Well, our first Parrot Grande was quite a bit of fun. Buffet fans from around the country converge, listened to music, raced their pirate boats (that's a subject in itself) and raised close to $10,000 for the West Valley Crisis Center. 
Pirates come in all sizes
The music was fantastic and we especially enjoyed time with our friend Mark Mulligan whose music can be heard on Radio Margaritaville or downloaded from ITUNES.
In addition to the funds raised to support the kids, Parrotheads gathered well over a thousand pairs of flip flops to send to our troops as part of operation flip flop.
Best wishes Ron & Ruth + Gene & Amy
