Do Gail and I have dibsies on the Apollo Suite since we swapped Oshkosh for
Alaska last year?

Warning! Danger! Shameless Self-Promotion!

After four years of preparation and two years of work, the "Oshkosh
Suite" -- our 17th aviation theme suite -- is finally complete!

Have you arranged for OSH lodging yet? I (did not) pre-sign you up for the
AC dorm.

BTW, I still have the Jim Weir (memorial) OSH chairs - they might be making
a trip to Sun & Fun this April. g

Things are firming up from our end -- hopefully they're still okay
from yours? If so, we *will* be attending SNF '07 in April, even if I
have to crawl to it on my hands and knees...

Jim, have "The Chairs" ever been to Lakeland? If not, we'd be glad to
set them up on the flightline for you while we're there. Or do you
think there is some sort of bad karma associated with setting them up
outside of the hallowed Oshkosh grounds?

No, I've only been to SNF once, about 30 years ago. It was OK, sort of, but
nothing to make me travel diagonally across the country for again. That is
one mother long trip from Northern California, even IF we did it on the
torch.

I like SNF because (a) it gets me out of winter for a few days, and
(b) it reminds me of Oshkosh, when I was young(er)...

That, and any fly-in/air show that serves strawberry Margaritas ON THE
FIELD is okay by me....

Darned tootin' you do -- I'll pencil you in!

Glad to hear you'll be making it back to OSH '07 -- it'll be our
"Silver Anniversary Oshkosh", beating our Silver wedding anniversary
by several years...

I told Mary that this milestone automatically qualifies us for a golf
cart at OSH. Now all we've gotta do is convince EAA!

Maybe I can fit one of those little electric wheelchairs in the back,
if I leave the kids home...?

;-)

You gonna make it to OSH this year, Bob?

You know, Bob, I'm starting to think you don't like us anymore...

;-)

Seriously, you really *need* to fly into OSH. Even if you only do it
once, it's one of those logbook entries that needs to happen.
