This summer has just begun and it is FLYING BY!
Looking forward to it, but need to take a different perspective in order to prolong the perspective of a lengthly summer!
I need to think of it as, "OMG, it is 3 WEEKS away!" What will I do in the meanwhile!?!

I am very much looking forward to seeing you guys again and getting to look at planes. I pretty much drool for 7 days straight during Osh. Ill be happy to get out of work which has been taking up much of my life lately. *sigh*
Patti and I are going to be banging tons of rivets this weekend though. I can't wait for that either.

I'm scared
I am definitely going to go! I have the week off work and everything. I got camping crap together.
What am I forgetting? What sort of registration do I need to do?
...help

Just show up at the gate with lots of money. Thats all the registration you need. Well, registration is sometimes needed for the dinners. You are going to the RB dinner aren't you?

Anybody arriving on TUESDAY (the day OF the RB dinner)???
Brad Oliver and I will be there Tuesday early afternoon, and if anyone is arriving around that time, we could set up camp together...

I'm planning on arriving Sunday evening and plan on camping all week. I'll be the guy on the big orange motorcycle that looks like he just road 1500 miles in 36 hours.
Really looking forward to meeting everybody.
First time to Oshkosh for me too...

Is that because you will have just ridden 1500 miles in the last 36 hours?!?
Cool!
I did the trip in my JEEP with no top or doors back in '01. It was not that long of a journey, but nevertheless...
Chad, perhaps we will stop by before dinner, should time allow.

Well I wanted to... the day I requested the time off work and solidified my plans to go was the same day that the RB dinner registration closed

RB dinner registration doesn't close. You might be thinking of the big cookout that Bob Collins is putting together for RV builders.
We here at RivetBangers get together for Prime Rib on Wednesday night. There is not closed registration for that. Speaking of which we should probably start getting a good count together for Will.

Luke and I will be there for sure but I'm not sure if we are coming up Monday or Tuesday. In the past we have always came on Sunday and left Thursday or so. The idea this year was to come a little later in the week and then leave later. We will for sure be there for the Tuesday RB Black Otter Rendezvous.
Looking forward to meeting those I have not met before and seeing everyone else again.

ok great, I'll definitely plan on being at the RB dinner!
RB guys are the only ones I socialize with anyway!

We should set up a cell phone database so we can all find each other. I'd like to stop by campsites when people are going to be around. I missed everyone last time and doggone I ain't going to miss y'all again!

Good idea, Scott! I definitely want to hook up with as many RB'ers as possible, I don't want to be alone in that big ol' scary mess!
