Even with all the serious business that must be conducted during a lock-in, there is no reason to think that everyone can’t have a good time as well. Geneva Peacock, GM at Plantation Suites in Port “A”, did a wonderful job of seeing that everyone not only had a good time - they had  a GRAND time!

On Sunday, after checking in, everyone gathered in the hospitality suite to “meet and greet”. Food was provided by Mark at Little Joe’s Smok’n Grill. Mark also provided the lunches during the meetings and the shrimp boil on Tuesday evening. We greatly appreciate all the fine fixins’!

On Monday evening, Geneva planned a very special event. The U.S.S. Lexington is a WWII aircraft carrier that is docked in Corpus Christi.  Geneva booked one of the rooms for a private dinner, and everyone was treated to a guided tour of the ship. It was truly a night to remember.

Wednesday night was one to remember as well, however, for somewhat different reasons. After the shrimp boil, the band began to play.  It didn’t take long before some of the “audience” decided they could be better “entertainers”. Without offering any comments as to the quality of the performances, we can just report that Kevin belted out 3 songs, etc. and the finalle teamed Paul and Geneva in a rousing rendetion of John Denver’s Country Roads.

Rumor has it that Plantation Suites might be selected as the location of the future lock-in. I don’t know how Geneva can top this one, but it will be no surprise when she does.
