Okay all you PA. posters, can we get together some time? I live in the Pottstown/Boyertown/Gibertsville area which is about 50-60 min. from Doylestown and closer to Allentown. Takes me about 45 min to get to Philly proper,too. So anyone up for this?

Island Nana-
My Sweet Amy & I are in.
I believe it'll be 2 years this coming Christmas season since us NJ/Pa forum folks did this. We had a picnic!
Met at Bahama Breeze in King Of Prussia( I think... :roll: ...)
I'll put it out there, too if you don't mind. Great to put the faces behind the always helpful advice.
The Forum is a wonderful family!
Groovy idea, we all could use a get together to talk about vacation!!!-

Jim and Amy- Are you kidding me? Bahama Breeze is one of my favorite places to eat/drink/hang/etc. It's about a half hour from me and would certainly feel right for us STJ lovers. Might be too far for the others...will wait to see if they respond.
Thanks for the "IslandNana" nod :-) I have to get a computer savvy friend to change my name officially on this site. I'm a dinosauer when it comes to these "fancy typewriters" LOL
Have a great Monday...only 4 days till Friday!

P.S. Someday I'll figure out how to get those cute little faces added to my posts.

Baby steps, Nana!!!
We'll string 'em in! (even if it's just a few of us, it'll be wonderful, most assuredly!)

Nancie - I live just above you in Hereford Township. I'll try to make it. Just let me know when and where!

If the gathering is on a Tuesday or Wednesday night, I will most likely be in.

King of Prussia worked out well last time but let's see who is in an if we get folks from Doylestown this time, we may want to consider switching to Plymouth Meeting since it's one stop closer off the turnpike.

Always good to meet fellow forumites :)

Not from Philly, but my traveling companion Chris is and was at the last forum gathering. She's really busy with school, so I will alert her to this thread.

And mostly, I just wanted to jump in because I think the only other person on this forum from Nashville is my friend, so the only time I get to go to gatherings is at The Beach Bar. I'm jealous! :(

Hey all.

We probably can make it again and Bahama Breeze sounds great.

Just let us know when it's going to happen and we'll try our best :lol:

Thanks for the alert!

I'm in as long as it's not a Tuesday night (class night).

LJ, wanna come visit PA? Will pass Philadelphia Premium Outlets on way to King of Prussia? lol

I am a relative rookie on the forum but think my qualifications might allow me a pass to join the gathering:
a) I just returned from a first time trip to St John
b) I grew up in the King Of Prussia Area.

Depending on the date we will be there. We had such a good time the last time we gathered at Bahama Breeze. Their "Painkillers" were a disappointment but the company was excellent.

Way to go, PA crowd! My advice is to pick a place and a date and DO IT! You might need a second meeting to get everyone covered. DFW just had our 3rd party and all of them have been great. Now if the D.C. area foks would get their group organized.
(Are You hearing me, Rick?) :lol:

Don't worry. The main qualification is a love of the islands. No other qualifications! But it does help to be slightly off. As the saying goes "We're all here because we're not all there!"
