Hey Jeff!

Great news!!!!

The Thunderbird is great but they are straight up rooms.

Immediately next door to the Thunderbird on the north side is the Best Western Sea Castle Suites.

They offer suites (duh) and is affiliated with the Thunderbird so give them a call and check it out.

Glad you're coming!

I'll check it out...I have no idea what the hotels are like down there. I have to make sure it's good enough for me, my wife, and daughter.

The Thunderbird is dated but the rooms are clean. Many rooms have a kitchenette. You may want something a little better. The Bilmar might be something you want to look into. It used to be a hotel but they renovated it a few years ago and sold each room to private individual. Those rooms are now rented out through the management company. Members of TISKK were given a tour of the rooms. They are nice, plasma TVs, kitchens, etc. I have no idea what the price is. As mentioned, check out the BW as well. All hotels are right there at the beach.

soooooooo true!

Hi Denny-

How are you doing? Safe to assume you'll be at TI, right? Cool..... see you out there. I can't wait. The wind chill is around zero right now.... brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Hi,

I was thinking about the Jersey crew today. I went for a quick fly and it was in the lower 60 and I was way cold! Thinking about you all meeting up New years day in the snow and cold made me even colder. I went home to the heated house quick. I wouldn't miss TIblue_inlove.gif. The folks at the T-Bird seem to know me now. They give me the same room each year.

Maybe it was that FLAT burger at Sloppy Joe's? smiley-devil.gif

Actually, Melanie liked Sloppy Joe's. I think the FLAT burger was part of the reason she liked it. Maybe Jynx will sit with us this time and re-enact the burger alteration, or was that an altercation.

Alden's infamous Fish House is exactly why he can't pick the restaurant. Go there on Friday night...our plane will get in too late to join you for supper that night.

Sloppy Joes will be giving us a 20% discount on Saturday night for those of us wearing wristbands.

The Fighter Kite Workshop will be early Sunday morning at the Thunderbird. (thinking 8:30 am )

Field set up Friday afternoon.

Steve and I will be out on the beach by 9 am Friday morning.

When will you all be arriving?

Can't wait to see you all!! 10 Days to go!!
