    Chuck,

    I think there is an anniversary coming up.
    Not that you need a reason to come to Jamaica.

    Cubbyblu, missed you again. e'll be at CSS on 9/1! Then to CN on the 4th. We're booked for our usual Labor Day CN trip for 2012, also. We will mix things up a bit and hit CSA in April 2012, for a change.

    I'm sure one day our paths will cross again. We seem to be visiting the Couples Resorts right around the same time each year!

    As of Saturday, 7/2, we have eight weeks until we reach paradise (September 3-10). We recently had a tragedy...my 32 year old son died on 6/17 of an apparent heart attack. I need this trip more than ever.

    Thanks, EPaso Angie. We'd be happy to buy the second round. I'm looking forward to meeting you.

    Dave's passing was a tragedy. We are trying to celebrate his life instead of morning his passing.

    Hello all - Not happy here. I need to have back surgery very soon, I ruptured a disk while on business travel and spent a couple of days in the hospital. I have a doctors appointment this afternoon to see what is next. Hopefully I can get it done really soon and be recovered enough to make it to CSS on the 14th of Sept. I am really bummed right now at even the remotest possibility of missing this vacation. Please good Jamaican vibes my way.

    I am hoping to see you all in 55 days!!

    Sending the good Jamaican vibes :-) I posted on your other one about just having had spinal surgery in my neck on 7/5. Good luck with the surgery and walking is encouraged after surgery.....what better place to walk than on a beautiful beach. I think floating int he sea would be excellent physical therapy....look forward to meeting you when we arrive on the 20th from CN.

    Thanks Nanmac1! I just updated my post in the other forum. Bottom line NO SURGERY.

    The doctor prescribed steroids, pain meds, physical therapy, and 2 Bob Marley's on 14 September.

    The other doctors were crazy according to this doctor. This guy is some rock star neurosurgeon and came with excellent references so I will roll with him. I do in fact have 2 ruptured disks and a pelvic bone issue all putting pressure on the nerve roots.

    So the count down clock is restarted...53 days and counting!

    Thanks for all the positive thoughts and good Jamaican Vibes...they worked!

    Default Bad News :-(

    I hate saying this. Gail and I can't believe what happened today. Ok hang on.

    I started this thread almost a year ago after we came back from CTI with 2 visits to CSS to enjoy something a bit different. We have been counting down for almost a year! If you know me...and 4 great friends here do know me and you all know how much I look forward to my time with Gail and friends, new and old, and visiting the great Jamaica.

    Well I am in the office this afternoon and the president of the company pops and email out to me and my team announcing a mandatory All - Hands meeting on the 15th of September and I need to lead the meeting. Our trip is scheduled to start on the 14th for 10 days......











    Oh wait...he said the 15th of October...never mind.

    See everyone on the 14th of September. 34 days and 15 hours and counting.

    Sorry I am just so excited about getting there I needed to have a bit of fun. First round of Bob Marleys are on me!

    Soon Come Mon....:-)
