"HUGH" DU get-together in Key West next week!

[tinfoilinfor2005]

Taking reservations now for the luncheon which at this point appears to be nearly sold out.

OK. So, there are two of us. But I bet we will have a grand old time of it and I guarantee we won't be shoveling snow!!

Just in case, if there are any more DUer's in the Florida Keys, we would love to have you join us. Or any snowbirds in the vicinity, or even anyone from the mainland of Florida...if you can come down for a day...you are welcome! Just pm me for details!

[merh]

1. wish I could make it

I'll take a rain check :)

:hug:

[tinfoilinfor2005]

2. Sorry...no rain allowed in the Keys!

Hiya honey! Wouldn't that be sweet! But you know you're always welcome, and when you do come, we'll build the party around you!

:hug:

5. Me Too! We Have A Friend That Lives There

East side of the island about 5 blocks from the high school. Have fun DU'ers.

[Lowell]

3. I just love the Keys

I was stationed there three times in the Army. We have our reunions there now.
Best sunsets anywhere.

Wish I could make it, but I can't get back down there until March.

4. I'll drink a toast to you!

Good thing there aren't that many people posting...I'd have to take a cab home! :toast:

[cwydro]

7. Yeah,

I'm already wondering if I should take the rest of the day off!:toast:

Btw, your OP cracked me up!:rofl: I can't wait...we just gotta decide what day...

[cwydro]

6. I'll be there

and hey! Schooner Wharf sounds great!

[tinfoilinfor2005]

9. Schooner Wharf it is then!

They have good fresh shrimp too. One day is as good as another for me since I'm off all week, so you pick it! And if no one else from DU shows up, we can gossip about all of 'em! :spray:

[cwydro]

10. Sent you a PM

The Schooner as a choice makes it a definite possibility I won't make it back to work though. Good thing in the Keys that we're all allowed to call in drunk!:hippie:

[JanMichael]

13. let DUers know when it is, so they can watch and listen in on the webcam:

[cwydro]

15. Well, if we went to Atlantic Shores...

..They've got a webcam too...and it's clothing optional there!:bounce: :bounce:

[tinfoilinfor2005]

16. Too funny!

We went there for breakfast a couple of times years ago. But the last time I took my clothes off in public, I was six years old. But it's still fun to ogle! :smoke:

[cwydro]

20. Well, being a Key Wester as long as I have..

I'll go topless...but that is as far as I'll take it. Britney I am NOT. And I would NOT get in front of the webcam anyway:rofl:

[speedoo]

8. I can't make it!

But, I LOVE the keys..

here are some sunsets in Key West..





and Marathon (Boot Key Harbor)...

[cwydro]

12. Oh wow,

Yeah, those are some GREAT pics....at least a couple taken off Mallory Square at Sunset celebration, huh?

[KitchenWitch]

11. A convention of people named Hugh?

:rofl:

[tinfoilinfor2005]

17. Yup! Hugh and Moran...

hahahahahaha!

[SteppingRazor]

14. Suggestion: Try cross-posting this in the Florida forum

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=145

I alas, probably won't be there, but other Floridian DUers might!

[tinfoilinfor2005]

18. Good point!

:)

[BreweryYardRat]

19. Can't drive 8 hours to get there.

Sorry, man.

[cwydro]

22. Well durn,

you must be upstate- central area - what, Orlando? I lived there awhile and worked for the Mouse...maybe another time fellow flordinian:toast: Meantime, we'll have one for you!

[BreweryYardRat]

27. Tampa.

And I lack a car anyway.

Hope y'all have fun.

[Redstone]

21. Any Fantasy Fest stuff going on then?

Redstone

[cwydro]

23. Funny you should ask

last year, because of Hurricane Wilma, we had Fantasy Fest in December. But this year, it went on as usual in October. Hey, you should come down if you like Fantasy Fest...it's a real, um, experience.!

[Redstone]

24. Argh! We need to do that some day. Mrs R wants to be painted.

Redstone

[cwydro]

26. Weeelllll,

they will certainly oblige her in that. I'll never forget my first Fantasy Fest; unfamiliar with body painting, I stared in wonder at this woman with what looked like two sunnyside up fried eggs on her chest...wondering in my NC naivete where she got a bathing suit top like that. My KW friends just fell out laughing....lord, I have seen much more now.:rofl:

[tinfoilinfor2005]

25. That always falls the week of Halloween.

Actually pretty quiet next week. That's why we need to shake things up a bit. :bounce:
