Newbies - We'll be there Thanksgiving week

Post by weluvthebeach »

Hello all,

You have been such an inspiration and a fountain of information. We'll be down the week of Thanksgiving and would love to meet any forum folks who'll be there too. :D

Cheers,
Beth & Mike

Carol & I are down the 22nd thru the 29th from Boston staying Cruz Bay area. I'll be wearing my "forum" shirt a few of those days. Definitely in for drink or two! Pay attention to the ferry schedules. We come in on a Sunday so we get p/up by Rachel direct to RH.

Thanks for all the replies

Hello all,

I don't want you to think I've been ignoring you, but I couldn't log on at work (our IT-gestapo is very vigilant).

Minde - We already know we're coming back. Planning a trip late April-early May for darlin' daughter's college graduation gift (and ours too). Loved your TR!

Samholtz - We're staying at Gallows Point. Would Monday 11/23 work for you all?

Kevino - We've been watching the ferry schedules closely. Flight gets in at about 1:30 -- 2:00 RH ferry is probably wishful thinking, but 3:00 should be OK. Would love to meet you all.

I ran out of room

Brenda - We'd love to do the Beach Bar, but leave the morning of the 29th.

Toni - I'll be looking for the Forum T-shirts and will shamelessly stop anyone wearing them.

We are counting down the days and have been doing our homework on TA, VINOW and, of course, VIOL (the best). As well as FF&FWD and St John Off the Beaten Path. All of you have been so helpful and fountains of information. Thank you.

WELUVTHEBEACH ~ Carol & I arrive STT Sunday the 22nd at 2:05. We're being p/up by Rachel to RH, no stops (we carry-on bags) no waiting at the baggage claim. We'll make the RH 3:00, you'll never make the 2:00. I'll be the "old guy" in the white Boston hat, green B. Say hello and we'll hook-up for a drink. Staying at Estate Lindholm, next to Asolare. See ya,

Counting down

Post by weluvthebeach »

Hey Kevino - We touch down at 1:39. Hope to see you on the RH 3:00 ferry. (I can't tell you how excited we are!) I'll be looking for the Boston hat.

Bill in VA - I'm a Virginia girl transplanted to FL. Hope to see you on STJ!

You all are so terrific!

Soon come,
Beth & Mike

How about the 25th?

Post by weluvthebeach »

Samholtz,

Will the 25th work? 26th is Thanksgiving and I'm sure you have your own plans. 27th is our last night -- boo hoo! Let me know -- we'd love to meet up with you.

All the best,
Beth & Mike
