I'm ready!

Hello. Anthony, Kaiya and I are all ready to roll. Tara will not be coming this year- fortunately the daycare is booming and it wold be just too much to shut it down for the weekend. As far as the t-shirts- I have since changed jobs and am now working at a marina soo I won't be able to bring them :( Long story- I can fill every in about my crazy boss when I get there.

I did have a couple questions for everyone. When is everyone planning on arriving? I am planning to work a half day Thursday and then leave about 1pm. This should put us in Tybee about 9pm-10pm... probably stay until Sunday 10am...ish

Do we have a shedule ie. any days planned out or are we winging it? Let me know!

I'm thinking Tybee!

We are really looking forward to seeing everyone. (Well, except Andy, who may be too busy waiting on Laura, but I will certainly drink a beer to him!) :-)

BTW, I contacted the guy that runs the Tybee Shuttle and asked about renting his services in case we wanted to go somewhere en masse without a zillion cars. Sounds like a great guy. Say frinstance if we wanted to hire him for a 3-4 hr period to run us into Savannah, to the cemetary, then on a self-guided tour, maybe to Price Street, Aunt Nelly and Mamie's, Papa's office by Tomacheechee's rock, etc, etc and back to Tybee. Of course, should the guys wish to powder their noses, we can ask him to stop at a MacDonald's or such.

He said it's $100 hr but for 4 hrs he'd charge us for 3 hrs. I though this might be an easy and efficient way to visit as we ride. He said he can take 22-23 folks, if there are some kids. He is already booked in the evenings, and for Saturday afternoon, but Friday and Saturday morning, say 9am-1pm, are open now.

He is the web publisher for most of the Tybee sites and knows a lot about what's going on, too. I also asked him if the Hot Rod show that weekend would be a huge deal for traffic and parking, restaurants, etc. and he said it would not, nothing like the Pirate's thing the weekend before we are there, or Tybee Birthday, the weekend after.

I posted a lot of this as a "comment" but decided to stick it here too.
(Hey Rupert! I'll bring some fishing stuff too!)

T Minus 24 Days to Tybee

It's just 24 days to our Tybee Excursion and I hope everyone is gearing up. I sent out an email to everyone today and hope you'll post your suggestions for Tybee fun here. Looking forward to seeing everyone and being waited on hand and foot - oh, I mean, did I say that out loud?


But really, two creams, two sugars in that coffee with the chocolate glazed chocolate cake doughnut if you please. Extra parm on the cheese pizza and a sparkling fresh genuine Coke will do. Oh, and can I have another pillow?
