[Rhodes22-list] Annapolis Show and Tell - luncheon and gizmos

[Arthur H. Czerwonky]

Guys,

Now is a good time to anticipate the annual confab in Annapolis Oct 7-11.  We could converge for an overnight R22 "VIP ON TRAILERS" event at the State Park near the Bay Bridge on Thursday, swap our sea stories and lies over beer, and bring our latest gadgets, gizmos, and inferior interior ideas for critique and general abuse.  R22 display preferred, but some could only bring their camper/popup.  Now, how is that for a party!

Art

>The solution I use is simply keeping my pop-top top piece attached 24/7.  It reaches over the lip of the pop-top to insulate from rain an does not require the full PTE since the curtains and screens are attached only at night when the full PTE feature is used.  I haven't had to deal with bird droppings either, which has been nice in Florida bird country.
