Celebrating 80 years next year.


Any AA'ers going?  I am.  I just got a registration form in the mail today.  I'm sending it back tomorrow.  So excited!!

I hadn't thought about it, but now I will! July in Atlanta sounds delightful. LOL No offense to anyone from Atlanta. Maybe it wouldn't be as hot as I imagine??? I've only been "through" there so what do I know.

I should let my H know in case he is interested. I have family in Atlanta so we could go together and I could visit while he AAs it up

That's why God invented air conditioning.  I went to the 75th in San Antonio--holy humidity Batman!  

It'll be in Detroit in 2020, which I'm sure will be hotter than Hades too.  2025 it'll be in British Columbia, which sounds like more my style of weather.  lol

It's such an AMAZING display of fellowship.  I've been to the one in Seattle in 1990 and in San Antonio in 2010.  There's no way to describe the opening ceremony when thousands and thousands of AA'ers recite the Serenity Prayer in unison. Incredible.

 MN does an AA/Al Anon weekend every Memorial Day and I've heard great things about that too.  I know already I'm making an effort to get to that.

Well if you can make it, let's have a mini little GTG...if you're up for it.   (rose)

I'm not active in AA, but I'm planning to try to be more active in al-anon...and I live in the Atlanta area too!
I'll have to ask my H if he's thinking about going.

SwimDeep I didn't know you lived in the Atlanta area too!
