I got called into work for a 16 hour shift because of this storm.  I'm still planning on going Sunday after I get out of work.  (I may be a little grumpy because of the lack of sleep, but I'll be there.)  I'll be wandering around with the wife and a few friends.  Look for me wearing a black baseball cap with "Sig Arms" in white letters. 

Oh, I go by the name of Ron.  I'd hate to see anyone yelling out "Obie303".  Then again, if you yell "Check 6", that'll also get my attention. :D

Let's plan around some of the WWII planes around 1030 hrs.  I'm heading out that way around 0900 hrs.  Hope to see you guys there.

"HUGE" traffic jam was putting it mildly!  The wife and I hit that jam on the pike around 0930 also.  Almost 1.5 hours later, we managed to get to the off-ramp.  My wife and I couldn't take it so we decided to take a break and come back later in the afternoon.  We arrived shorly after 1430 hrs and found that the base was closed because of all the foot traffic.  A mile walk in from where we parked (and I forgot my camera in the car too!).  But with all that waiting, it was a very nice day. 

I was very surprised at the turnout.  I'm sure we'll meet up at a 2009 show!  We'll just plan it a little better :aok
