We want more... Tell us how you became a Parrot Head, and why you joined TBPH:

I've listened to Buffett tunes since I was a buck-toothed skinny kid in Idaho. Never really caught on until I actually "paid attention" to the lyrics and heard "blew out a flip-flop, stepped on a pop top"! Been there and done that!! From then on his tunes were among my favorites. Before moving here from California I researched the TBPH club and couldn't wait to go to the Parrot Head party in Palm Harbor. Puck and I showed up to the 2006 party with check in hand ready to join! Unfortunately we didn't actually get that accomplished until earlier this year when we pulled the boat up to the raft up on one-tree island and literally jumped in feet first! One of the best things we ever did! We have been going non-stop since that day and have already made some great friends. We look forward to meeting many more friends, helping out in our community and doing what we can to make the TBPH club a fun place to be!
