You sure you aren't going to swing by and get me on the way?!? It's probably only an 8 hour detour or so. Then we can swing by and pick up too.
See you real soon,

garRy - What time should I be ready???????

So gaRry and DS are driving? And Vicki & DD are flying later? No fair that he gets to be there early!!!

We had a lightning storm about an hour ago, a few drops of rain....lightning hit the top of one of the mountains behind us, and now it's really blazing.
If I hadn't pulled a muscle in my neck taking the last load of clothes out of the dryer, I could turn my head and look out my patio door (right next to my desk) and see the fire. And smoke. There's one big blaze on the far side of the rise, and several small fires on our side. It didn't rain enough to put it out, and of course, fire trucks can't get up there. Will just have to wait and see if it burns itself out, or if they have to bring in helicopters. Not close enough for us to worry about....unless they don't get it under control tomorrow.

Taking a pill and going to bed. At least then I'll sleep. Otherwise, I'd just lay there and stare at the fire. We can see it from our bedroom patio door, too. My biggest fear about living in the desert...even more than the rattlesnakes and scorpions.

Oh well.....here I go. Have a great day tomorrow!

BEAUTIFUL SUNDAY MORNING TO ALL OF THE HOLIDAY CRUISERS!

Good night,
Stacey

Smaller fires are out. Looks like the larger one is going down. I can sleep now.
Is this a T.O.P......or is the doctor having a slow night?

I probably just set you up, Virgil!

 

[justmestace]

Doc...think I can lose 50 pounds in four months? Short of cutting off both arms and both legs??????


AND SHE TAKES ANOTHER T.O.P. AS SHE GOES!!!!



Guess the doc had a patient or two. Sorry!

Wow the alarm was early this morning. DH wanted to get an early start. I had to finish packing last night after we got home from my reuion. It was after 1:30 when the lights finally went out, and the alarm was set for 5 I am by far to old to function on 4.5 hours of sleep. (unless I am at WDW or on DCL) then less is best!!! Maybe I will have to take a little nap before DD gets up. She has to be in a parade today with her friends.

Reunion was a blast. I really got to see a lot of folks I hadn't seen since school. My best friend (from school) is up from Columbus. Hope to see her and her family again later today.

Hope everyone has a GREAT day!!!!!

Good Morning Cruisers!

Sorry to have missed gaRry's sign-off. Hope they have a safe drive down.

To all heading to the world in the next week - have a wonderful time.

To those of us staying - keep talking so we can keep the post where everyone can find it and so we can get to gaRry's 10,000


I hope to have the August newsletter up later today.

 

[Cruisin'goose]

Where is everyone? SLEEPING????

Mary I look forward to seeing the newletter. Wish you could join us at WDW.

If we have 137 posts per week we better get moving. I don't think at this rate we will do to well. Stacey you will have to get yours for the week done before you leave. (Or post lots when you get back. )

Well I had better get moving or I will not be ready to leave on Wed.

Talk more later

Have a great day everyone!!!!

Vicki

 

[paulcrsb]

I hope everyone has a great day!

Hi everyone. Happy Sunday.

We just got back from visiting a sleep away camp on the PA boarder. What a beautiful, awesome camp in the mountains. It is called French Woods in French Woods, NY near Hancock NY.They have everything a child would want and the circus program is so awesome. They fly experts in from all over the world to run this circus program. The trapize I almost got on but chickened out last minute. You had to climb a long ladder all the way up eventhough you are on a harness. I just could not do it. The Theater program is intense they have 5 plays going on at one time and lots of dance studio's, Jewlery making, Magic, 80 computers for the kids to learn on. We made a copper ring. The list goes on and on. Oh and the rock climbing wall has at the top a large rope in the air that you can slide down on with the harness on. They have a heated pool and a huge lake with lots of boats and a trampoline in the water. They even have a stakeboard rink. DD did not want to leave. We told her that this is for next year. I wish I was young again and would be able to enjoy this. I am glad she will have the chance to.

We stayed in a 3 bedroom log cabin. So beautiful in the woods. It was about 1 mile from the camp.

Lisa I had no idea Girl Scouts has a theater camp. This camp is privately owned. Where is the Girl Scouts Theater camp???? I would appreciate it if you could e mail the info or PM me. Thanks.

Well the drive was 3 hours about 160 miles but it the rain it was not to much fun. I am glad we are home.

Everyone that is going to Florida have a wonderful time.

I need to unpack the car and get ready for work in a few hours. Talk to you later. Gail

Good Morning All!

Yes, I WAS still sleeping....remember the time difference, though.
Time difference or not, I did actually sleep until 9:30. Took a pill for the sore neck and really zonked. Neck better...and the fire is out. There aren't any trees on the mountain, it's almost all volcanic rock...so we're lucky, they usually do just burn out.

Guess I'll do some packing today....Monday and Tuesday are going to be busy days...end of the month books again (why does that seem to happen every month?) and payroll....
And the kids have registration Tuesday, and they'll have yet another list of things we have to buy.
I could wait till Wednesday to pack, but if I do...I just know something will come up.

You guys are going to get Virgil in some serious trouble!!!
There is no suite....sorry.

Gail...that doesn't sound like any camp I ever went to!!!!!! Wow.
The one thing I remember about going to camp...(I was a Camp Fire Girl) was how they had everyone bring a can of soup, all different kinds, and dumped them all in a pot together...and expected us to eat it! Yuck. And some bozo always brought Split Pea. Double yuck. No wonder I got sick every time, and my mom had to come get me!

Off I go.....have to find something to do. The DH is outside working, and keeps coming in and looking at me and the kids (all still in PJ's) like we're a bunch of lazy slugs. Oh, the guilt!!

TTYL,
Stacey
