My wife and I rode our mountain bikes to it. It is around 5-8 miles up-creek from Johnson's Creek. You could easily borrow the courtesy van from Johnson Creek to go up and visit them, I'm sure they will come pick up at Johnson's Creek. This is the plane that flys into Johnson Creek to drop off the guests.

Grandpa, Dad, and the kids are looking forward to a few nights in the tent. I have heard that there is a lodge there or at least near there so that both groups can be happy. Is that the case? If so, has anyone stayed at the lodge?

A store, a bar, and there was someone selling cool wood carvings. Not too many of these towns left. We needed groceries but it was closed. One of the locals said we could find her at the corner bar. Sure enough she was there and opened the store for us. They do have an 18 hole golf course. You'll want to rent their clubs. The RV-10 is great for that strip, you will have fun. -Scott Sent from my iPhone On Mar 31, 2010, at 8:31 AM, "Albert Gardner" wrote: Thanks Scott.

They seem to leak, bind, or come apart. A friend showed me an integrated ball swivel connector that looked sweet, but he said they were $20 a piece. After searching around I found these on sale for $5.33 They are good quality and much more user friendly than the other design. http://www.tooltopia.com/acme-automotive-a918n4bs.aspx -------- Myron Nelson Mesa, AZ Emp completed, QB wings completed, legacy build fuse in progress Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=292546#292546 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 05:53:42 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Bose headset X - on sale at Sportys $845 From: "AirMike" I notice that Sportys is selling this headset for $845 which is an unprecedented price for this awesome headset. Usually when the mfg drops the price like this ($150) it is to reduce inventory in anticipation of a new model being released. The aviation X headset has been around for 10-12 years now and the competition my be eating their lunch. Other brands have bluetooth and I-pod/phone connectors. Does anybody have any information on the possibility that Bose is going to release a new model headset at Sun-n-Fun or at Oshkosh????? -------- OSH '10 or Bust Q/B - phase 1 / painting Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=292588#292588 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 06:54:42 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: First Flight From: "Lew Gallagher" I've been trying to think of something momentous to say, but my thoughts are just overwhelmed with, "THE DAMNED THING ACTUALLY FLIES" !!! For those that keep the records, N620EB, owned and piloted by Wes Bean took off twice and landed twice for the first time today here in Greenville, SC. Very nice. On first climb out, the oil pressure alarm went off, so he did a quick turn around and landed. Warmed it up some more, and second flight stayed in the green the whole 50 min. Standard big grin! One EGT sensor seems to have stopped working, otherwise all is good. I'll see if I can edit the movies and figure out how to post on YouTube or something.
