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! Adam |

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.

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.

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. |

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. |

Joe,
I am flying out of Orlando Sunday night at around 6:30pm. Let's catch a ride together. I still have not really worked that part out. Leaving 80* weather is not my top priority. mike |

Mike I think you might be optimistic on the 80, but I agree that leaving is not high on my list of things I want to do when in Florida. We will definitely work something out when we have to get on the road, my initial plan was to just rent a car for the weekend if that starts to seem superfluous as the data approaches maybe I won't bother.

Normally, I would say 80 would be optimistic, but this winter has been really warm (well, this week is cold). January should be our coldest month and we have had 80, or near it, already. With some luck, we may see it again mid-Feb.
Told the wife all about it last night and she is excited to meet everyone as well. |

in MN, in January, 80 is a term used to describe weather where we are not.
At this very moment it is -27* F. at my house. We will not see a daily high temp above zero until mid day Friday. I think anything within 20 degrees of that will feel like it. Even if it falls short, it will be 100 (ONE HUNDRED) degrees warmer than it is here. One hundred. |

That cold weather is working its way toward us. We haven't had a cold spell like that for a few years. One good thing about it is when it gets that cold, it's too cold to snow.
Even if the temps are only in the 60's, it's still t shirt weather and you'll have the whole place to yourselves. |

I am reminded every day why I moved south. Funny thing though, I still miss the 4 seasons.

Greg, Hey dude if Kim and I are dragging ours from McDonough, then you and Amy gotta drag yours down there! We could even have...... a "Lil' Atlanta Contingent Correct Craft Caravan" headed down.

Suits me! We're not sure when we intend to roll out...mostly need some daylight on the other end to pitch our tent. My guess though, is that we'll leave early enough to enjoy some of the day on friday. As for the boat, I've gotten some help and some good advice with the parts to arrive next week. Here's hoping all will be well! |
