Are you packed and ready to roll in the morning?
Meet and Greet:
Monday, February 27, 4:00 pm
Location: Cedar Landing Shelter
Bring a snack and a drink (optional)
Pick up a pink ribbon - tie it to your RV so we can recognize our group.
Pick up a green ribbon for the RV Tour of your rig to let us know if your rig is open to tour (optional).
Donna Reinhart and I hope to be able to get the shelter for our group. It's on a first-come first-served basis. If we can't get the shelter we will have it at our site (either 40 or 44).

We'll be there by the 4:00 meeting. Presently in Orlando, doing laundry & loafing. Of course I had to come down with a cold since we left home last Sunday. First cold in at least 2 years. Oh well, got some pills, will get through it. Looking forward to seeing & meeting friends tomorrow.

I am so sorry that I missed the opportunity to meet some of you. I am not that far away now -near Savannah- but there is no room at the inn.
I will have to be more vigiliant with that GTG category. Next time.. Have fun!

Wanderer2 - Sorry you missed the GTG. FL State Parks keep some sites available for walk-ins. Carol was able to get one on Monday for the week.

I'm going to stop by the pot luck tonight just to say good-bye to everyone because I will be leaving tomorrow morning. I have a long drive to make so might not be able to see everyone in the morning. Anyway, it has been a great couple of days!

I realized the pot luck would be after dusk, so I rode around on my bike and said good-bye to as many ladies as I could find. If I missed you, it was nice to see the people I had met before and all the new people I had just met online. Hope to see you at the next GTG!
