Tampa/St. Pete/Clearwater Dopefest - Anyone?

Bambi speaks wisely.
Although I wonder about the 85 degrees comment. If it was 85 degrees you must have been posting very, very early in the morning, very late at night or with your refrigerator door open.

Yes, it’s silly hot right now. It was hot last night around midnight. But in October we hope things will be much, much better.

And we’ve decided that Foxy is radishes.

I thought we decided on turnipes.

Turnips darn it.

Second weekend in October? Possible. Let me check with the wife; her family’s down there, and we’re overdue for a visit. (Which wasn’t going to happen any earlier than September anyway, barring family emergency.)

Radishes = ravishing.

Turnips/turnipes = :confused:

You know, turnips. Tuuuuurnips. :wink:

Shibb has the right of it here. I posted that just after midnight, when I had just come in from outside where it was all nasty. Maybe by October it will only be 75 degrees overnight.

October (and April) are my favorite times to be there. The weather is usually perfectamundo at those times of year.

Hi Bambi

Radishes? I suppose I am radishes…

October, 15th perhaps? It’s a Saturay, we can go do something during the day and then continue it on until somebody gets tired and goes home. Or if someone is willing to donate their house to the cause, we can start somewhere and end there. And if anyone wants to bring along some early 20’s hot men for me to play with or if someone is an early 20’s hot (single) man for me to play with that would be even better. Alright so wait what were we talking about again?
October. I’m thinking we can maybe meet somewhere, the Aquarium or something fun like that. Depends on if we want to do Tampa or St. Pete. St.Pete is not, according to the popular misconception, the “ghetto”. Only the southside and only after dark.
If we do Tampa then I need to get a better map.
I just need to know what day it will be so that I can take that day off and the day after that too.

Any good ideas about where to go, what to do, where to eat? I don’t have any requests, just somewhere that I can eat vegetarian and/or fish dishes. I’m not too strict so if there’s absolutely nowhere then I’ll deal with it.

I’m too tired so I am going to bed.

I am bumping this because I have sent an email to everyone I could get from this thread and the “is there anything to do in Tampa” thread. If I missed anyone, email me and I will forward you a copy. I’m willing to plan if everyone who needs to be notified is notified.

So, did everyone get their invite?

Okay kids. Count me in. Here’s a link to Fort De Soto

Fort De Soto
If there’s any interest, I’ll be glad to look further into it. Not too familiar with Tampa, but anything I can do, lemme know. October is a beeeeuuuutiful time of year here.

I was thinking we could do some type of potluck picnic during the afternoon. We could even bring the family kids and all. As day turns into night we can then move it someplace more adult, lose the kids and up the rating of the Dopefest from G to XXX… I mean R.

Amp’s suggestion sounds like a good one. The Dope gatherings I have been to have been similar, and quite enjoyable.

I didn’t get an email but then again I may not have mine listed. I’ll have to check.

Not sure if I can make it or not, Oct. 15th is ringing a bell for some reason, either I have something else I have to do then or that Quasimodo guy is just ringing his bell again.

Your emails not listed. Email Foxy or me and we’ll get you on “the list”. And you MUST be there.

So, have all the Florida Dopers fallen victim to the humidity and heat or has this idea lost interest?

Something must be done about this!

Ft. De Soto sounds like a good plan. Does someone need to reserve a pavillion or should we just swap cell numbers and figure it out when we get there? I reccommend reserving a pavillion, just because I am a freak for schedule organization. After De Soto, what shall we do?
Any suggestions or if someone needs a copy of the invite can email me at lady_foxfyre at hotmail, or ladyfoxfyre at hotmail, whichever you feel like typing.

Suggestions!
