With all of the enthusiastic posts throughout BN about people's plans for the upcoming MOTM in Key West, I thought it might be good therapy for the rest of us to "cry" about not going........

Every year my wife and I talk about going and we never get around to it, like this year......so we're a bit in the dumps knowing that many BNers are getting packed for the trip.

That said, we wish everyone going a safe journey and fun times......those of us left behind will be expecting lots of stories and pictures!

Maybe we should start a phone list so those staying home will be sure to get DD!

waaaaaa........ x3

I would almost kill to make this trip sometime. 2 things going against me. 1) The wife is not into Trop-Rock music. 2) My wife doesn't care much for big crowds.

Someday I will......sadly, I even have the time off work.....

Leave the spouse at home!

Would love to see you in Key West!

I'm always a little envious reading the MOTM threads. But I'm in the same boat as Corona...my better half just isn't into it and with my job situation precarious we are really tightening up on vacation and play dollars.

One of these days I'll make a MOTM ... maybe.

Ditto.

And we will miss you!!! But have a wonderful time in Ireland, kiss the Blarney for me!!!!

I will miss:

my good BN friends (I love you guys)
my favorite musicians (Tall people and nuts and Jims and Howards)
B & O Fishwagon food
All those Parrotheads, my friends
All things Key West

That's why I leave my husband home.

....and that's why I don't have a spouse.....

Nice to have some company as I daydream about the Keys........funny, but I never get tired of that place!

If you've never been there, well, you need to go sometime when you can......

We have friends who have retired to Ramrod Key and joined the KW PHC so they can assist in the festivties of MOTM this year. Like surfpirate posted, my wife and I have always visited in "non-peak" times (like April....and will be going back next April, too).

Hopefully, 2011 may permit a second trip for us during MOTM.......

She doesn't have a problem if I do Buffett concerts without her, and I do football roadtrips as well, but a trip to Key West...........that may be pushing it.
