Very fine and tidy self serve FBO. The concrete runway was clear of snow and ice. The grass runway had several inches of snow on it. Courtesy car is a Chevy Impala and started right up at 15* F. Electrical outlets are available to plug in your plane. Worth the visit if you're in the vicinity. I didn't get fuel but self serve is conveniently next to the FBO.

Ran out of 100ll during OSH. Would have been good if the person on duty would have let incoming traffic know. They have a handheld, but waited until I was shut down before informing me. They had no clue where the nearest fuel was.
