Vero, Vonchi, Mito, Nato
(Veronica, Myriam, Guillermo, Luis)

As January 1, 2013 approaches, and I head to Toronto, Canada to begin my trip to Chile, my friends in Chile are already waiting for me to arrive. Some motorcycle trips have been planned although I'm not sure yet where we will be going. One thing for sure is that Guillermo (Mito) will be meeting me at the airport in Santiago on January 2nd. to start the party.

The Show Has Begun


"AirVenture 2012" has officially opened it's gates, and for the next seven days will exhibit just about anything you can imagine relating to aviation. Visitors from every continent, with the exception of Antartica, visit this air show. The best place to be at 3:00pm is to be seated down along the flight line to watch the daily air show. Monday afternoon you can "Fly Like An Eagle" at a free concert put on by the "Steve Miller Band". There are also many "War Bird" and this year we celebrate the 75th anniversary of one of the planes that started it all, the Piper Cub. There will be many examples of this little airplane on hand.  OK, I have to try to squeeze it all in in just a week so I better get going! Check back for updates.

Camp Scholler, Oshkosh, Wisconsin




Well, I made it to Oshkosh, Wisconsin early Saturday morning. After registering at the airport campground I found a spot to set up camp right next to the WiFi building, so I don't even have to leave the trailer to get connected. That's convenient! The weather has so far been very good, some clouds but mostly sunny with a steady breeze to keep the heat down. The show starts officially Monday morning, and the place is filling up fast. There are hordes of recreational vehicles of all types streaming in constantly. This has to be the largest campground in the world for the next week.

Annual Trip To AirVenture, Oshosh, Wisconsin

Bright and early tomorrow morning I will be leaving on my annual motorcycle trip to EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The difference this year is that the motorcycle trip will be made in a Ford F-250 Super Duty and not on my BMW K1200LT. Late last year I came across a deal on a 24 ft. Tag-A-Long travel trailer, so I bought it. I had been thinking about buying an RV to take to Oshkosh for quite some time, so when the opportunity presented itself, I jumped on it. No more having to worry about the weather and a little more room as well.
