SoFla Meet - November 19, 2011

[tyrion]

Jp and I have decided to host a meet down here. I've posted it at HF as well. We are looking to have a meet, with gear on Saturday. The rest of the time, is up to those who attend. Depending on the turnout, I may try to get a room at the Embassy Suites where CJ '08 took place. Otherwise, the usual place in Plantation we have the meets in the past.

Would love to come but I will be in NYC or Connecticut that weekend.

[morphsci]

Bah! We have visitors arriving that weekend for the Thanksgiving holiday. I wonder if I could sneak away?

This is why we need hologram machines

[jvlgato]

Damn, I swore to myself that I'd join the travel team for the next Florida meet. But the holidays are just a tough time personally and professionally. Plus I'm just a wuss.

[CarlSeibert]

Very cool.

[guzziguy]

I'd love to come, but I doubt finances will allow it. Have a great time!

[Augsburger]

Have fun guys, I will be toasting all your attendees................................and anyone not attending, as well as anyone flying or attending a football game or watching the game for that matter.

This. Between speeding tickets and the recent trip to NYC, I've got no free cash.

I'll be there in spirit.

[Absorbine_Sr]

Maybe by G+, but not in the flesh this time. Have a good time kids!

Ocala is about a 4 hour drive. If you go on the front end, fly into Orlando Airport and drive an hour North to Ocala and them 4 hours South to Fort Lauderdale. If you do it on the back end, then fly to Fort Lauderdale, drive to 4 hours to Ocala and then 1 hour back to Orlando Airport. You can also fly between Orlando and Fort Lauderdale on Southwest. I've done the drive many times, it's not a big deal.

[Tyll Hertsens]

Won't be there, but love y'all. Hoist one for me!

[The Monkey]

Maybe this will be my birthday present to myself. Not sure yet, but subscribed.

[raffy]

Count me in

[mikeymad]

sad to say - no from me - sounds like a blast though....

[Dreadhead]

No from me with the new arrival next month but you guys have a great time!

[VPI]

I definitely do not want to miss a FLA meet but I am a very slight maybe at this point.

[Aura]

Won't be able to make this one unfortunately, I start work the following Monday (the 21st).

Have a great time folks! x2 with Pak on the hologram machine.

[screaming oranges]

I have tentative plans for a trip ending on that weekend, so I am unsure if I will be able to make it. I haven't booked my flight for that other trip since I haven't coordinated with my family on when exactly we will be doing this.

[mrarroyo]

Yes sir, count me in.

[The Monkey]

Looks like the timing plus my RMAF attendance means I can't make it.

[Voltron]

Although Mike and JP seem to be asleep at the wheel, they have both told me that this meet ain't gonna happen. Tough timing around the holidays, etc. You made the right choice to go for RMAF, if I do say.

[jp11801]

yes this meet is cancelled and we are moving to a small format meet at my place Nov 1st. I've not publicized it was I went invite via pm due to space limits.

[mrarroyo]

Well, there is always 2012!
