Elliott's Spring Gathering = Fun!

(Edited slightly for cleanup and to add a few details. Typing this on a phone is a little bit cumbersome. :P )
As with last year, Elliott's Spring Gathering was a lot of fun! Much thanks to
wfa and
solidasp for very graciously putting me up (and putting up with me).
nimrais spent a lot of time with us and really made the weekend a lot more fun.
It was a little slow on Saturday, but I really enjoyed all the socializing and sightseeing that I was able to do during the weekend, including a visit to Gatorland. I spent quite a bit of time talking and hanging out with people I don't often get to see (
triggerfox,
genesisw,
apollowolfhusk,
yamibliss,
cooner,
gideon and many others). I come all the way down here for this event because of the great people and it has not been a disappointment yet!
The surprise show of this year's event was Shrek Forever After at the Pleasure Island movie theater; His Majesty reserved an entire theater for us. Very good movie and a lot of fun! (And in 3-D!)
I'm still at the Radisson in Kissimmee, but everyone else is long gone. I had planned to go out earlier and shop at Downtown Disney, but a very nasty thunderstorm put the kibosh on that. 60mph winds and a torrential downpour made going outside a bad idea. The hotel pool was dull of deck chairs when the storm was over.
I'll be on my way back home Tuesday morning. I'm hoping to have a short visit with
wolfboy1 on Wednesday as I pass through Virginia.
While I've had a great time, I'm looking forward to sleeping in my own bed again!

See you Wednesday!
I hope you had a wonderful birthday and anniversary!
Looking forward to seeing you again sometime soon!
I'm so glad you were able to come. It would have felt empty without you. See you next year! :)
