That's the one near the airport right? I don't know if I can come or not during the work week. I've already taken off so much time...I hate to ask for it. I would so love to come though.

shells43

You gals have a great time, I will be with you in spirit! Too much to do with a shortened work week. Poo.

BarbaraA

We will post pics, Shelley!

BarbaraA

Here's another view.

This one outside, after our delicious brunch. Plenty of sunshine and all of us still talking a million miles an hour!! LOL.

From left: BarbaraA, Choca, Silka, moi/Faithie and TerryCarolyn.

Choca, Silka and TC are all three avid BCO chat-line friends. This is the first that I'd ever met Silka -- she lives just outside Indianapolis, but is visiting Choca for a few weeks of FL sunshine. Anyhow, they said that they still chat nearly every evening starting usually after 9:00 p.m. -- here at BCO's chatline.

The Tampa group is VERY organized & they get together all the time. Choca keeps them organized and she's more than happy to add anyone's name to the email trail.

Hi, I just saw this thread. I'm in Lakeland - between Tampa and Orlando. Nice to know there are ladies in the area going through all the same BC crap!

BarbaraA

Here in Treasure Island.

Hey Joan Davies, I'm in Winter Haven, your name sounds very familiar to me for some reason.

Shelley

JoanDavies

Hi, Shelley -- I work for Polk County Government Television (PGTV), so I get around a little bit in the area...

shells43

Well maybe that is it then. I love watching all the school coverage on PGTV and the ISO performances (wink wink).

JoanDavies

Shelley -- LOL, good to know we have a few viewers out there! Teresa Martinez, who hosts "Comunidad Viva" actually worked on a documentary of sorts about a breast cancer patient. We've been running it on the channel. It follows her during the treatment process.

Hi Florida girls. I am in NE Florida, Flagler Beach. Kind of more like south Georgia compared to all the beautiful sub-tropical places where you guys live. But it is a littler quieter here, if you like that  I'm not much for "get-togethers" but love to keep up with everyone and enjoy their visits vicariously. 

Hope all the state is getting some of the good rain we are finally having here. Everything green was just about dead but it is amazing how a few good rains can bring it all back. Except the grass... our area is lucky to have green weeds as the grass is mostly dead. I don't know if it is some kind of bug or disease or what but combined with the drought we've had many lawns have simply given up the ghost!

Love living in Florida  

BarbaraA

Hi PJ, yes, we had a monsoon yesterday, about 4-5 inches of rain, The sun is peeking out today. All the standing water is ripe breeding ground for mosquitos. We don't usually have them at the beach, except after a deluge. Next time I am over your way, I will PM you.

kira1234

Barbara, I would love to meet for lunch one day.

kira1234

punkinfish, In Port Charlotte too!
