Take photos and message them for us Would love to add them to our get together section!

SpecialK

mods - I always say we need to take a photo before the event, then we get so busy TALKING and laughing, we forget, lol! We will try harder this time!

SpecialK

Also, that 2/17 date is good for Lee7 and myself.

AnnAlive

Feb 17 works for me too.

Would love to see you all again and meet everyone who's new. Feb 17 works for me. While I loved Cheesecake Factory last year I thought it was pretty loud and I had a hard time hearing everyone. I don't know the area so I can't recommend anywhere else.

SpecialK

Yay! Feb 17th is looking good so far! Will work on finding a quiet venue.

BucsGirl

Feb 17th is good for me. Yay, I can't wait! 

Snickersmom

Great! Maybe this time we can get to know each other better!!

MexicoHeather

17th will work.

Feb 17 works for me too

I’m going to try to make it the 17th! Our kids have a long weekend for Presidents Day so there is a chance we’ll be on an outing but if not, I’m free.

CC2016

I might actually be in Tampa that weekend anyway! Hope there won’t be a scheduling conflict but this is already exciting

Galsal

That should work well.

SpecialK has anything been decided for the 17th?

SpecialK

Kira - we are definitely getting together - place tbd. I’m sorry I have been distracted, the last two weeks have been a memorial service in South Carolina for my mother-in-law, followed by the interment of both in-laws this past Friday at the National Cemetery at Bushnell and I have had a house full of family. Everyone left this morning so I can now focus on our lunch! I will post the details tomorrow.

Does anyone have any thoughts on a quiet spot that can accommodate this many of us

Snickersmom

Tough time for you and your family. You've had a lot on your plate this month.

It would be great if you could find something a bit north/northeast of Tampa - closer for me! I think I will be driving down by myself so just make it somewhere easy to get to!!!

Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Hey! OK, I'm back! Feeling like I have been trying to hide under the skirt of a whirling dervish for the last few weeks! Is everyone still feeling good with Sat., 2/17 at noon? I am thinking about the Grillsmith at Wiregrass - I know they have capability to put us in a quieter area, and they are located not far off I-75. Thoughts?

MexicoHeather

I'm still in.

Sounds good to me. What time to meet? Do we normally do 11:30 or 12?

BucsGirl

Grillsmith at Wiregrass sounds great. It's a great place to eat, walk, and shop. 

SpecialK

nbnotes - we have met at noon for the past lunches - that also helps the ladies who have a longer drive.

I will keep bumping this so it stays up in the active topics. I will also text everyone that I have a number for to double check with them.

AnnAlive

Still looking forward to the get-together.

SpecialK

Ladies let me know if you are still in - I have updated the header with what I know so far.

kira1234

I'll be hobbling around but plan to be there.

SpecialK

kira - hobbling? why? I need details!

Snickersmom

I'm still in. Don't have a clue where it is but a long as it's off 75, I should be able to find it with good old Google Maps!

Thanks for organizing this. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again.

I'm in but I don't think Phyllis will be coming. I'll check with her again and if she is, she can add herself to the list.

snickers - easy peasy - the shopping center is right off I-75 at the SR-56 exit, only the turn off the ramp, then a short distance. Will add you to the RSVP list! Looking forward to this!

SpecialK I was supposed to have surgery for a knee injury last summer but ended up having breast cancer surgery instead. I walked to far a couple of weeks ago and it's been hurting since.

SpecialK

kira - bummer! Hope you can get it taken care of soon so you're not hurting any longer!
