Wendy's Ginnie Springs Encampment and Dive Party

[Wendy]

scuba_jenny once bubbled...
sounds like fun! don't kow if I can make it or not yet. How far is it from ft lauderdale?
any bubble watchers going that can watch little bubbles also?

Ginnie is about 1.5 hours from Orlando if that helps. Its off of I-75, just north of Gainesville, you would take the Alachua high Springs exit and and Ginnie is just on the other side of High Springs.

Hey Miss.Wendy maybe at your leasure you might be able to work up a price total excluding gas and food. just the dives and camping for the board so some people are not counting fingers lol. in your spare time of course. Thanks a bunch for all your hard work. lol anyways i am looking forward to this trip as well. Am looking forward to a couple drinks sitting around dinner again relaxing and talking to everyone. Hey wilbill that meg tooth is not the pic of me sitting in the back of my truck when i first got their. wonder where it came from???

I'm crossing my fingers. I can't think of a reason why not at this point. If all else fails, it'd be worth giving up some of my blackmail material back to my brother for a weekend's babysitting. :whist:

Ok so far this are the folks that are coming, but I don't know how many nights they plan on camping, if they are cmaping, etc. Remember, just cuz you post here that you are coming doesn't mean you have a reservation to camp. Everyone needs to call Ginnie Springs directly to book a camp site. And if camping isn;t for you, there are a couple of hotels in High Springs down the road.

I saw that also 8buck. Wendy did you notice the pic that peter posted of 8buck sitting on his truck at Venice? It's missing the Meg. For those thinking??????? right now, Wendy, 8buck and myself went back to the scene of the crime on Sunday and someone had put a HUGE (plaster cast) Meg Tooth on one of the red diamond signs at the entrance to the beach. We all knew that it could not have been there on Sat. when we were there.

We were going to take a photo of it but it started raining (imagine that) pretty hard when we went to leave.

Wildbill:cop:

I noticed it was in that pic of 8buck. Weird...maybe the meg tooth fairy put it there.

I have 1-3 friends who might come just to snorkel (they're not divers yet). We were roughly planning on taking a few days vacation to Orlando sometime in September so this would work out perfectly. Hope to visit Universal, Disney, and springs diving.
