Morfoots? The Morfoot's are coming too? Excellent. More great people to meet.

And I've got more good news! I just spoke to the Godfather himself, and he indeed confirmed that he'd be there along with his daughter, meeting up with us Saturday AM. How much more can we stand?! We're up to at least 10 boats now I believe.

Damn, maybe I need to take a second look at some of those Florida 210's that are just laying around.

"But honey, they make them in Florida. They are just GIVING them away down there..."

Anyhow, no travel for the 'Dog family this winter/spring. To bad, now that this thing is coming together, it looks great. The St John's looks like a must do.

Okay, Looks like you guy's will have to put up with us "Morfoot's" too. Just booked the last cabin at Parramore's. Guess I gotta drain a tank of gas outta the boat and get her ready for the trip. Can't see towing a full tank of gas down there. Might half to bust out a buffer too.

Forgot to mention, I don't know where any of you guys are flying into, but if it is cheaper to fly into Jacksonville, I would be more than happy to pick you up and drive down to Astor Friday evening. We have room for 2 comfortably in the Jeep and could squeeze three if we had to.

Just made my reservation at Parramore's for the 13th and 14th, site 302, just down from you, Critter. We will arive Friday evening and we will have to leave Sunday afternoon as the wife has to work on Monday.

Looking forward to finally meeting everyone!

Just talked to Reid as I said...we kinda decided that we would all meet at the public ramp about 8:30 am...if that suits everyone. Plenty of parking there. We'll all be dropping in there and you guys can idle down from your campground. Not really enough room in Reid's canal to meet there like we did last trip.

We just need to get information on where we will meeting after coffee Saturday morning.

Cathie and I will not be moving the Motorhome after we set up Friday night so it would be best to meet somewhere on the water if possible.

Maybe we can all boat over to Reids house and get some bacon and eggs before hitting the water...

I try not to rule anything out as stuff tends to come together for me at the last minute, but I don't see it happening this year.

Like the other reunions, it is bigger and better than last year and is going to be a great time. Take plenty of pictures for us guys that are dying not being there.

Wow, just noticed the posting, I'm sooo in!!! I got dibs on Eddie if needed, otherwise I call dibs on JoeinNY for a passenger!!!

If anyone's vacationing in Orlando Feb 14, I'm sure we'll be meeting up with MaddMarxx and Jbear in Orlando, like last year, and continuing on to Astor. Perhaps you can send the wife and kids to Disneyworld and catch a ride with us, the offers open.

Looks like Saturday and early Sunday for me and Patti....maybe Friday but would be hard to get away from the store we run.

Nice job Joe...on the pictures and map. Hard to believe that Goggle even has a pic of Reid's place. He must be famous!

MM, AdamT, hasbeen, how about you guys?

Talked to Moorfoot, he's leaning on coming.

Getting exciting..can hardly wait.
