I’m sorry to say Bob and I will have to miss this year. Lots of tests and doctor appts. Trying to figure out his heart arrhythmia and my back pain/hypoventilation. Plan to SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR. Jackie.

Great! Dates for 2025? Thanks Tom. 😍

I've been wondering how Hontoon Island fared under Hurricane Milton. Jackie

Tom & Joyce—Congratulations on “crossing your wake”! I’m eager to hear about the trip. Any news yet on Hontoon Island? I bet a lot of Florida is still in a state of recovery. Jackie

Kathryn is registered for the same spot as last year--8B. Looking forward to the gathering! Tom & Joyce--THANK YOU! I'd love to hear about your loop adventures. Any news? Jackie & Bob Hall

In January the Hontoon loop was wonderful! We enjoyed it daily. Two runs to Sanford. Lots of manatees and alligators. Currently we are in Maine (10 inches of snow on Friday)! Lovely X-country skiing. Helping with our grandchildren while our son is in your state--he's XC skiing the...

Glad to report on vaccine status. Bob and I are due for booster #2 on April 1 (jab#4). It’s on the calendar! We mask to go inside stores, etc., even when we are the only ones wearing masks. There is one restaurant at home where we occasionally eat inside, but only on off hours and they know...

We’ll be there in slip 8b. At least I hope to make it fir the gathering this timw—they say “3rd time’s charm”. I have a couple of questions: 1. We are down on the St John’s right now for a week. Then we want to leave truck, trailer, and boat in FL until the gathering in March while we fly...

I’m sorry to say that Kathryn will have to cancel this year as well. Site 2b is now available! My 92 year old father in law is having eye issues—macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cornea impairment all rolled into one mess. We are making lots of runs to the eye docs with him. I hope they can...

Colby & Rosanne, YOU DID IT! You went with the 25! Congratulations. :)

We are signed up! Looking forward to it. And yes--we will certainly be following the wash, mask, distance protocols. Maybe Dr Bob can teach outside this time?! See you in March :) Jackie (and Bob)

Hope you are all having a wonderful gathering at Hontoon Island. Bob's hand will NOT require surgery--it should heal with immobilization by brace--so we are leaving today to head south. We will probably launch Saturday morning. Is there a group we could meet up with at that point? I have a...

We've decided to come after all. Why not dash from northern Wisconsin to Florida! What's retirement for, anyway? Looking forward to it. Jackie & Bob Hall aboard Kathryn

This gathering has been high on my "first year of retirement to do" list for years now. However, we cannot come this early in March. My husband and son (and grandsons) have to ski the Birkebeiner in Wisconsin the last weekend of February. Maybe if it's a little later next year???? : )...

Tried to cancel this one.
