The BLack Otter sounds good to me if we can do it around 7pm.

You pretty much have to go right past my house to get to this place. The best way from OSH is to go North on 41 to 76. North on 76 to 15. West on 15 to Hortonville. Take a left at the First stoplight in Hortonville. Black Otter is on the right about 1/4 mile. My house is right at 76 and 15.

If anyone needs a ride or anything, let me know.

I mentioned to Luke that we were going to be finding a different place to eat. He said they all sounded great to him, as long as they have food!

He gets the wires off his jaw tomorrow and after being wired shut for 6 weeks and on a liquid diet he is ready for about anything. Not sure he will be knawing on a steak by Tuesday but I'm sure he will find something!

My vote goes for either the Black Otter, or driving to the other Prime Quarters. We can do a BBQ at the RB house on Monday night or Wed night depending on other things that are going on.

We may also have an additional couple staying with us for a few days who asked about it tonight at my EAA chapter meeting. But not sure of their dining plans just yet. They are driving from Massachusetts so they will be able to provide additional transportation if needed.

Excellent. Well try the Otter. Patti will be calling today and talking to them.

Spike -

I have one more for dinner on Tuesday! An RV-4 / 757 driver from St. Paul. (my flight instructor Doug Weiler) ...so count me in for two rather than just myself.

...and my car is now full for the trip with Chad and his Pop in addition to Doug and myself.

Spike,

You might want to give Chip a call on his cell phone and find out if he wants to join us as well. He's on the latest Word file listing I sent you tonight, but he's not a rivetbanger yet.

Wherever it is I am still in. I am solo and will have a rental car (staying in dorms)... let me know if anyone needs a ride.

Cheers,

Have we come up with a plan yet? I am leaving for OSH tonight and will not have Internet access after this evening. Could someone call me on my cell at (917) 282-7642 when plans are confirmed.

Thanks.

FYI to everyone, we are confirmed at the Black Otter, 7pm on Tuesday night (they called back to let me know they got my message and that we're on the books).

Excellent, I look forward to seeing everyone.

Thanks Patti.

Sounds GREAT! Can't wait!

Womack2005 · Post by **Womack2005** » Thu Jul 20, 2006 10:45 am

Great news! See you all there

Keep us on the list for now... We are (Rob and I) still trying to get the RV-4 airworthy. Replacing an entire exhaust system today as the old one had cracked badly.

Tropical Storm "Beryl" is ruining our Friday departure, and it looks like another front is moving through on Sat.

Our plan is to hopefully have the plane ready for when it clears either Sat afternoon, or Sunday.

X-ing our fingers that the new Vetterman X-over exhaust mounts up without a hitch, and weather breaks enough to leave for OSH.

Just get into the car and drive dude, or, get to FDK on Saturday night and ride up with us.
