Wow, how did Oshkosh sneak up on me so quickly this year???
Who's in for Black Otter 2019? What day works best? I rather liked Tuesday last year. Only downside is <not> missing out on the Van's banquet.
Thoughts?

Me! Me! Me! Plus one.
Since Tuesdsy is like Saturday to me, that works
Btw... how many years does this make that we have been going there? I would think we are due for some sort of milestone anniversary. Cause to celebrate.....more!

This will be my 8th Oshkosh, 7th in my RV-7 and 6th consecutive! I don't recall if I went to The Black Otter my first year - I drove in from Chicago and only spent one night (CJ's tent in Camp Scholler
![Surprised :o](./images/smilies/eek.gif)
).
Let's make it Tuesday. Who's got rides, and how many can you squeeze in? Right now for attendees I have:
- (2) Painless and Guest
- (1) Bruce +1
- (1) Bullock

One night in a tent with CJ.... Have you recovered yet??
I’ll have the Queen of the Fleet there, but may just have one free seat. I’m going to assume Eric S will be attending as well.

What time at the Otter?
I have room in my car for 3. I usually take CJ since nobody else can put up with him for that long!

Aiming to arrive 530ish?
There might be a slight issue....they claim they didn't order enough prime rib
![Surprised :o](./images/smilies/eek.gif)
. I am going to call them when they open at 4pm and let everyone know. We have a few alternative places picked just in case.
