Some great news! My eldest is graduating from Clemson's Industrial Engineering program Friday!

Wish I could say we were flying off to VWL tomorrow instead of NC and would prefer ME to driving 3 hrs to Clemson, but this is a huge accomplishment and not one I'll let myself nor his little brother or sister miss!

Now to figure out the car rental situation in CLT... I heard those airport roads were like a maze - I like mazes, but not when I'm being timed by a return flight. "Turn left at Rental road" (left turn made) ".... recalculating"

Blossomz, best wishes for an easy surgery and fast recovery. Your shoulder's not required to come visit us here

A perfect place to recoop.

Be sure to carry your camera. It is limited to maybe 6 people.

Thanks for your response. It is just me, DH and DS (5) and we are looking forward to trying it. Do we need to be checked in first or can I send my husband over to check in while I go to guest relations?

Knowing you have that many days, I would get room # then sign up for FF. If you have to wait for room assignment, go ahead and sign up, they will link to your room # later. They will bring a letter night before and slip under door. If you dont get it by 9pm, go back to desk to verify your name is still on list. We have had one occasion letter never came and they told us just to come on, they would be ready for us. it is an exclusive deal, so you will be only folks up there.

Thank you

JimmyTammy: I love the Carolinas, it's been far too long since I've come down for a visit. I miss the air, the woods, the beaches, and most of all - some of my favorite people live there!
