Well, Bert, you will have to be sure to get lots of pictures - you have a new digital camera, don't you? I wish I was close enough to join that trip. It sounds like quite a nice weekend at a very reasonable cost. You all have fun and be sure to file the required trip report!

It just dropped to 30%, someone else who's vacation days effect my vacation days, already has that Friday before off... I will need to see if he can move his vacation forward a day so he will be back on that Friday... It will be 100% that we will be there, if that happens..

This looks like a neat trip. I trying to figure how to get there by 10am without staying over the previous night. A 7am ferry off LI really makes it a close call.

Ron - I couldn't have said it better! Peg & I are leaving first thing in the morning for Myrtle Beach and then to the Outer Banks to visit Cape Hatteras, Bodie Island and Currituck Beach Lights! I'm also looking forward to seeing everyone at the ALF Event! My best, Paul Conlin ALF Secretary
