These last three years have been a whirlwind of a ride. It's time to set sail for another "Lovely Cruise" in
my life. I will be stepping down as Director of Conventions.

You all have made these three years a wonderful memory and I so hope I've done the same for you.
I will also never forget the friendships old and new by having this job. Thank you for all the support
over the last three years as Director of Conventions. Most important is all the support for Meeting of the Minds.
Remember without your support there would not be a Meeting of the Minds.

To all the Committee Chairs and volunteers who have helped put on Meeting of the Minds over these last 3 years
you all are "awesome". You are the ones that make MOTM run so smooth. Thank you!!!!!!

To the Parrot Heads in Paradise, Inc Board of Directors. Thank you for your confidence, support during this
time and giving me the chance to bring back the PHun & excitement to Meeting of the Minds.

This ole southern girl went to Key West and opened a lot of new doors in the community. All I ask is that you
keep supporting the ones that support Meeting of the Minds so the party will never end and continue like it
has over the last twenty years.

Now before I set sail its time to pass the torch to Andrew Talbert. Andrew will do a fine awesome job as
Director of Conventions. Please support Andrew as you all have supported me over the last three years.
Good Luck my friend!

It's been a lovely cruise and I'll see you when the sun sets in the Keys!

Still almost 8 months away, so I'll have lots of time to practice partying.

Sent mine in yesterday, too.

I'm flying in to key west again. Cab from airport to Casa is about $7+ tip. The airport is just around the corner from the Casa.

The down side about coming from the main land down is potential weather. Which of course is the same with flying in. But I take the earliest flight in. If we were bumped back there is no horrible wait.

Driving, shuttle or ferry down could be relaxing as well as enjoyable; from sights and sounds. Of course the cool breeze on your face.

Just look at the time. Coming from main land down there are potential delays. Not like the roads at home that you can detour around. One way in and out driving.

But I have an equal split of friends that love the drive/shuttle down. Others like the flight in.

Dragging mom this year. She was with us at brunch at Belliago two years ago. I told her she needs a relaxing vacation. So no one tell her we 'go go go' at night.

I'm LMAO that you told your Mother that MOTM was a relaxing vacation!

My lips are sealed . . . . . she'll find out on her own, what MOTM is all about, just like the rest of us!!!

Not for us! We'll enjoy the relative calm after the mayhem of last year. Back to bidness as usual.
