Patty we still have our fingers crossed for you and family to be able to go with us. If not maybe next year. Big hugs to you all from TN. Mike

 

[papa]

Ave hope that you and Mary are having a wonderful time together on this memorial day. Enjoy the oysters and other treats along with each others company. Mike

 

[papa]

Hope that everyone had a nice memorial day and has a safe return trip back home. Katie went home today and she is doing fine. She has her mom and dad whipped though. Funny how a 4 and a half pound baby can turn grown adults into blubbering masses of jello. They are dancing to her tune

OK who took the 24 hours out of this weekend without telling me?
I finally got everything done I wanted to and was ready to relax when POOF it's time to go back to work. Oh well, must be getting old. Got all of the flowers and vegetable plants in .... silk plants are starting to look better and better!!!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend ... check back later

 

[papa]

[Viking]

Hi Mike,

Just checking in to say "Hi" and let you know we didn't get washed away yesterday. Almost needed to start building the ARK and gather up the animals! Had about 3 inches of rain in an hour at one point and some of the roads in one area were washed out due to the flash floods. The litle wooden bridge to our house is still OK but the water is awful close to the top and that never happens. The lake across from our house is actually where the Lehigh River starts at. Poor AshLee dosen't like to get her paws wet and kept refusing to go potty until she was reallllllllly full of it then it it was out ..... and right back in, then "OK where is my towel!"

Check back later.....

HI EVERYONE. We are having a wonderful time here in Panama City Beach Florida. DH and DS went on a 3 day canoe/camping trip while DD and I hit the beach with DTS (Disney Twin Sister) and her family. We went to Shell Island (accessable only by boat) and snorkeled and relaxed on the beach. Then we drove the boat to "The Pass" and swam around with the dolphins! I love doing this! These are wild dolphins who swim up to your boat to say hello! We jumped in with them and they swam around us for about 15 min!
Eric and Anja...come visit us in Charleston on your way to the Port! Charleston is a wonderful city with LOTS to see and do. With any luck we will also be joining you and Mike and Kathy for the 10/03 cruise!

Cathy...glad you guys are OK. Send the rain south...WE NEED IT!

WELCOME to George and Barbara!So glad to have you join our happy bunch! We used to follow NFL but DH began watching NASCAR a few years ago....so now that is how we spend our Sunday afternoons!!!We still love to see a good game!

Mike and Kathy...glad DGD is home! Sorry about your uncle

Patty....still hoping you can join us! Another cruiser we met last year (Cammie) is also waiting for TA rates. Don't give up! Still 4 months to go!

Elain and Patty....my sister was upgraded from the CBR to the Contemporary a few years ago. They stayed in one of the "Wings" and had a wonderful time. THEY LOVED being in a monorail resort. I am sure you will enjoy it too!

We made reservations for the night we get BACK to PC after the cruise at the Radisson so we can stay one more night to hopefully see the Shuttle launch.If the lauch is too late in the day, or if it is delayed we will cancel our ressies and head home.

I will update the cruise list when we get back to Charleston in a few days.

 

[papa]

Mary I am so happy that you and your family are having such a wonderful time. Good that you didn't get washed away Cathy either.

Another day closer to our cruise and another day closer to the Cruisetoberfest II with Eric and Anja in 03.

Have a good day all. Mike

Welcome George & Barbara --- Nice to see some more EAGLE fans will be on board! You may want to try the ESPN club right on the ship to see the game. That is if they can get it on their dish. If not, keep your fingers crossed that it is on one of the networks.
We'll be in the same boat looking for the Penn State Game.

Played with the logo last night and now I'm going to try to put one on a white baseball hat I picked up. Keep your fingers crossed. I'll let you know if it passes my DH's inspection. Next I'm going to do up some copies for the rest of the DIS bunch and mail them out.

Mary ... when you get home, e-mail me the latest list. I'm really jealous over your beach and dolphin time. Our lakes are nice but they sure aren't those georgous waters in FL.

MIKE & KATHY ... How is Katie? How many "Mickey M" outfits have you bought her? How's Stacey feeling - her B/P regulated now? Was Eric able to get some time off to help her out? Could I ask anymore ?'s ...... sorry, I'm just curious. She is just toooooo cute in those pictures.

FOR THE REST OF THE DIS BUNCH .... have you been reading any of the Western Trip Reports? Some of them are really nice, and the pictures. Making me so antsy to go on this cruise.

Anja & Eric .... Nice to hear from you guys. So now I guess we'll have to see if we can go again in October 03. I know Eric's weak point is on the beach at Castaway Cay in his swim tube!!!!!! That was too funny. Can still remember the cab ride to Orient Beach .... "Hey is this really a road, or are you just doing your own thing!" And then there was the beach and snorkelking at Trunk Bay. I WANT TO GO BACK NOW!!!!!!!

Oh Well Back to work............

 

[Viking]

Art & Cathy: Great to hear from you. I was sure that you would still remember "dipping the Kraut" as one of your greatest experiences
We would love to meet you again and cruise the other part of the Caribbean with you.
Today we planted the seed of desire for a Disney cruise in the minds and hearts of two of our friends here in Germany. The only problem is, that they also have dog and don't know where to board it for the time of the vacation. But I'm sure that we will find a solution. And then it's four of us

 

[Viking]

Testing my timer

 

[Viking]

Michael & Lauren

 

[papa]

Welcome aboard Lauren and crew.
Haven't bought Katie any mickey mouse outfits yet. Kathy and I baby sat last night so that Stacey and Eric could go to school and get their paperwork in order for summer sesmester. Mike

PS Cathy I will give you a call this evening.

 

[VondaP]

Looks like my family will be joining you all. It will be me, Dh and dd's 10 & 8. For those who may remember, I missed our March cruise do to a terrible reaction to a medication I was given.

We are thrilled to be able to reschedule. Looks like it will be a full ship!

Vonda

 

[GoofyDisney]

Glad to see you have rescheduled!

 

[papa]
