Breaks into the Bird, then the electric slide, and finally.......the oak tree.

I think it's some small town in upper New York.   :)

I've been ALL over MN this summer doing storm claims.

I'm in Sioux Falls, SD.  A few others are as well.

I was just curious.  Was talking to a guy who I've known for years from the local gas station and AHII came up.  Turns out he played years ago for a few months.  Got me wondering who else I may have run into.

Well, I'm just up the road a bit in Hopkins.

I actually got to talking to a guy I work with and found out he used to fly AH2 a few years ago, and other guy that appears to still frequent LW.

I'm down in Eagan.  I've met CorkyJr once.  Good guy too.

Shoreview here.    CorkyJrs the best.   Rebel hails from the south metro area I think.  Met him and Yak at get together once at a flight-themed cafe down in Mendota Heights I think it was.  As I recall, Yak brought his copy of America's Hundred Thousand and Rebel brought his little sister.  
Might be fun to have another get together.   The restaurant is still there though its name has changed - but it has a P-40 replica mounted on the signpole.  Can't miss it!
