Wow, what happened to March? Somehow it suddenly morphed into April, which means, in addition to our almost daily severe weather alerts, it's time for another Travel Group meeting!
The next Tulsa Area Rick Steves Travel Group Meeting will be Saturday, April 19, at Panera Bread at 41st and Hudson in Tulsa (that's 5601 E. 41st, between Yale and Sheridan), at 9:30 a.m.
We had a great turnout last time, and are especially hoping to see some of the new folks return. Most of the regulars are either traveling now - but will be back for the meeting - or planning trips for later this year, so there will certainly be plenty to talk about.
Our meetings are all about sharing our experiences and learning from others. We love hearing each other's stories, asking questions, and offering our own hints and tips. For those of you who are new to travel groups, picture this: A congenial group of folks who, when they ask to see your pictures, mean all of them. A group of folks who mean it when they say "Tell me all about your trip." A group of folks whose eyes do not glaze over when you start talking about your travel, whether it be travel past, future, or just hypothetical. A group of folks who are eager to learn, share, ask and answer questions, give and receive advice. For some of us, the meeting is the high point of our month!
As always, all travel related topics are open for discussion, and all comers are welcome. It's an open forum - come join in the fun. We want to hear your stories, answer your questions, see your photos and scrapbooks, and share your enthusiasm.
And yes, I realize our meeting is set for Easter weekend, but give yourself a break from holiday prep, and hop on over for a couple of hours of restorative travel talk.
If you love to travel, or would like to travel, or are curious about travel, come join us. Anyone is welcome; you don't have to have been on a Rick Steves tour, or any tour at all. You'll recognize us by the RS books on the table, and the big smiles on our faces.
