I'd like to suggest meeting in the Orlando area on Jan 17th or 18th - we've met at the Golden Corral in the past years early afternoon, to take advantage of the senior discount meals and have stayed visiting for hours! (These dates are matched up to two other family get-togethers)

We'll be in St Augustine, but would drive over to meet.

Anyone else who would like to drive to St Augustine instead to meet on other dates?? we'll be there from Jan 8-Feb 4th.

We will be there January 18 for sure.

Either time is OK -- but isn't the strategy to pay the lunch rate at 2PM, & then enjoy the dinner buffet menu which starts not long after that ?

I love the holidays, but I love January in Florida just as much.

Not sure if we can make the drive all the way up to St. Augustine for lunch though.

Drat! We'll be on a cruise at that time, so we'll miss the party! Hopefully we'll catch next year's lunch. Have fun, everyone!

Sad that we can't join you...

We'll be in Orlando from Jan 20 - 28 so will miss the luncheon. It would have been a good opportunity to meet some of you. Ron & Joan, we rented twice from you in the last year (Kona & San Francisco), so it would have been nice to meet in person. Enjoy the afternoon.

My wife and I *might* make it. We live in Deltona FL, which is literally halfway between Orlando and Daytona Beach. Also depends on my work schedule as a truck driver.

Is this Tug get together in Orlando or St. Augustine? If it is in Orlando I may be able to come since I live in the area. Let me know where it will be. I have never been to one and have been a member of TUG since the beginning.
