We will have to find some cheesecake, PW maple is great on cheesecake or maybe just pancakes. Bill
Great idea Bill! When Luke B. and I retrieved my '51 Flying Cloud two weeks ago, we stayed in motels that featured large single waffle makers at their continental breakfast counter. I'll whisper in Luke's ear about powering a few 120 VAC waffle makers with quiet Honda generators, and I'll bet he comes up with a solution that will allow us to pour maple syrup.
As for the cocktail hour gatherings that Michael mentioned, the VAC always takes care of its own, and welcomes others who like to imbibe and chat, under its big outdoor tent. That's where I can be Happily found.

Fred,
If this gets to be too big of an event, it may become BYOMS (bring your own maple syrup). Since Paul has retired, I have to ration my small remaining supply, but PowerWagon friends are always welcome to share. How about a pot luck waffle lunch after one of the VAC meetings?
Regarding the VAC happy hours, everyone is welcome, just bring your vintage attitude.
Bill

Michael,
We will be up in that area, but will probably only be spending a couple of days at the rally. Claxton's (2aspirin)--you met them at the Branson Fall Rally--will be with us. I assume additional info will be forthcoming on this thread as to where & when the Air "get together" might be. I look forward to seeing you again.

Hi Bill:
Yes, I saw where Paul retired from the maple syrup business, so existing supplies of his single sap maple syrup will soon approach the high value of some single malt scotch whiskies. I'll be happy to share a waffle or two with you anytime, anyplace, N-E-W (for older New Yorkers).

You didn't hear about the yellow ribbon? I thought everyone had. Maybe don't ask your dad though - he might get embarrassed .
Just kidding - I'm thinking the same thing - yellow ribbon? Why does he wear a yellow ribbon? Hmm, now that did not show up on the back of the '08 Membership Directory.
Or is there some secret code thingy that only people with a magic decoder ring can figure out and if so, what cereal are they all eating?
