Is it wrong that I don't want to go to OSH?

I tell you what, I have been on a roll lately and I just want to stay here and work on the plane!!!

:lol:

Last night Billy came down and helped me line up all the control surfaces and do some epoxy and today I riveted in all the platenuts. I could probably take the wings off if I had assistance.

I would THEN feel like I got enough done and reward myself with a trip to OSH.

Oh well, you get done what you can get done...

Looks like I need to pack now. I will be getting up early tomorrow morning!

See all you plane-aholics out there!

It IS wrong that you don't want to go to Oshkosh Capitan :lol: Get your a$$ out of the house early morning and drive, drive, drive. Eat Otter triple stack, drink all peoples' beer and be back at your bungalow in Rangeley, Maine on August the 4th! I am bringing royalty chocolatt :mrgreen:

I was on the fence about actually getting to go to OSH this year, but other things popped up. No doubt in my mind about WANTING to go though!

Ya'll have fun out there! :beer:

You are cleared to land on the YELLOW dot. Welcome to Oshkosh.

Ellen and I are westbound on I-90 between Syracuse and Buffalo. We're gonna be up before the sun tomorrow so we can sneak around Chicago before rush hour. :o

I didn't get quite as far on the project as I wanted to before we left. But I only have one thing left to do before pulling the canoe apart for prep and riveting, and that's not enough to keep me from Oshkosh...we're ready for a vacation, I have airplane stuff to buy, and we have the Otter to visit!
