Frugalist (from Sebring) and I (from Orlando) were thinking about having a mini gathering somewhere in Florida. The purpose of this post is to determine the extent of the interest in such an event.
Frugalist suggested that we meet at one of the Giordano's Restaurants in the Orlando area. Neither are located anywhere the Amtrak station, however. To do a day trip by train may be difficult depending on your location in Florida. If coming from North or Central Florida, one can do a round trip (to Kissimmee, Lakeland, Tampa) by taking the morning southbound Star and returning by taking the evening northbound Star.
We were also thinking that since the temperatures are already consistently in the 90's in Central Florida, that Fall/Winter would be a better time of year.
If you are, or might be, interested in attending a Florida mini gathering, please post a response with your preference for location and time of year.
Thanks,
Penny
