
in Stevens Point is closed on Sunday. I really need to get to and from the
field on Sunday to pick up my credentials, parking pass, and schlep the
usual 50# box of forums crap to the forums office. I'm fighting that battle
right now, and don't know how it is going to turn out.

If you've got a contact for a hangar, that would be wonderful. If you want
to search your contacts to have somebody "loan" me a car for four days with
the upfront handshake that there will be a lost envelope on the drivers seat
with pictures of old dead presidents after the fact (so there won't be any
trace or hint of "rental" liability beforehand) that would be better yet.
My insurance covers me and the vehicle for any "borrowed" vehicle.

Hmm... you picked Waupaca because there's a strip joint right across the
road from the airport, right?

I have a few contacts at PCZ, would you like me to check on a hanger for
you? email me if yes.

Simpsons is a great supper club located on Main St. downtown Waupaca,
great
steaks. If you're on the chain-o-lakes, the Clearwater Harbor Bar has
great
burgers, the Wheelhouse for great home made pizza.

Thanks for all the info, gang. Right now it looks like a B&B in Waupaca

and
a rather inexpensive rental car for the hour drive. Don't give me that
"wussy" crap, Honeck, remember I've got well over 20 years on you {;-)

Is the Apollo suite available Saturday night?
