This Forum Has Scarred Me For Life!
« on: July 11, 2009, 09:55:52 AM »
Friday Noon -

I'm sitting in a meeting at work;

One of the other offices is answering my phones so I don't get disturbed;

Shortly after one the phone vibrates, and I make my way out to answer it since it one of the guys watching my phones;

It is work for me;

Not so happy ending for a couple that just returned from their first cruise;

Call a couple of the kids to get details, and get things organized;

Make sure everyone is on the same page, things are as organized as possible, and mom is ok alone that far from home;

Make contact with those helping us down there;

Everything is going very well and professional until this point ... He's in Ft. Lauderdale ... I can do this and get a real, genuine Hazaritta on the company dime!

You guys have scarred me for life  ;D  How far a drive is it from Mountain Lake to St. Petersburg  ::)
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Ft Lauderdale to St Pete is about 3.5 - 4 hours

He's coming all the way from Minnesota.  I haven't talked to him today, so maybe he's on the road......although he didn't say anything about it when I talked to him on the phone yesterday afternoon.
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!

Should have read 'when you GET to Tifton'. 

There's always an invitation open......and not just to M58, either.  ;)

In all seriousness, if you do use I-75, pretty much everywhere from Tift County south, to the Florida line, is one big speed trap.....but Tifton (exit 59 overpass) is the worst.
