Florida Gathering in October, Another Ditch Run?

[Tidbart]

All,


We are doing this trip, one way or another. :biggrin.:

I have blocked off some rooms (5) at Roland Martin's for October 18-20th. More available, if needed.
Rooms are $78 or $88 plus 8/nt for the slip for the small boats, I forgot what sizes. I think up to 25'? A little more for a larger one. Call 1-800-473-6766, tell them you want one of the blocked rooms, Donzi Group, Bob Wilson.

Book a room now. It costs nothing to reserve your room. They are filling up fast. There is some reunion booked there this weekend, but they are not boaters, so there is plenty of dock space.

You have the option of room types, regular or efficiency.

There is a band playing that weekend at the Tiki Bar. :lobster:izza:


You also have other options of coming on Friday, with me and others or you can do 1 night and come on Saturday. (hint, Nick). :yes:

I have some names of people who plan on attending:

John, Smokediver
Mark, Naplesdonzi
Me, Tidbart
Budmann and Denese
OneSubDrvr, Wayne
VetteLt and his brother Eddie

Buiz, Jim ...?????
BiggieFL, Nick,....????

Any others>?????

Will have more details later. Bob

Janice and I had lunch and drinks here last Saturday...

pretty darn good food, and the MonkeyRita will kick your a$$, you get to keep the coconut shell too..

a group of really cool airboats stopped in for lunch, one had an LS engine with aluminum radiator and reduction gerabox and variable pitch prop, ran over 100 he said and I do NOT doubt it... another had a 454 with EFI... these frog hunters have some neat ****

checked out the rim canal, levee, and both boat ramps, and all the docks...

we've decided not to do this trip, so enjoy the egrets, alligators, frogs, lilly pads, catfish, airboats galore... and fresh water !!

[Tidbart]

I have been away all week and have been pretty busy, so I have not been updating the thread. My apologies.

Weather looking great and lunch run I planned for Saturday. Can't wait.

Late-comers are still welcome. B

Denese and I have decided that we will fix everyone breakfast both Sat. and Sun morning! If we could get a tentive head count then we can stock the eff. and be prepared for a GREAT weekend!
