How many folks can we get for a get together at Crab Island in Destin, FL? I was thinking Sat October 4th. Things get crazy for me about mid October through November. Might be my last chance.

Panama City Folks could meet up and run over via the intercoastal waterway. Should be a nice run.

Tell her you are taking her out of town to Destin:-)

LOL...I tried that, apparently she wants me to spend a lot more money than that....she envisions airplanes and luxury hotels. I envision a drive to somewhere that has a days inn. I might see if she wants a new ring instead of a trip, at least it would be something tangable. Not that I don't like vacations, but I travel a ton for work and we have gone on a couple vacations this year. Airports arent any fun for me.

Bonus is that I have a ton of FF miles and plenty of Hilton points, it probably wouldn't be that expensive.
 
@Big Shasta, our 20th anniversary will be spent in Bimini in 2016. I know she would have to patient waiting for next years trip in June. But she will have plenty of time to get ready and excited. It is only a days drive to Fort Lauderdale to launch. So I think a well planed Bimini trip next June is the best plan for your anniversary:cool:

I like the sound of that. BUT, I know she would never count that for our anniversary. However, I did bring it up to her a few days ago and said we need to go. My daughter Graduates in June so it will be dependant on what the dates are. I said it could be a graduation party trip. She was all for it. Now I'll just have to see if the stars align.
 
I saw this crossing the bridge last month and did not know this was Crab Island. Now I want to bring the boat when we go out there in a few weeks.

You should, It's beautiful.
 
I will be on the road that weekend visiti g our Florida dealer network. Can we push it forward a couple of weeks?
 
We are having my sons Birthday Party on the 4th, so I'm out for that day:-/
 
I will be back in town on the 11th so we could possibly make that date if the wife will approve it. Otherwise we may have to pass on this one and plan for the spring.
 
the 11th is out for me....How about the 18th.
 
18th hmmm...well it's the anniversary of my first marriage, and my Uncle's Birthday (but he passed away about 10 years ago).....so yeah, I might be able to do that one:-)
