Panther, the MAAM link is always in my Sig. There's really no one here at SOH that's close enough to attend. Well maybe Kofs and a few from the area.


But... just to let everyone know. MAAM's WWII Weekend starts this Friday, June 5th and runs thru to Sunday, June 7th, at 5pm. Be there or be square. ;) And the link is in my Sig. LOL

Wednesday night will be my last night at SOH until Monday the 8th. And I'll be at the French Village Gate, as far as i know, most all weekend long. I might be in the hangar with the P-61 for a few hours tho to help them out. Ugh... it's not all roses as they say. Being on the go from 7am to 11pm is one long tough day. Have a beer for me guys. I'll be thinking of you all..... and hope to see someone from here at the show. Yes, hopefully I'll get a chance to get pictures... but I can't promise.

Panther, hop a flight an "come on up"!.

Gary, I am eventually going to get over for that... I think I would enjoy the amount of Re-enacting and re-enactors.... oops sorry... that's probably not politically correct anymore............... "Living History Peoples" lol.......

Hopefully it is a little dryer there than it is here.... we have had rain all day today.... Am looking forward to see a few pics... any B-17's this year?

GT182.... Sierra, Hotel, India, etc. This weekend, thanks to my wife, I am one of the designated attendants on the Deep Cut Orchid Society Greenhouse tour here in Central NJ. This is a HUMINT effort to gather information for my wife's future greenhouse, to be built in September/October. Sometime this year I am going to MAAM, come H... or High Water.

PLEASE TAKE PICTURES AND MORE PICTURES AND SHARE THEM WITH US.:wavey::wavey::wavey:

LOL... I hear that on the Orchids. The Warden got one for Mother's Day and we're not sure how long it will make it. I've never had any luck with them.

Witt, only one B-17 that I know of.... Yankee Lady for rides. She's there every year. The HellDiver will be there for the first time this year, and I wish our HellDiver could make it to see his old ride.

Cheezy, sorry to hear you're a Canadian Captive. LOL Hope you, and anyone else, can make it next year. It'll be MAAM's 20th Anniversary. If I survive this year I'll make it next year. Tho that might be last..... with politics and all screwing things up big time. You get my drift. ;)

That's all for now guys... bed time and I'm on my way up to Reading early tomorrow am. See you all on Sunday night or Monday.... God willing. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/GT182/sigpic336_1.gif
