Sorry to hear that Craig. Next year hopefully.

To all other Rivetbangers attending, the show will go on. Including Craig, we have had other changes in attendance. So goes Sloshkosh.

Looking forward to seeing all those that can attend.

If I continue to feel like I have this week and don't make another dumb mistake like last week I WILL be at the OTTER & OSH.

I plan to arrive OSH show Thursday hotel is a mile from field so I'll check in on way to dinner and have room for 3 passengers.

Plan on spending a little time Thursday afternoon and most of Friday if all goes well and it isn't too hot.

See you guys soon, you cant imagaine how much I am looking forward to it.

Hey Jeff,

There's a good chance my wife and I will have to cancel due to a conflict neither of us anticipated. I should know by tomorrow PM. Sorry for the churn.

I have limited comm at Sloshkosh, could some mention the full name or at least what town it is in. I know I should have looked it up before I left.

Don, just looked it up for you. It's called The Black Otter in Hortonville.

No problem Dave. I called the Otter yesterday and told.them to expect a few less of us than anticipated. Either way, they will be able to accommodate however many of us show up.

Jeff, it's looking pretty iffy for me at the Otter this year. Shucks. I was so looking to meet the gang. I'll try, but...

Thanks,

George

Looks like I will be there, alone.

God I wish I could drink.

I love you guys.

Looks like next year for me.
We are leaving the show today so we can make a stop at Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome on the way home.
Sorry for the change up.

Wow, whats going on with the show this year. The rain has slowed it down, and now our dinner is falling apart. Do I need to fly out and start whoopin up on you boys? I was looking forward to the war stories.

As Brad noted, we went for quality over quantity this year Spike.

We had 7 rivetbangers and two guests I brought. Small group for sure. Not to worry, we still picked on Chad.

I must report, however, that we did not uphold the RB tradition, in that NONE of us got the prime rib!

Looks like you need to come out here next year and set things straight Spike. Pictures to follow from various sources.

Wow. Sounds like a great time with a smaller group of friends. I expect to make it out there next year. We have had some crazy things going on here in the past couple of months. I am looking forward to a full report on osh and avionics from you all.

Jim,

Sorry that I am gonna miss you.

OK, I will bite. What is wrong with the one you have?

I missed you guys.

I made it to OSH but within two hours was in the Med tent.

I guess it was too soon after the cancer surgery.

I had to talk my way out they weren't going to let me leave but I cooled down there, got fluids and rested.

They drove me to my truck and I cranked up the AC and got lots of Gatorade and made it back home last night.

It was a beautiful day it was just too soon for me, sorry.

Didn't even get to see the show and man am I hurting this morning. Just woke up.

Be good all, see you next year.

Get yourself all fixed up. This is one time being selfish is ok.

Maybe you and some of the newbies will make it next year
