It will be nice to relax after moving day... Ice cold drinks, awesome food and plenty of company to share it with. It can't come fast enough...

Don't forget! Saturday night, September 1st is the night to "talk tropics" with your fellow Storm2k friends.

Fun starts at 7:00 PM, rain or shine at Bru's Room at 235 S. Federal Highway, Pompano Beach. Visit the website at http://www.brusroom.com for a map and directions.

If you haven't done so already, please let us know if you're planning to attend by PM'ing BocaGirl or weatherwindow or replying to this post. We're trying to get a rough idea of how many people are coming.

See you there!

The September gathering was the best! The conversation ranged from weather (naturally) to sports, cars, drinks with funny names and everything in between. We welcomed Nathan (SouthFloridawx) and his friend Amanda back to South Florida. We ended the evening only because Bru's Room was closing the dining room! No one wanted to leave! We hope you can join us in October.

Here are some pictures:

Is there any chance a gathering could be had on a Saturday night north of Deerfield? I missed the last one that was close to me, I live west of Boynton. And my wife already thinks I am nuts for posting on this board. So, a long drive to gather socially is out of the question for me. But, I may be able to swing a short drive.

I have an idea...why not try bring your wife to to the October group? It's a really great time and we laugh and talk about more than weather during the course of the evening. That's what makes these gatherings so much fun.

The place for the next one is already set. Let's see where the November-December gathering ends up.

Bring my wife???? I bring her enough places. She probably doesn't want to go. And getting a babysitter is a pain, and an extra 50 bucks at least.
