well, we have a freeze warning here in Maine tonight, so I'm assuming under 32 degrees!!! Ok, why isn't there a winter smiley???

I live in MA and it is freezing here. The only good part about this weather is that I can wear my Disney sweatshirts. That's all I'm happy about.

Oh we have that here too but I refuse to acknowledge it LOL. According to the weather channel hourly forecast only says 36

OKay, I really need another hobby! I am still 10 months away from my next August trip and I have already picked out the adr's that I cannot BOOK until February!

Oh and BTW Sarah, can you add my resort to the list.....

POR 8/18-8/29. I still may change resorts (thinking about upgrading to deluxe), but I haven't decided yet. I may stay at POR and use the extra money on something else like shopping! After all this is a girl's only trip.

Added!!

Yes! I bought a few this year and had been looking at them longingly LOL

Oooh, i am enjoying this thread. We are staying in the Grand Floridian from 8/1 to 8/14 and then going onto Hard Rock Hotel for the last week but i'm sure the first two weeks will be my most enjoyable, it's Disney after all ;D

I feel so bad, out here in California, we complain we're cold when it's in the low 60's It's 63 right now and I'm bundled up under the covers.

If only a weekend down were that easy for me, 9 hour flight and all. But yeah, it looks out of this world!

Thank you so much! My husband and I will be staying at the Wilderness Lodge! It will be both of our first times staying there we are so excited! How about your family?

 

[poohlover4life]

I LOVE THIS!!!!!

to the boards and welcome to our little (but growing!) August group! What are your dates and I can add you to our resort list!



What a busy month for me. I thought once the kids went back to school that I would have a little more time on my hands and boy was I wrong! My son joined our fire hall as an Explorer and they have all kinds of trainings and meetings, my own membership responsibilities have been jam packed and my daughter is starting to learn to drive!

On top of it all it seems like the temps here went from HOT to Frigid in the span of a week. We have freeze warnings tonight and I am refusing to turn on my furnace yet!!! Just gonna add blankets for now lol. With such a mild winter last year I have this horrible feeling that we're going to get slammed with snow this year.

Thank goodness I have a trip to look forward to next year! 320 days to go

Thank you so much for such a wonderful and warm welcome!! I love your thread! My husband and I will be staying at the Wilderness Lodge for 10 wonderful days! Aug. 15 will be our first day. Thank you so much for adding us to your list

Nine hours IS a little far! We will be there before we know it though!! The new pics I see every day are driving me crazy wanting to see it!!!

[disneyworldfamily]

So. Does anyone have any thoughts on when we will start seeing pins/offers for August 2013?

This year was our very first trip and we were able to get free dining. That offer came out in March or April I think.

Thoughts?

I'm thinking we will see free dining come out around the same time. I am hoping it starts by August 24th because that is our first day there
