I counted around 30, but I arrived late. It was a super chance to say hi to old friends and meet some new friends!

Yep, a great time... a nice mix of old timers and newbies. Thanks to Nancy for taking the bull by the horns and providing the organization. Just a little bit of promotion and organization is all we needed to get the luncheons back on track.

EdV took the pix...so, I'll be the first one to pester him. When are you gonna post the pix, Ed?????

Looking forward to March with Wendy's touch!!!

Thumbs up

Another from another Linda. Our gathering was a small example of what makes this place great. I'm just sorry I didn't have a chance to talk to everyone. But there is always next month.

Sorry I couldn't make it. My sister was visiting from NY and although we were going to try to make a cameo appearance, my wife's golf cart ran out of electric earlier in the afternoon and we needed to address the problem.

I just resized and forwarded the picks to Nancy. She mentioned that she had the instructions from Admin for uploading them but it will be her first time doing this, so be patient. It was a well organized and fun filled gathering indeed.

But I must apologize for the picture quality. After a few flash photos, the camera began acting up and some shots were lost because no flash fired or in some other cases the focus was off. Time to put this camera out to pasture and head to Best Buy for a shiny new one.

Nice to meet new people and refresh memories with some of the oldies. Looking forward to many more Crispers gatherings. Thanks for rejuvenating the group.

One of the biggest crowds in many months. Great fun.

It was especially nice to see our very favorite graciegirl!

And, I almost - not very much, but almost - regret that I'll miss the March festivities! I'll be aboard the Emerald Princess, on her way back to Port Everglades after a ten-day cruise to the Eastern/Southern Caribbean.

Y'all y'all have fun!

P.S.: You know, I hope, that y'all y'all is plural!

It was so wonderful to see the Crispers gathering be back to the way it used to be. Great job, Nancy! The rotating hosts will help a lot. It does create a burnout being the one responsible month after month.

What a truly great group of people we have here on TOTV and it was a joy to meet some of the "newbies".
