OK, I gotta question.....you know you're making a trek to the end of A1A in 2012.....you know MoTM is in Nov..........why not make that one trip when EVERYONE ELSE IS GOING????

November is a tough time for me to get away from work.....another reason to retire!
On most days I say: "Wrinkles only go where the smiles have been...."
Sometimes I can only say: "There is no dumbass vaccine......"
If something or someone gets you down, just remember: "In a hundred years it all won’t matter.........."
me! We've never been. And with my little retirement job fall vacations are pretty much out. From the beginning of October on, we are frantically getting stuff ready to go into the shop for Christmas.
Would love to go but I am not. Mr. Rickie is not into the Buffett thing (at all) and I am looking at being laid off in the very near future. Those two facts mean we allocate our vacation dollars pretty carefully.
However, I do enjoy reading the MOTM thread, seeing everyone's pix, etc. Living vicariously through all the lucky ones...
You only have two options - havin' fun or freakin' out...
As much as I would love to say that I'll be there, I most likely won't. I have another trip to Ireland planned for next year and will be spending some extra time there this time around, using more of my vacation time for that.

Never been either. Maybe we should get together every November on some little MI island...Mackinac Island maybe?
Wait a minute....Mackinac Island in November? We might have to move up our date about three months.
I don't know if I'm going. I heard the Russian space program was going to start offering commercial flights to the moon and you already know Jimmy is on board to be the first artist to play it. I think I'm going to start saving for that.
I knew this girl made of memories and phrases, who lived her whole life in both chapters and stages.
Danced 'til the dawn, wished all her worries away.
She's a long way from a West Nashville grand ballroom gown.

I'm In!!
Actually, I'm surprised there isn't a BN movement (somehow that doesn't sound quite right) to meet up at Cheeseburger in Caseville in August. It sounds like a mini-MoTM to me. Plenty of Trop-Rock & a pretty liberal alcoholic beverage policy around town. PLENTY of beach! Other goofy activities abound. Only downside is not much for accomodations. I think you have reserve verrrry early for campground.
Corona by day, Corona by night, any old time is just alright!

For well over a decade from the late 80s to the turn of this century
I went down to Key West for two sometimes three week stretches specifically when
it wasn't crowded. I loved the feeling of being a local and the lack of crowds.
I quit going about the time KW became a regular stop for Miami to Mexico cruise ships.
Of course at the time I did not know any of you fine people .....
