[villages07]

Wow!!! What a turnout and a great bunch of folks. There were new faces, faces to put with online personalities, and regulars. It was a beautiful day on the patio at Crispers as somewhere close to 40 TOTV’ers and their friends and families gathered for our monthly luncheon.

We finally got to meet F16 and his lovely wife and their hosts/friends and had a chance to congratulate the 16's on their purchase of a new home in Hadley. Other first timers to a TOTV event included Handieman and Mrs Handie, ReliancePeech, Jerseygirl, PunkPup, Gemorc, FallChicks2, BillMc, Mick, Jim and Linda (ByeNJ).

We said farewell to our Canadian friends, Barefoot and Fireboy and Mom2Five. We look forward to their return in the fall.

Shy Kathy brought a cake to help DickY celebrate his retirement and final arrival in TV. Other participants included SWRinFLA, Chelsea, VillageKid, SamHass, Beady, Taltarzac (king of the forum posters), Pete and Paula, Eddie/EJP, Wiwi, Redwitch, Sailor17 and Mrs Sailor (their lips are finally unlocked), RokinRonda, Villages07.

Each month brings a new mix of attendees…we look forward to new arrivals in May. For our friends who have already departed or will be departing soon, we’ll save your seats for a future Crispers luncheon. Y’all come back soon!!! Special Hellos go out to Hyacinth and Sidney, Donna, Mr and Mrs Brightspot, Susan and Tom, JohnnyM and Barb and everyone else out there wishing you were here….
