Oskosh EAA airshow

[Jack & Donna Smith]

I agree, great show, nothing else like it!! This year, I have heard
that Burt Rutan's "White Night" and Spaceship will be there.
We were there 4 or 5 years ago, back in the dark ages when we had our
20' Toyota.. We camped at a 'Farm Type' campground a few miles away.
They had electricity & Water, and a shuttle bus.. We needed to run
the A/C to keep the Critters cool. (No power avalable at the big
campground, and running the Generator there was a big no no).
Later, on the way home, in Kentucky, we saw "Glacier Girl"..
