Default OSH '07 Redux -- Part II -- The Week

Hi Jay,

Did you make it to the experimental aircraft area? I was watching for
you at our booth but never saw you...

Dean, I owe you a sincere apology. I *think* I saw you the very first
day we were there (Sunday before the show started), as we were walking
back out to the North 40.

You and another guy were carefully aiming an LED landing light (built
into the leading edge of the right wing of an experimental aircraft)
for maximum brightness from the cart path. I immediately did a 180
and started heading your way, when BOTH of my kids grabbed an arm and
literally dragged me away.

This occurred after I had stopped and talked to probably 20 people in
an hour, all of whom knew us and had a story to tell. For my son this
is what's known as "Time wasted yacking instead of looking at planes",
and they had quite literally had enough!

Was that you?
