Subject: Pietenpol-List: Sun funMy bride Isabelle has just talked me into getting the T cranked up and heading for Florida to be at Sun -Fun in Lakeland where-ever that is. NOW, I need some input as to where when why and what. I don't want to arrive there like the boob I am and start asking dumb questions such as, " Where are the Pietenpol builders?". Where and when are the classes for the fabric applications? Do you know Doc Mosher? Have you seen Mike Cuy? Someone give me a little help or I'll just take the magneto off charge and stay home.Corky in beautiful Louisiana________________________________________________________________________________

Corky -Didn't know magnetos would accept a charge. Is it Visa or MC?Sun n' Fun is easy - they have a whole host of volunteers who do nothing butanswer questions like "Where are the Piets?" Where is such 'n such class?There is anice campground to the south of the airstrips, and everyone triesto be a gracious host.BUT - they do move things around each year, so be sure to ask. The dumbestquestion is the one that didn't get asked.Craig----- Original Message -----

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Sun funThanks Craig,I sort of figured something might be wrong with my Model T Magneto as it's been on the charger for years and that damn Ford still wouldn't crank.Isabelle and I have decided to stay in Louisiana and spend our money on ourselves and our Piet. Might even go out for dinner at Wendys. Don't want to spoil my bride and make her think I'm a big spender. Had a visit this afternoon with a Mr. Edwin Johnson who lives here in Shreveport. He is on this Piet net as he is interested in building a Piet. I let him take my set of plans and Mike's video. If that doesn't prime hisinterest nothing will. For those of you attending Sun Fun, look for him there. Maybe you can encourage him more.Corky in beautiful spring like Azalea filled Louisiana________________________________________________________________________________
