Floridians! (Sorry Guys, it's not gonna happen)
My family is going to be in FL over Easter wknd, leaving Thursday and flying home Monday. I definitely want to meet up with some of you guys during that time. Would some of y'all be up for lunch near Don's place Saturday or something? I'll have to talk with my parents and get an approximate itinerary, but I want to do something and meet a bunch of you guys. LMK what works best, maybe I can split off for an afternoon. I've been to all the parks, so that's not terribly appealing anymore, lol, so that would be a good time to do it.

Re: Floridians!
I assume you are hitting the east coast of FL, too bad you aren't hitting up the gulf coast I'd love too meet up. I would go over there to dons side of the state but my work doesn't really allow it

Re: Floridians!
I'll be in the Tampa area, not any further north, IIRC. Probably Thurs and part of Friday, as my Aunt lives down there in Tampa, IIRC. Then head up to Orlando area for the rest of the wknd.

Re: Floridians!
well have fun, tampa is about an hour south on the veterans expressway from me, I'm actually going to test drive a g6 gt with the 3.9 6spd in new port richey which is about halfway in between.

Ahhh, I read this too quick and thought you said this weekend...hahaa, yeah, that's pretty far off. I'm down. I go over to Don's often enough to not have that be a problem.

I`m right outside of Orlando. I`d like to hang with some car guys especially if I know I`m going to learn something about these these cars. I`m new the Bonneville thing.

Pun 44 is a winner everytime, as long as lash isn't leading the convoy. Lou, you can carpool with me... If you are brave enough.

That's a relief. The closer it got the more frightened I had become. I was planning on heading out to Texas to avoid you...
