Well, I'm driving up unfortunately since my AC is down big time. However, I look forward to meeting Lee Walton and some of the other people that are going. BTW, you might want to make your reservation now since I believe there are only 12 rooms reserved. To confirm that you'd need to talk to Lee...

Rich, I think that 50% accuracy is stretching it a bit, don't you?!

To quote a very wise man, "I'm only happy when you are unhappy."

Karma is a #!$&@ don't you agree? :)

Lee,

I have a reservation and plan on being there by noon on Friday. Steve Peirce is not coming now, so I will be solo.


Larry...

I will be there. So far the temps are coming down on 78DW so if the surface winds are favorable it will be my first gathering and my first xc with the fresh overhaul on my bird.

So far I plan on heading down Saturday for the full day and will probably come back Sunday. We will be staying over in Tell City at Adrienne's parents' house which is why I won't be camping out. Friday I won't be able to make it due to work unfortunately. One of my friends will be flying down with me in his cessna 120 to hang out and meet people. He is currently rebuilding a Midget Mustang and did the restoration on his 120. He's an EAA member from Hancock county airport by owensboro, ky.

I'm excited to see you all there and show off my ugly duckling!

Les and Margie Conwell plan to be there, but not flying our substitute T-18, the GP-4 (it is OK but tough to get out of!!). We plan to camp out there in the RV park arriving Thursday. Fly safe....Les

David & Karen are heading down on Thursday afternoon. Karen is thinking about making reservations at the Oasis bar and grill that we went to the last couple years on her way past for Thursday evening.
