In Idaho, tossing a rattlesnake into a crowded room is felony assault.
In Tennessee, it's evangelism.

this year now that we sold all the business we may be able to stop by the
poll party and arrive like everybody else hope to see you all soon ( Yes the
work search will dictate if we can make it LOL)

George, George, GEORGE.

We've been attending Oshkosh for 22 straight years.

To put that in perspective, in 1982 I was 23 years old, a year out of
college, working as an entry level district manager in a small-town
newspaper, and still DATING Mary.

Since then, I've worked for four different newspapers, started three (and
closed two) businesses, gotten married, had two children, moved three times
(once to a different state), and made, lost, and made (and may lose) a
fortune.

In ALL that time, the ONLY constant in my life has been Oshkosh.

Oshkosh ain't heaven, but it's damned close. Don't miss it -- for anything.

OOOOHHH!! Don't let Mary hear you say that!

Well, I meant BESIDES her, of course. When taking the long view of life I
tend to think of us as a single unit.

Oshkosh has been the only constant in OUR lives.

Well...not exactly crawling out of my skin (an image I didn't really need of
you Jay)...but definitely getting ready for the big adventure heading there
from the left coast. Plan is to be wheels up Saturday at 7:00, call it a
day in Scottsbluff, NE, then arrive in Fon du Lac Sunday afternoon...all
weather permitting of course. You did order up some good weather, right
Jay? :-)

Looking forward to seeing everyone Wednesday or if we manage to bump into
one another during the week.

Okay, it looks like it will be the "stretch"-182 this year, same as last
year.
Another club member has the airplane until Monday night, but in the
event he gets back early, I may arrive by Monday night, weather
permitting. If I leave Tuesday morning, I'll be there by noon.

Let me know what the food/shopping situation is for those of us campers
who dont fly our food in. I hear the options nearby (piggly wiggly and
walmart) are getting scarce.. No hurry on my account.. this is planning
for next year..

Maybe EAA or the FBO will bring a vendor in who can provide the
perishables and disposables within walking distance next year.

Dave, there are other sources, just a couple blocks farther to walk.
The AirVenture page has a link with a list and YaHoo maps.
An Aldi and a Pick N Save are about a mile over by the highway.
