Matthew, we have kindred minds! I've been sooo busy the past week but
determined to start RPCA Get Together 2009 when I came back and I'm
back!
It is going to be a large task just to gather information from all of
us regarding ideas of where we want to go, what we want to do, what
we want to see, what budget parameters we have, do we want day trips,
a cruise, some day trips and then a cruise? We need to set deadlines
and get payments in advance unfortunatly because we won't get the
rooms we need together if we don't. Set up a savings account now and
put 3 or 4 or 5 percent of a paycheck away when you can for a deposit so
the rest
won't be so difficult.

I'll work with Marva, the travel agent, and with Helen Miles who is
the coordinator and get organized so we will do this as smoothly as
possible. If there are any RPCA'ers with travel talent and knowledge
please just jump right in! You will be welcomed with very wide open
arms!

If it's in Orlando, it's possibly do-able for us as long as we have the gas
money because we can do that in a day, no problem. We had a wonderful time
at your house, Charleen, and you're not far from Orlando at all. I think it
was about an hour and 20 minute ride.

Allan just started working again for the first time in, like, 7 months, but
we have no idea how long this is going to continue, so we're broke. No
cruises for us (I don't think I could manage one, anyway). If we can,
though, we'd like to attempt to hook up with the group if it's not far.

Whenever plans are solidified, please keep us all posted.
