Hi Ken,
Funny you posted - now that I'm airborne again - I was just thinking of pinging you to see how things are going... Weather permitting - we're in... How'd your engine work out ? Last we spoke was at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub home of the worlds biggest hamburger - and - you were still running mineral oil - right ?
Regard,
Scott

Scott, it appears to be 877 nm to Monticello, is that the name of your airport? About 8 hours of flying for me. Looks like a straight line may be in OHIO, someplace called Salamon (kAMT), at 440nm would be pretty close to center. Maybe we can meet up someday, are you planning for BAC fest this year?

Ken Cook - Airboss of Connecticut has finally done it!
The long awaited and roundly anticipated fly-in at Danielson, Connecticut.
Chances are there may be a fuel price incentive to participate.
It's a great airport and Ken's home base.
To help mark this event, the Northeast Region will offer a covetted BEECH BUM Tshirt to members who meet the minimum criteria...
*be a BAC member
*fly in in your plane
Give Ken your address and size. Also tell him where your trip started for President's Trophy points.
Wish I could be there but I'm still in Canada.

Just for those not so familiar with the New England vernacular:
Johnnycake (also jonnycake, johnny cake, journey cake, shawnee cake and johnny bread) is a cornmeal flatbread that was an early American staple food and is prepared on the Atlantic coast from Newfoundland to Jamaica.[SUP][1][/SUP] The food probably originates from the native inhabitants of North America. It is still eaten in the West Indies, Dominican Republic, Bahamas, Colombia, and Bermuda[SUP][2][/SUP] as well as in the United States. In Australia a johnny cake was made with wheat meal and baked on the ashes or fried in a pan.
The modern johnnycake is found in the cuisine of New England,[SUP][3][/SUP] and often claimed as originating in Rhode Island.[SUP][4][/SUP] A modern johnnycake is fried cornmeal gruel, which is made from yellow or white cornmeal mixed with salt and hot water or milk, and sometimes sweetened. In the Southern United States, the word used is hoecake.
Hmm - I always thought they had clams or some type of seafood in it ??? Just call me Cliff...
Weather forecast is looking promising for Saturday - - - so far...
Regards,
Scott

Thanks Scott, I was not familiar with the term. Sounds a bit like cornbread to me. Also, I'm not familiar with a hoecake, but we could go down a path with the term hoedown;
'************ digressing verbage removed here *****************
Anyway, whenever your down here in the south, just remember we don't eat the road apples or the yellow snow

Hah - I've heard Ken mention Johnny Cakes a million times - I finally had to look them up myself - figured I'd save everyone else the time...
Sorry you can't make it Steve - you were at the very first BAC event I ever attended - the trash can of chicken at Tri-Cities - that was one huge batch of food...

Scott

Vernacular??? Scott this is what it say's on the box. The earliest American settlers,arriving to this new land,discovered corn and were taught by the Indians how to grow,grind,and cook this unfamiliar grain.The original Johnny Cakes were a mixture of water and corn meal spread thin and cooked before an open fire. This became their life sustaining food. Johnny cakes have been maintained through the centuries and their history and controversy have become legendary. Though we suggest a recipe which dates back to 1886,as all Rhode Islands will agree,there is only one recipe-and that is their own! Maybe more people would come if I make coffee cabinet's and Ham grinders. Ken

Hi Ken,
LOL - they sound really good - looking forward to trying them - I like cornbread a great deal... Initially - I thought they were a seafood thing - which I don't eat and would have had to skip... I'm down - Jackie is coming too... I've done so little flying lately - I'm really anxious to get back in the air - we'll see you Saturday...

Scott
