This was my view last week.
We spent a week in Oshkosh, WI to attend EAA(Experimental Aircraft Association) air show. Oh my what an event, the amount of people, aircraft, campers, bikes, golf carts and ATV's was absolutely amazing. A full week of events from seminars to watching aircraft flying around and of course afternoon and evening airshows. The hubby likes to attend the events and I liked staying in the camper happily sewing away! I did go up to see exhibits a couple of mornings with him and the evening air shows. But for the most part I could see lots of aircraft flying as they flew out past us campers.

This is just a very, very small portion of campers there for the show. We camped in the section where we could use generators so that we could use the air conditioner if needed, it was needed a couple times. Usually I just had the fan on but that also needed electricity from the generator as well as my sewing machine and iron! Campers were close together with no real designated spot, once you checked in at the gate you drove around to find a spot you wanted to park. We met a very nice couple from Iowa that were parked just across from us. We spent a late afternoon chatting with them, some might call that happy hour;) She had done some quilting in the past so we chatted about that, she was a bit envious of me sewing in the camper each day. I usually had the big gate of the camper down and as people went buy they would see me sewing away! A couple of them had to ask what I was making.

These guys flew many, many times and boy do they get loud, but also very graceful looking at times. It's very hard to get a good pic of them as they speed by, hubby pulled this from a video he took.
Here is a short video of one aircraft for you.
During my sewing time there I worked on my Gobble it Up table runners.
Many wedges sewn across the short ends...
turned into 200 turkey feathers...
Which turned into 10 Gobble it Up table runners. These are from my pattern which is in my Etsy pattern shop HERE.
