Greetings, Jan, and welcome to Tripatini! It's great to have you with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.

To get the most out of Tripatini, you may want to take a moment to join even several more of our many groups which you may find of particular interest, such as Pennsylvania, Bed & Breakfasts/Inns/Pensions, Vacation Rentals, Eating/Drinking the World, Wine Tourism, Honeysmoons/Weddings, Family Travel, and plenty of others covering many other topics and most destinations across the globe.

FYI, on your profile you'll see a green bar marked "Text Box," which you can turn into a box containing not just text but also photos and even videos about yourself, your interests, your travels, Lancaster County, and the Artist's Inn & Gallery.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, colleagues, associates, and clients/guests. It's fast and easy to use our "INVITE" function above left on the navigation bar to enter e-mails (even your whole list at once!).

Thanks much for joining us; we wish you a great December and an outstanding new year, and look forward to seeing you online.

Cheers!
