Update on a possible cruise. In short, it doesn't look like the numbers/dates/locations are working out.
I'm thinking if I get enough "Oh, darns" that we could try again in a year or two out of a port like New Orleans or Miami. Make it worth our effort and wouldn't have to tie it to the dates of our reunion.
If anyone else would like to be involved, let me know.
Does it look like we are getting lazy in our old age. The answer is yes. We are trying to organize it so you can choose what to attend and what fits your budget. By doing virtually the same thing each year, we also can put it on with just the two or three of us that do most of the advance work and then the addition of those that can help the day of the event or shortly before. This way, even out of towners can pitch in.
