Replying to Florida Mini Gathering

Welcome back Frugalist. I agree that after November is a better time of year (although today in Orlando we had "Chamber of Commerce" weather - virtually no humidity and barely 80 degrees. I did a points run from WPK to ORL and back and stayed outside during my ORL layover and it was beautiful outside.

Thank you pennyk. I waved to you as we went through Orlando Monday. I knew you were out there somewhere.

Yes, today's weather is rather exceptional for mid-May. If only it could last all summer.

Frugalist: You mean that half of them were working? That'd be an improvement.

Then we should have counted our blessings.

I'm back from a crazy long weekend to Washington DC that culminated in a last-minute AGR booking on the Silver Meteor back to Florida (I made the mistake of flying up there -- what was I thinking?!). TSA Three-Ring-Circus. Crappy weather. Metro track work causing system-wide delays all weekend. Seemed like half the Metro escalators didn't work, etc., etc.

Just about any location from Tampa-Orlando-Daytona, south would work for me. As suggested by many, fall/winter would be preferred. Ideally sometime in the November-to-March timeframe.

I really don't know what to suggest for activities, so I'll go with whatever the group suggests.

Not much more to add at this point. Keep me in the loop.

Though I'm form VA...I might potentially be interested in an East Coast gathering of this sort. I'll likely have points to burn on sleepers down and back, and I've got friends I can visit with and combine this on.

Sounds fun! Count me in.

I'm out of the loop on this "Wrong Turn" thing!?! Can't wait to witness it for myself!!!

We are being very childish about making fun of directional dysfunction. I agree that I am guilty about beating a dead horse of a joke, but it is all in fun. Dick, Kevin, Jis and I can agree and laugh about this topic (where, on the other hand, we are not all on the same page politically and we would not be laughing at the same time ).

I'm out of the loop on this "Wrong Turn" thing!?!

Not to worry, it's merely a dead horse being flogged by folks unable or unwilling to realize that a joke long ago ceased to be funny.
