I have been attending that event for 15 years as a vendor. I sell aviation art, you will see a big sign indicating so. Stop by for a beer on me.

OK,


So here is my setup so far. Ramzey and I are going to fly from Oakland to Fresno at an ungodly early time and pick up Hondo. From there, we're flying up to Reno International and will probably park at the Jet Center or Mercury Aviation - just staying for Saturday. So, whatever time that ends up being with us landing, should be well before the 0830 starting time up at Steed.

Now how do we get to Steed?

Both are about 5 minutes from my apartment.  I have room for 3 in my truck if you want...
