We are leaving today to go over to the East coast until Weds. My folks will be arriving from Maine shortly after that. (YEAH!). They'll spend the next 5 months just 2 miles up the road from me.

I'll do my best to attend the next planned get together will everyone and looking forward to it!

LOL... Mom and Dad love "The Lock!" They frequent the place often, in fact introduced me to it years ago, before I moved over from the east coast.

Can't wait to meet all of the other 'cool cats' from the forum!
I think you all ROCK!

Made it in town everyone. Got in around 10. So nice to be here again. I will certainly enjoy the next few days and will check for more meet-up possibilities often over the next few days.

You can feel free to tell your boss - "Big House made you do it!" OK
Well, my wife loves your idea and is working to convince me to stay an extra 2 days. Let's try to hook up when you get in. PM me if you have time to hang out. I'm staying by the Sarasota airport but will go toward Venice or something to meet you halfway. Maybe a meal at Sharky's? /It would be excellent to meet you

Yeah! If you can hang an extra too days, lets try to do that! I will be meeting with my partner-to-be who is coming into town too, and it may work-out perfectly for an in-prompt-to meet up. I'll try to set something up in Sarasota though - if I can. Keep your eyes peeled. I was thinking more toward then end of the month, but may try to do it earlier, I'll check around.

That sounds good, I don't think that Saturday works though, but I will check. I think, that everyone is primed for a meet-up sooner rather than later, or maybe sooner and later, or maybe later, or maybe as soon as I can pop the top on this damn beer can!

Sarasota's easiest for me, really. I got down to Venice for a meet once, but didn't see anyone. Weather worked against us that day, I think--pretty windy.

Unfortuantely I am going to be detained up here an extra couple days. We had a passing in the family, and I need to attend the viewings. As it looks now, I'll be heading down on Monday. Take Care everyone.
