I'm headed back to Tampa for the show this year. However, Comcast decided to take a break this morning and I missed my window to get lawn seats. If anybody hears of two floating around, DM me.

T, I'm thinking the beach on Thursday, perhaps that place over by St. Pete Beach that Mommar and your crew showed up at 2 years ago. I can't recall the name of the place right now. They have beach chairs and umbrellas we can use.

That's the beach I mentioned to you when we were talking about Sunday. That was nice, there was food and drink and a beach - I'd be up for that on Thursday, though I'd have to find a ROOM! Maybe LQ has Thurs night available.MacPhin wrote:TommyBahama wrote:i need to figure where to fly in and out of and where to stay Thursday night and Friday night...booked at LQ for Sat....i am thinking flying into Tampa...would like to beach it on Friday....and maybe out of Orlando on Sunday night..thinking M-ville for lunch!!!

I know it was Treasure Island but I don't remember a hotel, it was just a beach bar kind of place but I can't remember what it was called.

Re: Who's Going to Tampa 04-16-2011
Since it's spring break for me, I want to spend a few days in the area. I'm going solo- are there any cheap beach areas (maybe quieter, less well known than say, St Pete)? I have wheels, so I can go up or down the coast a little ways- don't want to spend all my time on the road. Any suggestions appreciated!
