Let's try something different to end the year, We would like to gather our VRCC friends at the Salt Springs Recreational Area in the Ocala National Forest for a simple but delicious feast in the woods. This is a very serene place with magical healing powers !!  A Gorgeous clear water pool with springs, the grounds have picnic tables and bathroom facilities. There is a small entrance fee, 6 bucs I think. I will check into a club discount ! We will bring some fixins, Boars head cold cuts, (ham and American cheese), shredded lettuce some nice hoagie rolls, mayo, mustard, and some chips, paper plates and plastic ware. Let's make this a BYOB, "Bring Your Own Beverage". There is a gas station very close to the entrance if need be. If there is another (2nd) meat we can agree on I will add it, like Turkey or Liverwurst ! An accurate count before hand will be helpful so we don't over or under buy. Also side dishes are welcome, and bring tomatoes/pickles as you wish. If you prefer to bring your own samich/hoagie/submarine/or wedge let us know. ! Let's hope for some nice weather so we can reminisce about this crazy 2016 year.  Mike and Liz  Meet at noon start eating 12:30. 13851 N Highway 19, Fort McCoy

I was looking forward to this, but I just found out we will be in Jacksonville attending the College Graduation of our God Child the night before. Will probably be in bed until about Noon on Saturday.

As much as I would love to make this one, I am on some drugs that affects my balance and Doc says no riding till I am off this stuff. Looks like another 2 weeks of meds to go. Figures I would only get this crap during the best riding time of the year. Guess I will stick to the boats for a while, if I fall out, I just get wet, no road rash.

 Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you’re in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.

Should be nice day to try out your cold weather gear !  Possible high of 60* ??? ! I wonder if Eddie will venture out in that fresh crisp air.  We should have the place to ourselves.

There are plenty of picnic tables, we couldn't decide where we want to set up cuz they all look great, a few concrete slabs have 2 tables able to hold 20 peeps easily, decent bathroom facilities we will be within a short walk of and the snack shack. Thanks for heads up Steve, work on recruiting some of those fellas and hope you feel better. Hope to see Deb and Fred feeling good enough to make it and Jym with the warden.

Mike & Liz,
This is a really nice thing you're doing, and I'm impressed with the entire thing! No wonder to me why this Florida group has remained vital and relevant all this time, and why indeed the ranks have even swelled! Thank you for taking the initiative and making the effort to contribute above and beyond... You do make a difference!!!
I do plan to attend, assuming I make it home from Alabama tomorrow... No guarantees ever with this guy, of course, but as near as I can tell at the moment, I should be there wearing my Gerbings and a big ol' smile... (Hope this doesn't discourage anyone else from going...)
