iAM in AK!
I am!
Since I have to commit my vacation time for the entire year by Jan1, I'm committing one week for OSH. Haven't been for a couple of years, so it's time to get back there!
I fly in the day before the show starts, enjoy for 3 days, then bolt the next morning, before the weekend craziness!
I usually camp with the plane, in the area between the Hilton and Kermit Weeke's hangar. I choose that area because it's close to restauarants , the "all you can eat breakfast" in the Hilton, and it seems to be the last area to fill up, so it's a bit quieter. No lines waiting for showers or toilets is also a plus . (Better water pressure than the red shack across the field) The one disadvantage is the time spent on the buses getting to the show entrance. So I bring my bicycle!
In the past, I have hosted a Spag dinner with the fixin's for those friends camping nearby. Anybody wishing to join in is more than welcome! (Bring Wine/Beer/whatever to drink! )
Just wanted to get on board for next year.... B)
