10/24/2009 - Bash on the Boat (I'm with BOB) - Thread #3

[JLDSMD]

Hey Darkside BOBers: what are you all thinking of doing in Puerto Vallarta?

I was looking at the beach or hotel break, but for the cost, it seems like it would be cheaper just getting a room at an all-inclusive for the day.

My hold back is if the ship can't get there. I may book it online once we're on the ship and I know we will get there fine. Last EB Repo they were out running a hurricane and skipped Cabo. Guess the seas were rough too - 25'-30' waves.

What quadran (sp?) of the state are you in Mike? NE, SE, SW, NW?


We live about 23 miles due west of Milwaukee and the Lake. It makes a huge difference. We're on the other side of the state divide (funny that it is located about 12 miles from the lake in the East and about 200 miles from the Mississippi River to the west). Nevertheless, we usually get better weather out here (10-15 degrees warmer in the summer), but in winter it is colder. But the best saving grace is when lake effect snow happens - like this morning.

We are out here with clear skies and the sun is real bright. However, near the lake, they are getting hit with lake effect snow. Up to 4" in a short period of time. The airport in MKE was closed for 2 hours this morning because of it. You wouldn't even know looking out my window what a difference there is 20+ miles away.

We're in NE Ohio... Cassie is SW Ohio, just north of Cincinnati. She is getting pounded right now.

Wow. I haven't watched the weather, but there must be a line right about there, huh?

I did catch a snippit (sp?) while walking past the TV that said something about Cincy and Louisville.

Do you get any lake effect up in your area Robin?

O.K. Darkside BOBers (DBOB's),

Whatcha planning for Cabo? I see there are private villas for up to 12. What do you think one of those would run us. Needless to say, the price is NOT on the DCL website.

We've never been to Cabo so we'll probably do some type of city tour and then the beach.

Hi Lori--sorry to hear about your co-workers stuck in the Dayton Airport. Now, if it was in the Daytona Airport, that might not be so bad.

Totally agree.

 

[goofyfreak]

Since we will not be around tomorrow...

Happy Anniversary Lori & Scott

Thank you.

This one is for all you BOBers that have stayed near Disneyland.

I'm looking for a decent NON-Disney hotel near Disneyland. I don't want the HoJo, so don't mention that one.

There are so many in that area, it is crazy looking at them all. I'm waiting to see if Paradise Pier goes on sale, but want an alternate. We got it once over a weekend in July 2 years ago for $135/night. I'll have to check Expedia in June for that one.

 

[goofyfreak]

thats near cassie. she said they have about 10 inches of snow with about 5 more coming.
and its all headed our way.
may end up with 18" total.

I need to call them and ask them if they got out yet. I kinda doubt it.

When going onto DST, I always go to the Saturday night service. Then you don't have to bust yourself to get up on Sunday morning.

If your church has Saturday night, and you're doing somewhat o.k., I'd look into going then. You may have a little energy by late afternoon. Maybe take a nap mid-afternoon.

Hope you get better soon Andy.

Yeah, we have a 6:30pm Saturday service, but this bad boy isn't leaving the house today, feels like someone is pounding on my chest with a hammer. Whatever Hazel gave me is knocking me for a loop and a half. I'm getting ready to head back to bed in a few minutes.

Sorry, I had to laugh at this excursion in Cabo:

B.O.B Underwater Adventure​

Hope this doesn'y mean you can book our '09 cruise and the ship will sink.

I think you girls can relate...

I made a hair appt. The earliest I could get in was Mar. 29. Yesterday the hairdresser called and said she had a cancellation this morning at 9. Never pass on an earlier appt. Right Girls?
Boy did I jump on that. It only a few miles down the road.

So I recruited Mike to go with me. You never know, I might need him to push the car.

On the way home, I almost kelled Mike.

We stopped at the Wendy's drive thru for some lunch. The person in front of us got stuck...so I told Mike, "Why don't you jump out and give her a little push?" That was a mistake.. She wasn't budging, so 2 employees came out and helped get her out.

When Mike got back in the car, he didn't look very good and was very winded. I forgot that since he's been using his pacemaker more, he has trouble doing that kind of thing.

OMG!! I thought I killed him. He was ok after a few minutes...but he didn't look very good.

Better watch what that wife of yours is giving you. I think she is drugging you and the beating you up while you're out of it.

Do you get any lake effect up in your area Robin?

Yes, pretty frequently...

The snow we're getting now isn't Lake effect. It's the storm coming from the SW.

We'll probably get lake effect after this one goes through.

Poor guy. Hope he takes it easy the rest of the day.

I'll be surprised if they did. I just talked to Cassie and she said visibility isn't very good. And it's very windy.

Poor guy is right. I think he believes I'm trying to kill him.

Man, you're trying to off the Dawg, Hazel is trying to off Andy. I better not let Suz cook for me tonight as well as sleep with one eye open.

Happy Anniversary Lori & Scott

Thank you.

 

[goofyfreak]

Poor guy is right. I think he believes I'm trying to kill him.

I'm sure he doesn't think that at all. (Let's look at the facts........get him on the bad icy roads....no accident..............get that lady in front of us to "act" like she's stuck and he will get out and push.......maybe that will push him over the edge.......not looking good for you Robin.
