The deets on this year's RV Family Reunion at Oshkosh have now been finalized and are available at:
http://home.comcast.net/~bcollinsrv7a/eaa/
For those of you who have never been to the event before, I've provided some updated directions. There are lots of changes at Oshkosh this year and I still have to get some updated maps but they're not available yet.
A lot of the campground has gone high-end with $40+ a night electrical/water hookups for the crowd that wants its camping without any discomfort (which isn't camping at all, actually). I'm not sure yet whether that'll push the "little people" further out into the field earlier, but I'm pretty sure we'll be able to stake out our usual spot in time.
Anyway, at this time I'm asking for RSVPs so I can get a "rough" headcount. I've gotten pretty good over the years at coming up with a formula to calculate actual turnout based on the number who say they'll come (it's a lot like figuring out which size wire to use based on ohms, amps and watts).
Anyway, if you're interested, go there and RSVP. If you're not, carry on.

(Updating)
We found out today that the area of Camp Scholler in the middle of the field -- a delightful place for old-time, grassroots camping -- is being pushed aside for the 24-hour generator area, which was being uprooted by all the new electrical/water hookup sites.
Unfortunately, this has been the spot where we've always hosted the RV BBQ during Oshkosh.
I'm trying to figure out a Plan B. At this rate we'll be across the street in the WalMart parking lot.

I haven't been since 1995 and I envy all those that are going. I would
like to send out some positive energy. It's not all lost at the Wally
location. Think of the incredibly short beer runs! Enough of those and
it won't matter!
