Man I miss you all! You should try to stop and see us in Door County if you are traveling this summer. I'd rather rally with my friends but its time to reinvent ourselves “recareer” and embark on a late-in-life second act. Oh brother, cross your fingers, we are in for a bumpy ride!!

We just might do that Carol. Maybe you can introduce us to that hamburger that everyone has been raving about. Can we get a Beer with that Burger?

Life is Good!!! Bill

Yeah it's been quiet, cat got your tongue?

Break out the tunes that will get us moving.

Speaking of cats and dogs Brad said a woman came to the shelter with a picture of her missing dog. Hope she finds him.

I'll be heading to Ohio to the factory next month, then a quick stop home and off to Wisconsin. We can arrive as early as we want but don't start working until the middle of May. Just heard Lapeer County unemployment is up to 16.9 as of January.

Airboss · 03-23-2009, 08:53 PM

Lets hope she finds it by the crack of Dawn CJ....

You make me laugh! So what is everyone doing? The weather is starting to get so nice and mild. Time to walbernize!!!

Still have knee deep snow in all of the garden and most of the lawn. The snow is slowly receding from around the airstream. If only we had a few more sunny days! It's 34 and cloudy right now.

Hello all,

We will be in the UP the month of August, and would like to attend your rally. Is there a weekend set for this yet??

We would love to have you. I am 98% sure that we will be the first weekend in August. I have not contacted the park yet because I do not think they open yet.

Hi All, did you miss me!?! Snowmobile season is over for me, the sleds are getting ready for their hibernation, time to get back on Air Forums and off the snowmobile forums. I'll have to find the time to go back to the beginning of this thread and play catch up and to see what FFA has been up to. Hope to get Felix out of storage first part of April, as long as the snowmobile trailer is ready to go into storage. The snowmobile trailer is in need of new brake parts, bearing seals and a good wash and wax. While looking into brake parts, I found that it's cheaper to buy two whole new assemblies then just the few parts I need. Good thing I have the same 10" Dexter brakes on the snowmobile trailer and Felix, now I'll have a few extra parts on hand. Lunch half-hour here at work is about over, type ya later.

Derek

P.S. Renee, Felix and I will be at the rally, planing on taking Friday off of work this year and maybe even show up Thursday night.

Rhonda · 03-25-2009, 01:44 PM

I was just wondering were you and Renee were up too. We are all glad snow season is over! We don't have the winter fun that you two do. Sounds like you have quite the to do list. It's always something isn't it!

See you in August!

Hi Y'all, I need to ask a new guy, dumb ass question. I know someone here will know. I joined the WBCCI and received the members packet. I had thought about going to the international rally in Madison. I found a pre-registration form to fill out......My wife and I were planning to go, along with my daughter and her college roommate. My question is with the fees. It lists:
Rally fees/adult #attending____ $125 ______
Rally fees/Youth #attending____ $60 ______
Airstream Parking $45 ______

Is the fee per-person? 125+125+60+60+45= $415

thanks, Bill

Rhonda · 03-25-2009, 04:14 PM

Scary as it is the answer is yes. Ralph, Laura and Carol can tell you what you get for that $$$.

wheel interested · 03-25-2009, 04:54 PM

You'll get pumped out once or twice (should be twice) and daisy chain water and share electric so 3 amp will keep the batteries, and fans going. Free ice cream cup by the new Airstream models and entertainment some evenings. Should you add electricity for AC and that is another $235. The early workers and officers get the best deal of pancake breakfasts and appeciation dinners and up to a month stay for the same rally fee as you will be paying. I think one year the New England Unit caravan decided to save money and get more by staying offsite and had full hook-up, hot tub, swimming pool, pavilion, picnic tables and grills, store, grassy site with shade tree and paved pad. But would you believe they wouldn't let them into the rally unlesss they paid the full rally fee and not a day pass amount as they were expecting!!!

You will have to excuse me I am always on the WBCCI's collective case to lower costs to reflect what the average member does actually receive and participate in.

But you gotta do it at least once because it is an experience like none other being in a group that large full of Airstreams. A city goes up overnight and each day it grows larger. There is a lot of excitement in finding your friends and making new ones.

I guess I did not realize what a great deal the Milan Rally was last year and it was good, REAL GOOD!!!!! Thanks Dave and Rhonda

Thanks for the info Carol. They most likely don't offer a 3 or 4 day package? The form mentions a increase in fees after January 1st. Does the price go up some more if you wait to sign up until, May? I read your post on the WBCCI forum about a 60's rally. I came of age in the seventies, but count me in. Bon fires, rock music, bar-b-que, maybe a little dancing. Life is good!
