Todd,
 
 Not sure where "the majority of rotary builders" live though I'd guess Florida. But there are at least 4 of us in San Diego (two on my airport). I'm sure there are quite a few of us west of the Rockies. I think you'd be surprised at the potential turnout. The Pacific Northwest is certainly easier to get to for me based on simple distance as well as potential weather issues. I think it's at least worth considering a west coast gathering (even if you cant be coerced into hosting).

I’d love to host a fly-in someday, but the reality is that it’s not really practical given the distance from the majority of the rotary builders. However if any ever do venture this far north, my door is always open. We are on the flight path to Alaska for many traveling from the western states. So if any of you have thoughts of an Alaskan visit be sure to stop in. Previous to buying this property, we were very close to buying another about a mile away, which has a riverfront field with room for a 1300’ runway, but then they decided not to sell. Too bad as I really did have dreams of hosting a fly-in there. Probably just as well, surely I would have lost a few guests to the mosquitoes.

 

Apologies for all the non-rotary stuff.

Todd:

You should consider organizing a Rotary fly-in up your way someday; and on day two when we're all talked out on 13/20B's, we could go out and spend a day helping you with your archeological "dig".  Most of us are WW II nut cases and would love the chance to help unearth some WW II a/c parts...  :)
