Fla. bound - Gulf Coast - anyone for a meetup?? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

yorkiesmiles · 03-09-2009, 06:55 AM

Hi, I'm going to Sarasota in 2 weeks! I arrive on March 23 and depart on April 2. I would love to see about meeting up with some Florida YTers & their pups sometime between March 24-April 1.

Anyone interested??? I have already talked with mechchic3 - she needs to do something during the week of the 24th on a weekday due to her work schedule - she lives in the Tampa area.

But I'm up for more than one get together too

- if we need to plan a weekend get together! I will try to travel - got ask mom & dad for the car though

Well that is too bad! I know Florida is so big - and so many Yters spread out across the state. Just hoping someone is interested that is on the Gulf Coast

We are in Tampa which isnt too far from there. We would be interested.

I'm not in FL but south GA. About an hour from Tallahassee and 5 hours from Destin.. Not sure where Sarasota is compared to those places...

But I'd be interested in a meetup/playdate if your close enough

you are probably about a days drive, maybe 450/500miles from Sarasota... Tampa maybe 400.. Good luck finding a meetup. I'm from Tampa and Chattanooga, but we will be in CHATT at that time.... maybe next time.....

Yeah!! Would you be available during the week? Pris (mechchic3) wants to meet on Wed. or Thurs?

Who else comes to your meetups? I know CollegeCutie - lives near Tampa, never heard if she got a job & would love to meet Maya's Mom to - I think she may be there north - or maybe closer to St. Pete

I guess I better say something to my parents too - before they start making plans for me

(and the car

)

That would be great - Sarasota, though is about an hour south of Tampa - not sure how far you are from Tampa

Oh, that is too bad! I go to Nashville fairly frequently - usually from there I drive thru Chattanooga on the way to my brother's

That would be great if everyone wanted to come to Sarasota to meetup. I'm sure there must be a dog park in the area (I'm sure my parents would welcome all of us - but my only hesitation is there yard isn't fixed. But we could be out on the lanai next to the pool in the cage

) Or we could meet south of Sarasota in Venice at the doggy beach, there is also a small dog park there that I usually just walk thru to get to the beach & then shower off the dogs in the park before we leave.

yorkiesmiles · 03-22-2009, 06:39 PM

carsou · 03-22-2009, 06:42 PM

I had meant to call Pris today & confirm the day with her. She needs to do it Wed or Thurs this week. Would one of those days work for you? I'm going to be offline soon - and probably won't be back online until I get to my parents late tomorrow afternoon. I will try to call Pris in the morning - while i'm twiddling my thumbs for 2 hrs at the airport. Do you have any ideas on where to meet? Pris said I could come to her house. My mom suggested the outlet mall between Tampa & Sarsota - she said she see people there all the time with their dogs
