Regrets from the Left Coast. After 33/34 years of dragging a ton of
aluminum from Kalifornia to Winnebago County Airpatch, Gail and I have
decided that there are other things we want to do with our big summer splash
than OSH. We may make every OTHER year, or every THIRD year, but not EVERY
year.

Sun'n'Fun? Perhaps. Copperstate? Maybe. The fact of the matter is that I
got myself elected (fancy that) to three state positions with the Community
College folks and since last year I've been to conventions in New York
twice, Philly, Los Angeles four times, San Francisco half a dozen times, and
testifying at the Puzzle Palace in Sacratomato more times than I care to
count. Bottom line is that I'm about traveled out and I've still got a
Monterey trip in June, a Los Angeles trip in June, and a Washington DC trip
over the 4th of July weekend.

Besides which, I've gotta pull the prop and send it in for looksee. My
logbooks don't show that prop having been o/h since it was put on the bird
some 30 years ago.

Have one for me.

Jim

suitable substitute. Just be prepared to take some serious razzing...)
