    Sorry our schedules didn't jive and we missed each other. Hope the rain missed you today. Kids (both big and small) loved being able to touch and sit in the big trucks and Hmmwvs, unlike the Corvette Club whose members would probably have had heart attacks if a fruit drink or Philly cheese...

    thanks for the correction. I knew I'd get something wrong, just too many planes and I'm fairly ignorant of them.

    2017 LA rally

    Had fun Friday night at the park, and Saturday at the Air Show. We lined up 8 former MVs on the ramp in amongst the static display planes and helicopters. There were supposed to be around 150,000 attendees, and our lineup was as popular as the aircraft. My DSLR camera battery is toast, so I...

    2017 LA rally

    I figured that I'd come and stay until 10PM as a day visitor anyway, then leave the park for other accommodations for the night. Then I saw Tim's offer and called him and it looks like I can share his site. :naner: That's why its always nice to have good friends :-D Thanks Tim!!!

    Looks like I can't camp at Bayou Segnette. They require a 2 night minimum and I can only stay one night.:mad: I'll have to forgo the evening camaraderie and just meet y'all in the morning. :( Which road is the park gate to meet at - Lapalco Blvd or on Drake Rd at Westbank Expwy?

    I'm not bringing a trailer, just my USAF flight line van. I can only be at the park on Friday PM and have to return home after the air show on Sat. :(

    2017 LA rally

    I'll probably be there in a CUCV + trailer or M925 + trailer. Historically, most folks have to head out early on Sun to return home, so a Sunday convoy and display may be iffy. For the park, I had to dig into the LA statutes to get the park rules. Pets, firearms and alcohol are allowed with...

    Just to be clear, Tim originally said the last weekend of April, 4/29-30, but the Air Show is 4/22-23. If you are marking your calendar or asking for a wife pass, make sure you use April 22-23.
