Does anyone have a GPS unit we can use in one of the vehciles? It might help for directions, plus I've heard that newer units even warn of road closures/traffic problems and provide alternative routes. Also it looks like we have more vehicles volunteered than needed. I'm sure the Xterra and I know t...

By my count we have six - Kris, Ghazanfar, Rodney, Michael, Sean and George (our cichlid expert). Do we all want to pile into my Honda Odyssey mini-van with the roof rack loaded or do we opt for two vehicles? George has offered his small pick-up as a second vehicle - it would provide space for our d...

When will we have a final decision?

I'm really interested in doing whatever I can to see that we can pull this off. Once you develop the collecting bug it is hard to find a cure. I’m especially interested since I must take a hiatus on traveling to Peru. The Margarita trip conflicts with a thirtieth wedding anniversary. (Priorities -...

Sitting here in my fishroom with George (PVAS & CCA). He ands I are neighbors and traveled together last summer to Peru. He would be interested in joining us on the trip if that would be OK with the GWAPA members. What say those who are going?

I can make any of those extended weekends. My preference would be for the weekend when the greatest number of us can partake. I'm also very much in favor of Thursday-Tuesday.

Memorial day weekend in May or the second weekend in June works for me if we can't do it the first weekend. I'm in favor of four days in Florida, depart Thursday and return Tuesday. While in Tampa area we can visit my cousin - she and her husband own the best ice cream shop in the Tampa area (http:/...

I'm in and I can offer a mini-van that holds six.

I can take whatever time is needed - I'm in a f=job I need to take a week off every three months just to keep sane. May and/or June is when I'm due for another week off. I can offer a Honda Odyssey mini-van that seats a total of seven but really just six comfortably. Or, better yet four in the capta...

Beginner signed up

I signed up. I'm a pre/pre-beginner. Can't even start to remember the Latin Names (or common names) of the plants acquired at the last two meetings. I'll pay my $20 on the 28th.
