We have several rooms and beds available in a beautiful house not far from OSH. The house has two lakes, one for fishing and one with a beach for playing around in. The house is huge and is built into a hill so it is an underground house and yet there are windows all around. The scenery outside is great and is perfect for relaxing and letting your sunburn heal. If you want a nice place to take a day off of OSH then this is a great spot for that...but who would want to skip a day at OSH?

We only have a couple of folks going and would like to share the expense of the rest of the house. If you know anyone who might need a place to stay please send them our way. $500 per person for the whole week or best offer. We have rooms, beds and couches available so let me know what you want and we'll make you a good deal.

So far these are the only folks who have signed up to stay in the house so come on over!

See this is a warbird related post after all :wink: What is the proper wing loading of a P-38?

If those girls are showing up, then my suggestion is to cancel the offer for everyone else and just pay the rental balance! (and have a hot tub delivered)

I was in until I saw what I would have to room with. I'm holding out for a better offer.

Really, you have a P-38 Dude. I hope it's a three hour flight. :lol:

Its about 15 minutes drive from the house to KOSH. We should have two cars for a few to ride in and back with us each day.

You pass the REAL warbird enthusiast test if you looked at that pic and thought - "Wow. I hope they took those shoes off before walking on the P-38..." :lol:

Good luck Taigh. Hope you can cope on your own if you have to...
