Re: Who's going to Great Woods 6-22-2013!!??
Mike, we've done it both ways. The drive out to Orient Point LI and then taking the ferry from there is a nice way to go. You can see the farmland out on the island and stop at any of the roadside stands. The ferry ride is nice and not that long. This way you side step all the crap, congestion/traf...

Re: Who's going to Great Woods 2013!!??
Would love a June 15 or 22 date. I was planning on a vacation from around June 10 to June 30. That would allow us to not just see Jimmy but maybe also Tim McGraw. I think I gonna put in these dates at the company (if Irene can make them that is) and book flights as soon as we have a date. As you can...

I'm going this year. Looks like I'll be retiring from my state job in a couple of months, so I need to go the cheaper route- no staying at the expensive Casa Marina. Any suggestions on where to stay this year? Livingston Bob If you want to stay near the Casa I'll remommend the El Patio Motel. A fiv...

Re: New Song by JB?
Oh my, thanks for that topic!
I heard that song all the time on RM while driving around in Florida.
Was really wondering what album that was from, since I heard it for the first time this year...
Now that I know, anyone has the album, is it good, worth to buy?

Funny. I was checking on air connections Zurich - Key West about an hour ago... ~1000$. Looks doable to me. [smilie=coolup.gif] Or maybe I'll fly into FLL or MIA, get a cheap car and drive down.
