Don't know if you'll see this, JT, but it's 9:15 a.m. here and the snow has begun. You're farther south and east so won't get as much, but I think you'll still get snow and sleet. This is my 16th year in this particular area, and we've never had so many storms and missed school days in a given year. Usually, we're in the 50s-60s most days with occasionally drops into the 30s and 40s and the spot snow showers. We may, MAY hit the 50s by the end of next week. . .with rain, of course. Drive carefully and be safe!Sleepy
I understand we may be driving back in the snow tomorrow night. If you don’t mind and I’m sure others don’t either, please feel free to run ol man winter over anytime now. I will come to your defense if anyone feels the urge to throw you in jail. But got a feeling at this point any having to deal with said fellow will feel nonethe worse at his loss
Got a feeling it’s going to be a REO Speedwagon kind of day tomorrow...Back on the Road Again while I’m Ridin The Storm Out
Alright fellow groupies - I am getting in the car this afternoon to be finally, FINALLY returning to our beloved lodge this weekend (Sunday evening to be exact after a 1 night stay at BCV). I bought CCV when it went on sale to new members last April (banked the points) and am really looking forward to checking out our home again. Don't be surprised if you see me over at VWL in a chair by the fireplace either - I love how it can be peaceful over there. And I'll see if I can find out just what the hell they were thinking when they re-imagined the pool.
I’m off this week before starting my new job on Monday. Leaving my company last Friday was harder than I had anticipated...scratch that..leaving some very dear friends and many great coworkers was the difficult part.....I am quite ready for a new adventure.
And now I'm about to head to DL! I feel like a total noob too. No clue what I'm doing once I get there. No touring plan. I guess I'll wing it.
View attachment 311142 View attachment 311139 View attachment 311140 View attachment 311141 Taking a little walk down memory lane this morning. The very first trip for my kids we stayed at the lodge. That was 10 years ago. Although we have been back many times since, this is our first trip returning to WLV. Our first trip we were sprinkled with some serious pixie dust and were honored to be a flag family. We got to meet and talk to Stan Some pictures from that first trip ...
Hi groupie friends! Not sure where the time has gone since I got back earlier this month. I had the best intentions to post some pictures, but then it kept snowing & we kept losing power. DS19 was home for spring break. This is my busy season, etc, etc. And now I'm about to head to DL! I feel like a total noob too. No clue what I'm doing once I get there. No touring plan. I guess I'll wing it. The only things I know I'll be doing for sure are early entry on Tue. morning (my one full day) & I have 2 dining reservations. Napa Rose for my birthday & Cafe Orleans because I must have the monte cristo sandwich. Must. Did I mention must? I do plan to purchase Max Pass & from what I know of DL there are lots of single rider lines so I should be fine. Then I'm off to my other happy place on Wed. Jam packed schedule for NZ except for a day or two here & there. It's all good though.
Oh DS17 heard from his other 3 colleges. Yes from all. I do wish now we had given more thought to the state schools he was applying to. He should have applied to more private schools. The state schools are offering nothing except for UMass which he should qualify for the free tuition. We won't know until July but he meets all the criteria so no reason to think he won't get it. CU Boulder we're still waiting on the separate scholarships for out of state students, but I'm not hopeful. Stevens he received a half scholarship award which is great. That's the one school he didn't look at but applied anyway. So off he goes to accepted student day on 4/14 with DH. I have to bow out because I won't be home until probaly 1:00 a.m on the 14th. There is no way I'll have the energy to drive to NJ after traveling for close to 24 hours. Bummed about that, but nothing I can do about it.
That's about it for my news. Hope everyone is doing well. I will try to post some DL pics but no guarantees!
