Good morning, Misty, and welcome to Tripatini! 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 several of our many groups which you may find of particular interest, such as Florida, Hotels/Motels, Travel Marketers/Publicists, Resorts Corner, Beach-Bumming, Eating/Drinking the World, and plenty of others covering many 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, and your property (it would help both yourself and our other members -- especially media -- to name and describe the property in your profile).

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, colleagues, and associates. 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, Misty; we wish you an outstanding rest of 2009 and look forward to seeing you online.

Cheers!
