[TLinden16]

Wow. I haven't even posted yet, and I'm already on the list.

Oh wait, I can't make it. I'm washing my hair that day!

Just kidding. Of course I'll be there. I even arranged transporation through an excellent taxi service. ;)

[goofy4tink]

Based on recent history, we seemed to be joined at the hip!!! Of course I listed you already!!!! Doofus!!

[CamColt]

I'm in! :thumbsup2
It will probably be me, DH and the boys.

[magiroux]

WooooooooHoooooooooo :woohoo: :woohoo:

Count Julia and me in on the fun.

Your chariott awaits, if you wish, Diane!!!

[Cthia]

I think I can make it. I have never been to Canopie lake and I know my 2 kids would love to go, getting to the perfect age. I'll have to talk my DH into going too. Adding the date in my calendar book.

[goofy4tink]

Hi Cindy...hope you can make it. We have lots of DIS fun...great bunch of people.

[TLinden16]

Hey, Diane is my chariot. So if you get Diane, you better have room for me ;)

[goofy4tink]

Oh I can see it all now...Mary Ann, Julia, me, Katie, George and Karen all together...too funny. Keep in mind, Karen is planning on staying until they kick her out, and I did make a promise that I would stay too!!! George still hasn't made up his mind yet...I'm not sure he would stay until the bitter end. So he may be better off just staying at home. But, maybe his knee will be better then...he is having arthroscopic surgery on it next Friday. He is telling everyone that I killed his knee in WDW two weeks ago...so not true. It was on it's way out anyway and he really needs a total replacement. I was just trying to get it moved up a bit!!!!

[CamColt]

LOL! That car ride sounds like as much fun as our plane ride is going to be. :dance3:

Hope George does well with his surgery, Dianne!

[magiroux]

I travel 100 miles and stay till they throw us out, all for the honor of having the Boogie Queen grace my vehicle :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:

BTW, who's bringing the bacon?? :rotfl2:

[magiroux]

He is telling everyone that I killed his knee in WDW two weeks ago...so not true. It was on it's way out anyway and he really needs a total replacement. I was just trying to get it moved up a bit!!!!

Because that's the kind of thoughtful, loving wife you are :hug: . Did you kick him in the knee too...ya know, just to move it up a bit :lmao:

Hope everything goes smoothly for him. pixiedust:

[goofy4tink]

Well, I don't think it's going to be George bringing the bacon....I think he's going to back out. I think we scare him. Must have been that Wednesday at WDW with her Highness!!! Scared the living bejeebers out of the poor man..all the whoohooing, and 1-2-3...JUMP, and 'not hitting little Buford' etc.....come on guys...after all, he is only a 'man'. We all know how sensitive they are...poor little dears. Just not up to partaying hartay!!!!

[TLinden16]

I have fun. That's all that matters.

Diane don't whop George's Knee no more
Don't whop George on the knee
Diane don't whop George's knee no more
I think you should shoot him in the knee

Nah. That just doesn't sound right.

[goofy4tink]

WooooooooHoooooooo The Jones are coming :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

But, remember to bring the proper measuring apparatus so that DISers may always stay a safe distance from the flying chunks :rotfl2: . I do believe it was you that came up with the appropriate mathamatical formula for safe distance :thumbsup2 .

[CamColt]

I have one thing to say............WAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! :sad1: :sad1: :sad1:

It turns out I have a wedding to go to on 8/12. I just knew no matter what day was picked it would be the day of this wedding. So, it looks like I wont be making it after all. I hate to say it, but you can remove us from the list.

Bummer..........I see you're at WDW for Christmas. We are there the 26th - 31st after the Magic X-Mas 10 Day Cruise. Perhaps we can meet for a drink :drinking1 (or two :drinking1 :drinking1 ) at JellyRolls?????

I am SO not amused!! It's not going to be the same without you. But, we will trudge on. At least you're still on for MouseFest and JR4, right??!!!

[goofy4tink]

Come on people...surely there are others out there that are up for a good time!!!!

[jonestavern]

Yooooooo Hooooooooooooo!

Let's get some of you out to CLP :thumbsup2
Remember, you don't want to go without your DIS buddies--we know all the CLP secrets--like how to avoid Bozo :clown: :scared1: ,
chunkage spray danger zones theory :scared1: --this proved invaluable on the da Vinci's Dream ride--(we possessing this knowledge know that chunkage(hurlage)/speed/elevation formula is the true daVinci's Code!) :lmao: --
Boston Tea Party heavenly showers radius! :umbrella:
Sneak a quick kiss & cuddle on the Caterpillar ride! :dance3:

Watch Jean & Chris attempt using last year's refillable mugs! :rolleyes:
See DS17 Patrick try to avoid :blush: the whooooooooooooooooooo wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 'adults'! :rotfl2:

Take part in regal pagentry as Her Majesty lets loose her whooooooooooo wheeeeeeeeeeee @ CLP! :banana:

Lots of great kiddie rides, fun shows--I think there will be a Cher tribute show this year--get out your bell bottoms & navel rings!--lovely landscaping--& oh, yes! and something about buckets??............ :teeth:

Diane--tell George to come along, Chris trashed his ankle(it is much better, now) so they can hobble about together. Perhaps George can rent an ECV & 'herd' us all along! pirate:

I am such a WEENIE! :blush:

Jean

[TLinden16]

I was wondering if the JonesTavern family would be bringing back their refillable mug ;)

Turkish Twist is evil.

[travelin' tigger]

Hey all -
Hoping to make it to CLP again this year - it'll be nice to recognize some faces from last year. Anyway, unless Phil and I head to the Cape for the weekend, I should be there - will let you know if I'm bringing someone later on!!!

Looking forward to the Tea Party!!! :wave:

Cool! We will be there 21st-29th (minus the 24th to go to the Pats/Jaguars game). We will definitley have to plan something.

LOL, Diane. I was not amused either. As soon as he said the dates I just cringed.

[goofy4tink]

:Pinkbounc

[philaround]

DW and I, and maybe grandson, will try to get up there for this. I'll be haveing my 4th, and hopefully last, chemo about 3 weeks before this meet. With some luck I should be well enought to make the trip. Hope to see you all then,
P.S. Any recommendations for accomodations in the area?

[SeaSpray]

I hope all of you New Englands have a great time! That's the week right before our Disney Magic cruise, AND I'll still be at the Jersey Shore that weekend :beach: so we won't be able to make it.

Have fun... and I know you will!! :sunny:

Oh, and let me know if you plan any other Boston meets for this summer; I have YET to ride the swan boats or do the duck tour!!!! *quack*

[TLinden16]

Phil, I've never stayed in any of them, but there are a ton of hotels right off Route 93 in Andover, MA. That will only be about a 15 minutes from Canobie Lake. If you go to Travelocity, and search for them, you will see them. Make sure you map them so you chose one right off the highway. There are about four or five of them.

[goofy4tink]

And there's a Radisson right off 495 in Chelmsford...about 25 minutes to CLP. Ds just stayed there last weekend. Hope you can make it....that would mean you're feeling better!!!! And that's what's important!

[threeboysmom]

Me, Me, Me! Oh, pick Me!! We will all be there- Blue, Pink, and boys! I've been waiting for this!

[laxplaya1346]

im pretty sure i can go :)

[heathriel]

My husband and I should be there - woo hoo, my first Dis meet outside of WDW ;)

And maybe I might even bring some PotC Mobile stuff with me for you guys :)

[aengus]

pretty sure we can be there :) 3 of us again, maybe 4 who knows!

[magiroux]

Wow...great to see more people joining the fun :banana: :banana:

Jean, Julia can surely hold your hand. She thinks she's too cool for ice-cream since she road the CannonBall.

[goofy4tink]

Katie too!!! That Karen is a 'child thief' I tell ya. She offers to take your 'child' on a rollercoaster and when she brings 'em back to you, the kid is no longer a 'child', afraid of rollercoasters!!! But a grown-up kid, looking for more and more excitement!!
For a moment there I thought you were posting to tell us you weren't going Maryann!!!! Phew...glad to see that's not the case.

[irishbosoxfan]

I just kind of skimmed the posts but there are a few hotels right in Salem about 5 minutes from CLP maybe one exit down from CLP--

Also please,please,please I have a favor to ask from anyone who will be making the trip to CLP----At the park they used to have these machines where you could press out a coin----I have one for myself and 3 of my kids but would like to be able to get one made for my DD4 who has never made it to CLP--They cost $1 I believe---Would any of you going be willing to make a coin up for me?? I would pay you of course!

[magicmommy]

WOW...sounds like you guys are going to have a great time. I would love to meet up...we only live about 1/2 hour from CLP but we will be in the World :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc for a 16 day trip and won't be home until the 19th....have a great time...hope to meet up with you another time!

No Ma'am. Can't get rid of me that easy ;)

[irishbosoxfan]

Thanks I'll do that--Hopefully someone will be able to do it!!

[goofy4tink]

Thanks I'll do that--Hopefully someone will be able to do it!!
Have no fear...you'll most likely end up with more than you reckoned with!!!

[heathriel]

If anyone needs a ride to this, I've got room in my car for two more people and will be coming from Woburn, MA.

The more the merrier!

[alien]

For the hotel question . . .
To get to Canobie, you take Exit 2 off Route 93. If you take a right off the exit (heading to Canobie), there is a Red Roof Inn (1-603-898-6422) on the right hand side. If you take a left off the exit, there is a Holiday Inn (1-603-893-5511) and Fairfield Inn (1-603-893-4722) on the left (Keewaydin Drive).

Can't make the meet - will be in Florida!

Thanks for the hotel info. I just made my reservation for the Red Roof Inn. See you all at Lake Canobie on the 12th.

Thanks Diane. I'm looking forward to seeing all of you guys again. It will most likely be just DW and me this time.

[alien]

Just a note for those staying at the Red Roof Inn - turn right when you get off exit 2 in Salem. At the next set of lights, take a right onto South Policy Street. The driveway for the Red Roof Inn will be the first on the right. You can see it from the highway but have to make those couple of turns to get to the motel.
Cindy

[goofy4tink]

Just bumping us up in case there are some last minute people that want to join the fun!!!!

[MEG&MINNIE]

Any other N.E. Disers out there :wave: ...I've marked my date,lets hope that the weather cooperates !!!Can't wait :woohoo: :woohoo:

[threeboysmom]

Just a few weeks away until Cannonball time!!! :woohoo:

Hey Daviedude! Why don't you park your car at my house and drive down with us? You can be subjected to the very wild & crazy drivings of Mrs. Pink! :drive: More thrilling than any ride you'll find at Canobie Lake Park! ;)

But honestly, there's no point in both of us making the drive down when you practically go right by my house on your way down....

[BouncingTigger]

Oh I can see it all now...Mary Ann, Julia, me, Katie, George and Karen all together...too funny. Keep in mind, Karen is planning on staying until they kick her out, and I did make a promise that I would stay too!!! George still hasn't made up his mind yet...I'm not sure he would stay until the bitter end. So he may be better off just staying at home. But, maybe his knee will be better then...he is having arthroscopic surgery on it next Friday. He is telling everyone that I killed his knee in WDW two weeks ago...so not true. It was on it's way out anyway and he really needs a total replacement. I was just trying to get it moved up a bit!!!!
wait wait wait wait WAIT!!!!! Oh-Boogie-full one is riding with us?? COOL!! We can sing the Buffard song the entire way there!!!! WOOT WOOT!!! o, I mean woo.

[BouncingTigger]

Yooooooo Hooooooooooooo!

Let's get some of you out to CLP :thumbsup2
Remember, you don't want to go without your DIS buddies--we know all the CLP secrets--like how to avoid Bozo :clown: :scared1: ,

nope, I'm not going on that stupid turkish twist thing!!!!!

[goofy4tink]

:Pinkbounc :woohoo:

[goofy4tink]

Okay everyone...time to start thinking more concrete here. What time do you all want to meet up? Some of us are planning on staying for the entire day, in order to do the fireworks at the end...a long day. Last year we all met up just inside the entrance, beside the carousel...then some formed groups and went off, and we all met up again later. Anyone know for sure what time the park opens?

[threeboysmom]

nope, I'm not going on that stupid turkish twist thing!!!!!

I'm with you! That Turkish Twist thing is EVIL, I tell you, EVIL!!!!!!! And to think I used to love that ride when I was a teen. :confused3 My sister and I used to do handstands when it first started so that we would be hanging upside down when it really got going! (I don't think they allow that now, LOL!)

[harrycalder]

Hello,

If us new folk (well, new to DIS boards, longtime amusement park/roller coaster fan) are welcome, I may be joining you. In response to the question of park hours from a couple of posts ago, the park's web site lists 11am to 10pm. Usually this is pretty accurate, as the park has the same hours everyday during July and August.

I've organized meet-ups at this park for coaster enthusiast groups and have always found that having at least two meeting times is beneficial. The park offers a discounted admission after 5pm, so I recommend one of the meet times be around 5:30pm or 6pm. Typically, meets that I've organized have been at the entrance area of Yankee Cannnonball. The carousel is a good landmark, but it's right near the park entrance, so if you have a meet time at opening, it might be difficult to get the group organized in that location. The Rowdy Roosters ride is another good central landmark, and it's a little more out of the way at that time.

That's my two cents. If I can make it, I look forward to meeting some of you. If not, have a good time at my favorite New England amusement park.

-Jason

[MEG&MINNIE]

I did read on their web site that the park opens @ 11am($27.00) and as another poster wrote...discount admisions after 5pm ($17.00). The park looks like it closes @ 10pm.Discount admission for children under 48 in tall !!! Hope this helps :thumbsup2

[daviedude]

well if we have 2 meet times that could be beneficial to some who cant be there till later how ever i maybe late for the first time but way early for the second so i may have to catch up. oh i so cant wait till this meet it will be so much fun , unlike jerry eats his weight in pork was LMAO!!!!!JK LOL Nothing like watching a fat guy eat LOL :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl: :happytv:

[goofy4tink]

I'm liking the whole 2 different meet times. We will have cell phones, so if someone arrives in between the two meets and wants to find us, they can call. Karen is very good at answering her phone in the parks!!!
And Jason, we would love for you to join us...we love meeting new friends!!!

[DisneyAddict_M]

Hey, I just saw this (there was a link on the CB). I live in Salem. :goodvibes There's a VERY good chance I'll be able to make it since my dd will be away that weekend. I'll be solo...I doubt my boyfriend will want to go (he's kind of anti-social ;) ). I'll have to read the rest of the thread later, since I'm short on time right now. :)

Yay!

Would love to have you join us Melinda!!! Hope you can be there.

[travelin' tigger]

Just an FYI - AAA Southern NE has CLP park tickets for $23. It's only $4, but that'll buy you just over a gallon of gas!!! :lmao:

[MEG&MINNIE]

A little off topic here but just had to vent , a little. My DS turned 18 yesterday and for his birthday I suggested that he and a friend go to Six Flags for the day to celebrate his Birthday. It is about 1.5 hrs away , so I told him he could sleep over his friends house who lives about an hour away. So last nite I called him @ his friends house to ask how his trip went and he said they didn't go :sad2: . After they drove all the way there they figured it was way too expensive to go !It was 49.99 @ the gate and $15.00 for parking ! Do you believe what a "rip -off" that is ....My son would have to had paid $65.00 total for a day in the park....so needless to say he figured it just wasn't worth it to spend that much money! WDW seems like such a good deal now,compared to that ....I won't be going to Six Flags any time soon. Maybe DS 18 and his friend will want to join us at the CLP Meet... :thumbsup2

And that's the main reason I don't go to Six Flags! Did it once, quite awhile ago. It was expensive to get in, expensive to park, and although nicer than I had thought it was going to be, still not wonderful enough to make the 65 minute drive there and back. Much rather do CLP...not as big, but so much nicer! See you all there!!!

[laxplaya1346]

this is gonna rock :)

[qruthie]

I believe I will be attending! I live in Derry, NH, how could I miss the meet??? I'm not sure if I will be bringing anyone though.

A little off topic here but just had to vent , a little. My DS turned 18 yesterday and for his birthday I suggested that he and a friend go to Six Flags for the day to celebrate his Birthday. It is about 1.5 hrs away , so I told him he could sleep over his friends house who lives about an hour away. So last nite I called him @ his friends house to ask how his trip went and he said they didn't go :sad2: . After they drove all the way there they figured it was way too expensive to go !It was 49.99 @ the gate and $15.00 for parking ! Do you believe what a "rip -off" that is ....My son would have to had paid $65.00 total for a day in the park....so needless to say he figured it just wasn't worth it to spend that much money! WDW seems like such a good deal now,compared to that ....I won't be going to Six Flags any time soon. Maybe DS 18 and his friend will want to join us at the CLP Meet... :thumbsup2

Just a note for future reference. Six Flags tends to have pretty deep discounts available out there if you know where to look. I think Cumberland Farms locations have these coupons...you can also call the park directly and ask point blank if there are any discounts and promotions going on. They'll usually answer honestly because they know full well most folks won't pay the undiscounted gate price.

I do agree that Six Flags is getting too expensive. Don't expect it to get any cheaper, though, as they're very deep in debt and they also want to get more "affluent, considerate families" and less "broke, punk teenagers" through the gates these days. I'm a SF season pass holder and have only been a couple of times this year. $15 for unsecured parking is just too much "empty" expense. I've only been able to justify having an SP because it gets me into all the SF parks--a perk I've already used a couple of times and will use a few more times before the year is out.

Six Flags New England has some really great roller coasters, but on the whole, I'd rather be at (and usually have more fun at) smaller parks like Canobie Lake or Lake Compounce (near Hartford).

-Jason

P.S.: I think someone in this thread (though I may be mistaken) mentioned something about looking into getting a Canobie Lake season pass. At present time, they don't offer them. They don't want to become the regional babysitter. There are rumors, though, that they may re-examine that point of view and start offering them within the next few years.

[travelin' tigger]

My boss told a coworker and I that we would be on a 4-day work week for a trial during the month of Aug. - claims it's going to be slow here (which is a crock!) so I'll be losing some pay which makes for NO extra spending money!!! So as of now, it's looking like I'll have to pass on this, but things could change... :confused3

[phorsenuf]

I would love to meet up with you all but I'll be hanging with Yogi camping. That's where we were last year too!

Maybe next year......
Hanve a blast though! I can't remember the last time I was at Canobie.

[goofy4tink]

:cool1: :wave:

[allaboutmm]

Hey Everyone- I have never been to a DISer's get together, so I might try to make it (DH,DS's&DD would most likely come along too). Could I have the details...time (cause we do have another commitment later that night), are you all wearing lime green? Please just let me know and I will talk to my DH.
Thanks :goodvibes

[goofy4tink]

Okay guys.....we need to plan some spots to meet up....and times. We were thinking of doing two 'official' times. Perhaps one at 1:00 and then one at around 6:00. Don't know if we'll be there to the bitter end, but we'll see. So...how do those times sound to you all? We'll choose appropriate spots in the next day or so. And yes, lime green is the color of choice, as well as anything WDW oriented!!

So, here's hoping that everyone can make at least one of the meet times. Last year there was a basic band of intrepid DISers who stayed pretty much together, while others came and went as they chose.

[travelin' tigger]

Well Diane, I definitely can't make it. The money just isn't there so we're headed to the Cape instead.

Boy, I'm going to miss everyone - leave an extra space for me on the Tea Party so I can be there in spirit!!! :sad2:

[heathriel]

I've never been, so I'm at the mercy of everyone else's wishes. :)

My husband wants to know if they sell beer and cotton candy ;)

[goofy4tink]

Aww, Barb...we'll miss you. There will be other meets, so we'll catch you at the next one. Have a good time on the Cape.

Heathriel...both are available if memory serves. In fact, it could very well be that that particular combination of food products resulted in Princess Blow Chunks name!!! (no, the Princess didn't do it, just saw it!) Perhaps if your dh insists on combining those two things, he should stay away from the chair swing!!!

[allaboutmm]

My family is going to try to make it to the 1:00 meet time. I have never been to a DIS meet so I am really looking forward for it. I'll check back next Wed. to see where the meeting spot is. Off to girls only camping weekend in ME, then Sun-Wed-camping with the family in NH. Take care and happy weekend :cool1:

[MEG&MINNIE]

Looking forward to the CLP Dismeet...will try to meet up with you all @ 1pm ...me,DD10 and her friend. Here's hoping for good weather and a great day ! :thumbsup2

[threeboysmom]

Wow!! This came up fast! It's just NEXT WEEK!! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

We will probably do the 6:00 time because we just don't have the money right now to pay full price for all of us....

[MEG&MINNIE]

What exact place do you plan to have us all meet up wearing our Lime Green Shirts and Home Depot Mickey Ears ??? One week to go ! :thumbsup2

[goofy4tink]

What exact place to do plan to have us all meet up wearing our Lime Green Shirts and Home Depot Mickey Ears ??? One week to go ! :thumbsup2

It's tentative, but here is what I sort of have....have I told anyone how much I hate putting these together?? Anyway.....The meet at 1:00 will be at the International Food Plaza..that's by Kiddieland and the Yankee Cannonball entrance. Look for lime green!
At 6:00, I'm thinking the Portofino Restaurant by the Dance Hall Theater, back by the lake....again, look for the green.
But, this could change based on input of others who may be more familier than I with CLP. So, check back here the night before so you can know 'exactly' what the plan is...but I think it will be as I laid out.
See you all there!!!!

[UrsulasShadow]

I better subscribe here, just so I can sneak up on you guys when you're not looking! Hi, Diane! Just thought to look here and see that you're planning a meet. Don't know if I can make it, because it's my DD's 18th b'day, and I'll probably be curled up in a corner, crying or something, but if I can, I'll see you there!

[twotoohappy]

Well Diane, I definitely can't make it. The money just isn't there so we're headed to the Cape instead.


Yeah, I was trying to make it, but Jellyrolls is coming in 3 weeks so I gotta save my money.
Have fun everyone!
Don't do anything I wouldn't do :rotfl2:

[magiroux]

....have I told anyone how much I hate putting these together??

Yes, but you're so good at it :goodvibes

[aengus]

Not official but I believe we will be there at 1:00. I need to converse with my boss to make sure that is right LOL ;)

[TLinden16]

I'm just glad that someone else organized the meet this time around ;)

[MEG&MINNIE]

I got an idea...bring your 18 year old DD with you , you'll both have fun ! No one is ever too old to have fun ! :thumbsup2

[janice1234]

You are funny Aengus, one oclock works for me. I read most of these posts, and I believe someone had a 17 year old son attending, is he still in attendance? Our 16 year old son is on the fence, and I thought he might be interested knowing someone his age will be there. I cannot wait until Sat, this should be a blast.

[TLinden16]

Janice, you know we'd rather see you than Aengus any day. I can't recall about the 17 year old son someone mentioned, but I know there will be girls around Dooza's age there. :)

[threeboysmom]

Janice, my 14 DS will be there. As to my 16 DS..... who knows? If he's not working that day, we will be most likely dragging him along with us. Just not sure what kind of a mood he will be in, LOL! :teeth:

[philaround]

Brenda and I will be there all day. We will be arriving Friday night and staying at the Red Roof Inn Friday and Saturday night. Anyone else going to be there Friday night? Maybe we could get together for dinner.

[goofy4tink]

Okay people.....official places and times...

1:00 at the International Food Plaza. That's by the entrance to Yankee Cannonball and the kiddie area.

6:00 at the Portofino Restaurant. That's down by the Dance Hall Theater, at the back of the park, by the lake.

Look for wandering packs of lime green....or WDW themed type shirts. Don't be shy...walk right on up and say 'Hi!'...what's the worst thing that can happen if it's not us...you may make a new friend, if so, bring them along!!!

Looks like the weather should be terrific.....low 70's and sunny. Maybe not so great for the Boston Tea Party, but great otherwise!!! See you all there!!!!

[magiroux]

......or if you do plan on braving the Boston Tea Party, pack some extra dry clothes and a zip lock bag to store the wet ones :goodvibes .

See you all Saturday. Looking forward to meeting up with old friends and meeting lots of new ones!!!

[TLinden16]

Ladies, don't wear white t-shirts if you are going on the tea party ;)

Also, do they rent wheelchairs there? I might need one. I'm having pain in my foot. No fair.

[goofy4tink]

What have you done to your foot?? See you on Sat....get off that foot, and elevate it. I don't want to hear any whining from you...you WILL have fun!!!!

[qruthie]

Ladies, don't wear white t-shirts if you are going on the tea party ;)

And wear your industrial strength bras if you are going on the Yankee Cannonball! Especially if you have, um, big shoes. :rotfl:

Rolls, I don't know about wheelchair rentals but in all seriousness, I just happen to have two pair of crutches and a walker in my trunk. I'm sure you could borrow them for the day if you need them. I'm supposed to be going tomorrow so I'll make a point of looking for wheelchair info.

I'm planning on the 1:00 meeting time. Canobie Lake Park two days in a row! I have tried talking my 15 year old son into joining me but no luck so far.

Ruth

[TLinden16]

Oh, qruthie, you don't have to ask. I'll be fine. I do have a bit of pain in my foot, but I can walk. I should be fine. Thanks though :)

and I ahve no idea what I did to my foot. I have pain on the top of it. i had it x-rayed tonight. Hopefully I'll hear something tomorrow.

[qruthie]

Hey, it won't be a problem to ask. One of the people I'm going with tomorrow may need one. In any case, if you get sore walking around, I do have the crutches available. They are the metal kind that go around your forearm, not the under the armpit style. Hopefully you won't need them!

[threeboysdad]

Funny thing is, I thought we were coming and reminded her 2 weeks ago... then this weekend she said she was thinking we wouldn't come... then last night oldest DS said he would not be working because we were "making" him go to Canobie... I said "huh??? I thought we weren't going... when did mom tell you this?" :confused3

So I figured I could get an update this morning on this thread... :lmao:

I'll see you if I see you... :)

[CamColt]

I keep seeing all these commercials for Canobie Lake and I am so bummed I won't get to go and see you all, but I will be thinking of you. Have a great time everyone!!!

:wave:

Karen I'll have my ECV with me if you need to hitch a ride. Phil

[jonestavern]

I got an idea...bring your 18 year old DD with you , you'll both have fun ! No one is ever too old to have fun ! :thumbsup2

We'll have DS17 in tow :crazy: & last year's refillable cups! :rotfl2:

We'll have on our lime green--DH & DS have 'Jonestavern' polo shirts

don't know what time we're headed out, probably for 1 pm???


Jean & Chris

[MEG&MINNIE]

Leaving the Worcester area 1st thing in the morning . We should be there at the opening of the park . DD10 ,Friend 14 and myself all will be up there for the day .DD and myself will have our Lime Green shirts on ...we plan to meet you all at 1pm . DD is soooo excited and then we are all off to Maine for a little mini-vacation! :sunny: Just packed all our things, it's not the same as getting away to Disney ,but we are happy to be going to Maine !!! See ya all tomorrow :thumbsup2

[qruthie]

FYI, they do have some wheelchairs for rent. I'm not sure of the cost since I didn't do that part. The chair we had was an extra wide one so it cost extra, that much I know. It was in crappy shape, we couldn't get the brakes to work but it was usable. At least it rolled well.

I tested the Tilt-a-Whirl, Round Up, Corkscrew Roller Coaster, Yankee Cannonball Roller Coaster and Turkish Twist for all of you. They are working great. :cool1:

I'm still hoping to be there tomorrow and for the 1:00 meeting time. I plan to wear a lime green t-shirt that has flip flops on it.

[daviedude]

WOOO WHOOO me and my mother are really looking forward to today !!! look for the ugliest lime green shirt you can find and you will find me LOL TTFN see you there

[allaboutmm]

I hope you all have a fun time today. My family and I can't make it :sad2: . Just don't have the extra $ ( even w/ the AAA discount- for a family of 5 still $$) I did want to meet some few DIS-aholics, so I'll keep checking in and maybe meet up next time :) .

Bummer!! Sorry you won't be there today...we'll miss you guys. But, there's always the next time.
See the rest of you guys later today!! Hoping to see lots of 'green'!!!

[UrsulasShadow]

Have fun, everyone! Wish I could be there, but too much planned for today. I'll be thinking of you all, having fun, meeting each other....WAAAAHHHH!

[threeboysmom]

The Pink family will not be making it today. Unfortunately, with all the things that have hit us lately, we do not have the $100+ for all of us to go :(

You all have fun and we hope to catch you at the next NE Dis Meet!!

:wave2:

[heathriel]

It was great meeting you guys at 1PM today, but DH and I ended up leaving after the Yankee Canonball. Apparently, he gets a pretty bad headache after wooden coasters, a fact of which I was not previously aware, and became immediately cranky.

I have an extremely unusual sunburn on one arm, as well. Its like a strip, but wound around my arm in a weird way. I can't honestly figure out how I got it. I'll see if I can take a picture of it tomorrow :)

[qruthie]

I had the most wonderful time! It was great meeting everyone and hanging together.

WOO!

[goofy4tink]

That was a very fun day!!! Thanks everyone for joining in the fun.
Heather...we wondered where you guys went to...looked for you and couldn't find you...guess we know why now!!
Phil.....hope you're feeling better. We are all a bit concerned....missed seeing you at the 6:00, but understand.
We got the pressed penny...now to retrace through the posts and see who needed it.
I'm tired, Katie is still in bed....see you all next year!!!

[allaboutmm]

I thought of you all many times yesterday. What great weather you had!!!! I'll keep checking back to see when the next meet is. I really would like to try to meet up. :) Maybe I'll plan the next meet?

[jonestavern]

I still don't have the picture thing down yet, so sorry for the different sizes...
It was great to see so many DISers!

Well, Chris has washed the refillable cup, Patrick is featuring Whack-A-Mole winning form as a subject for his college entrance essay
& I am girding my loins to attempt a turn on the Rooster Ride @ CLP for next year's meet!

Chris, Jean & Patrick

[goofy4tink]

Great shots Jean....Chris did a great job. Only a DISer would bring back a mug to CLP!!!! Poor baby couldn't get it refilled though.
Karen hugged her Fraggle all the way home...it was a sad thing to see a 'grown' woman (and I use that term most loosely!!!) hugging a little Fraggle!!!!
It was great fun...Katie is finally in the shower, washing her feet. YUCK!!!! Hey Julia...Katie loves her CareBear!! Thanks so much for winning her one. What a buddy you are.
And Abigail....how you feeling about yourself today missie??? You should be very proud of yourself. We're really glad you got up the nerve to try the rides...it was a ton of fun having you on them with us!

[allaboutmm]

Thanks for sharing the pictures! :thumbsup2

[jonestavern]

Hey, Diane-
CLP mugs are not like WDW--free refills--no, no, you still pay ($3.50 for a 32 oz soda) or $6.50 w/o the cup, for the soda-

As we all know only very naughty persons would attempt such a thing, let alone refill such a cup 3 times! :rolleyes:

Happy line jumper & reader of park maps in the midst of major foot traffic paths,

Jean & Chris

[harrycalder]

Oh, by the by, the intrepid, & fearless!, Jason stayed to close out the park!



Indeed, and the crowds quickly retreated--it was akin to a decent evening EMH, except much shorter in duration :). Got rides on Mine of Lost Souls and Starblaster during that last half hour or so.

'Twas a fun day and I enjoyed meeting you all. Whenever ya'll have non-Disney amusement park questions, I'm at your service. :thumbsup2

-Jason

[qruthie]

Jean, I think you forgot Daviedude (wearing by far the ugliest lime green shirt as promised) and his mom!

I hope to meet each and every one of you again, hopefully all together because we had such a great time!

I told my 15 year old son about, "Woo!" He thought it was pretty funny, especially that I yelled it in the restroom only to find out Karen wasn't in there. :rotfl: He said he would have bummed money off of you all by saying (run these words together for the best effect), "Put a couple dollars in my hand woo!"

Oh Jason, I didn't realize you had headed off to the Yankee Cannonball. I would have been honored to ride it with you!

[aengus]

We all had such a great time!!! Great to meet you all and cant wait for the next meet! Where is the next? Down in fraggle rock?!?!?!?

[threeboysmom]

Jean, I think you forgot Daviedude (wearing by far the ugliest lime green shirt as promised) and his mom!

Hey Daviedude! I want to see a pic of you in that ugly shirt! LOL!

Sorry I missed all of you. :( Sounds like you had a blast and you all had PERFECT weather!

[magiroux]

Julia and I had such a great time Saturday. Perfect weather and perfect company!!!!!! I really enjoyed seeing old friends and meeting new ones.

Jason, my DD was quite impressed with all your patches..."Did he really ride all those roller coasters?"

Chris and Jean...Thanks for the great pitcures (boy, we were getting silly by the end of the day).

Diane, thanks so much for putting another successful meet together :hug: .

WhoooooooooooooHoooooooooooooooooooooooo :banana: :banana: :banana: :teeth:

Yikes! the GREEN shirt--how could I have forgotten to mention Daviedude's
magnificently green shirt!
Now he must show at the next meet so Chris can get a pic! :thumbsup2
Sorry, we couldn't seem to meet up with Daviedude & his Mom after they trotted off --was it to the Yankee Canonball?--I strong-armed Chris & we headed for the incomparable Cher show! :teeth:

Yes, Jason's patches are awesome! He is one fearless soul! :smokin:

Wonder if they have a Weenie's Meet? We could get patches for Winnie, Tea Cups, POTC, COP... :cheer2:

Heck yeah!!! You actually survived the ''Skater" didn't you??
Katie thought Jason's patches were pretty cool also....just showed her that 'grown-up's' can have a good time too!!!
Next year, I think we'll go back to a Sunday meet....the lines were awful on a Sat, what with the terrific weather, the fireworks. We'll see how it all shakes out.

Hi everyone ...just back from our 3 nt stay in Maine(Ogunquit) and had to quickly check these "Disboards" while starting up the laundry! The 3 of us had a wonderful time on Saturday...the kids got a kick out of meeting everyone ,especially those in their Lime Green (and the one Jellyrolls Shirt). CLP and the Disers were the subject of many conversations we had while up in Maine. Glad I finally got to meet you all ,even if it was for only lunch and a few rides ...let us know when the next meet is and I'll mark the date! :tink: Goofy4tink...THANKS again for organizing the meet ...you did a great job and we had a blast !!! :thumbsup2 MEG&MINNIE

[janice1234]

We had so much fun at the meet, you guys are all so much fun. The pictures were great, and Jean, I am so sorry about grabbing onto your arm for dear life on the pirate ship, I Hope I did not hurt you. We will be looking forward to the next meet, you guys are awesome. :wave:

[MEG&MINNIE]

Have a fun trip Janice1234 and Aengus and DD ...I see that you have only 7 more days till your trip . DD10 and I were down there exactlly one year ago today ...oh what memories I have of our trip ( we actually saw a beautiful rainbow over the Magic Kingdom our first evening there , after a short rain shower). Bet you can't wait :hourglass ... Have a magical and memoriable trip !!! :flower:

It was MAGNIFICENT! :dancer:
At times, politically incorrect, a cast of half dozens, 4 costume changes! :teeth:

Actually, the impersonator & cast singers had good voices--it must've been no easy feat to sound like Cher! :rotfl:
Okay, climb back down Cher fans--& I just know you're one Mary Anne!--I am a fan of her acting & admit some of her tunes are my guilty little secret :blush:

Janice, my arm is recovering just fine! :teeth: No, you did not hurt me--did I wound you? Misery loves company. Aren't we brave troopers?! :sunny:
Wow! you're WDW bound in a matter of days :cloud9:, let's share that ToT photo, now!

I will be riding Dinosaur this fall, wishing you were beside me!
As for me,I think, after 'Skater,' WDW's Dinosaur with it's few million $$$ in animatronics & getting the bejeebers jerked outta me, I should be just fine :thumbsup2

Yeah.

Mary Anne, hoping Julia uses her new table-saving skills for good only! :goodvibes
She's a great student!

I've been looking for the most inappropriate places to shout or at least say WOO!

Today's location was the endodontist's office as she was raising the chair in order to finish my root canal. I didn't yell it but she thought it was pretty funny. I guess I was the first person to do the whole woo thing at her office!

WOO!

What a great idea! I hope I remember to do that as I slide down the exam table! :rotfl2: I suppose I should do it during my mammogram too. :rotfl2:

You ladies are cracking me up here this morning!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: There is NO WAY I could get a "WOOO" out at either of those places! :rotfl2:

qruthie, I dare ya.... ;)

I'll do my best to remember! :cool1: The mammogram should be really interesting given the quietness and low lighting stuff they do to make you feel somewhat relaxed! Maybe I should bring a party hat and noise maker too! :lmao:

Meg & Minnie, thanks we can not wait for the trip, the anticipation is killing me. Jean , I wish I could ride dinosaur with you in the fall, glad to hear you are okay, and there will be no tot picture with me on that crazy ride. QRUTHIE , reading your posts about your annual gyn, and mammogram, had me laughing so hard, just the visual on docs face after a yelling woo, that will have me laughing all day. Have a great day everyone.

What is wrong with you peeps!!!!

I did learn this from the meet

The Q in Qruthie might be silent

But the Ruthie is NOT!!!!

[TLinden16]

LofreakingL Aengus.

Woo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[qruthie]

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Good one Aengus! I would have to say I was the complete opposite of silent that day! Usually I'm a bit quieter. I bet your ears are still ringing from all the Woo!

[qruthie]

Janice, Aengus and Dooza, I hope you have a wonderful time at WDW! Be sure to pose for any ride pictures and shout "Woo!" at random times and in strange places. :rotfl2:

I'm trying to think of the most inappropriate place to shout, "Woo!" at WDW. So far, the best I can come up with is to shout it during the "Two Brothers" song in the American Adventure pavilion. On the other hand, a big, "Woo!" might liven up the Carousel of Progress a bit! :rotfl2:

Have a wonderful trip!

I bet it was my influence.

I bet it was my influence.

There is no doubt in anyone's mind about that!!! Katie and I were watching a video of EE and she woo-woo'ed in all the appropriate spots!!! You are such a bad influence on everyone!!!!

Okay. :rotfl2:
