If our tee time are early, I will be at Crispers, if not I will find someone who is going and give them the box with the nametags.

Overbooked Gracie.

Everyone is invited to Crispers to meet other TOTVrs. You meet in the outside area at three and someone will give you a nametag and if you want you sign your real name on the sign up sheet and you try to form a circle and everyone goes around and introduces themselves.

I haven't met anyone there ever that wasn't just a great person.

OH...and it is always the third Friday at three. Crispers is next to Publix and kind of across from the High School on 466.

Gracie, if you don't have anyone yet to do the name tags, I'll do it. Call me (I think you have my phone number) and we can coordinate. I could pick them up or you could drop them off -- which ever works out. Anyone out there in TOTV land planning to come?

Travel Expo is from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. Crispers is at 3:00 pm. Should be no problem. Go earlier to the Expo and then head over to Crispers.

I MAY be late tomorrow, don't think so, but am cutting it close getting back from golf. Please write your TOTV name on the back of a piece of paper and pin it to your shirt in case I am late with the nametags. I should get them to Another Linda who volunteered, we are looking at a home for sale for Gene and Kathy(gigene) this morning. I will try to get the nametags to Another Linda sometime TODAY in case I am late.

Overbooked Gracie

J Heydt will never trust me with them again!!!

It will be so and wonderful to SEE her for the first time.

I rarely see Barefoot. (Bare we need to remedy that) but she warms my heart everytime she posts on here.

I know that many of you know just how I feel.

I'm excited about meeting you too, and others! Bare? ??? Can you haul yourself up there? I'll be the one in the snowsuit.

Those present were Another Linda,Tom Hannon, Skyguy and wife Eileen, Villages Dude, Swrinfla, Syr Nancy, NJBchbum, CFrance and husband whose name I failed to hear, RItaly, Jimbo and his beautiful wife whose name I didn't want to admit I didn't hear, Niels and Claudia, Virtual Geezer, J Blum, CQuick and husband Chuck and son Patrick, and two new Gilchristers whose names I didn't capture, who were very new to this beautiful place and appropriately happy....but not a tad more so than all the other veteran Villagers.

Helene and I had such a lovely time with warm and gracious and funny people. We always do with folks from TOTV.

The greatest part of this place are it's people.

I did the same thing. Aside from a quick hello to Jimbo and Sky Guy, and an early chat with Gracie, I found myself sitting at a table with JBlum and Helene. I should have circulated more. I just discovered, Neils was there. Should have made my rounds. Shame on me.
