Here is a another place in (of all places) Erie, PA. http://www.splashlagoon.com/new72688/map/

From Albany (sorry can't spell schenechty) 5hr 43 min
From Chicago 6hr 38 min
From Detroit 3 hr 55 min
From Cleveland 1 hr 25 min (Erin hosts )

What?? No time frame and direction for your Chicago friends?

Good morning everyone!

Busy around here. Did all our Christmas cards last night. Now I just need to stuff, seal and stamp and they will be on their way. Have our holiday party at work today as well as a number of meetings, plus some work that needs to get done before I leave. I think it is going to be a long day. Worth it though because this time tomorrow we'll be at the airport waiting for our flight!

Well worth the effort. I hope you have a great trip to WDW.

What time is your flight out tomorrow?

Marla,
Another coincidence between our sons. Mine was ALWAYS on stage crew..did lighting and loved it. I always wished I could see him on stage but also knew he was comfortable where he was. He got hired once after that by an outside agency to do lighting for a performance. I think he just liked wearing the black tshirts that said "crew", LOL.

LOL! Ilene, I just hope my son turns out as nice as yours has. Right now, I can't imagine mine being in law school!

Ok, he left out the Florida folks too!!!

Wow, I missed all the discussion last night. I crashed last night at 9:40pm, I was SO exhausted.

Curt, my humble apologies for NOT leaving us out.

Okay, now that I've had some coffee, let's see. This all started because we were talking about Cedar Point and now we've change the discussion to talk about getting together before Cedar Point -- which I don't believe we've finished talking about Cedar Point but I can multi-task (sometimes).


If we're talking about meeting at a water park sooner than July, I can tell you that the weekend of 2/10 is out for us. We are also in Hilton Head 3/25-3/30 so that won't work for us.

And, much like Curt, I'm a bit leary to plan a long drive during the winter months so even though we'd love to see you all, my feeling is that January, February and early March might not be the best time.

I WANT TO GO TO WDW TOO!

In case you're too busy to get back online today, I'll wish you a safe and fun trip now. I love going this time of the year, the decorations, lights - everything is so prettty. Enjoy your trip!

Hi Jacqui, nice to see you again.



Walker would love to see Tyler. Like Tyler, Walker doesn't understand that Nick and Tyler don't just live here and can't get together all the time. OH & Canada are no farther to him that the trip to school or store or whereever. I know he would love to see them and am glad to hear that your planning on Cedar Point.

As for my taking Cameron and you taking Walker, it's a deal. I don't know your Cameron very well but my Cameron has always been a much easier child than his younger brother.

Same here, Cameron is very content to read, play computer games etc and actually will hang with his younger brother with little complaint. Tyler is more high maintenance and needs to be on the go 24/7. Thankfully it snowed last night so they can play outside and do things. The cold and rain of the past week has really been a bummer--stuck inside and driving the adults crazy!

Winter travel is not exactly my idea of fun but a water park idea may work. It will depend on the drive and the weather conditions. Remember we are further north and the roads are not great most of the time. The weekend of March 2-4 is out as we have to go to a wedding in Montreal and that drive is really treacherous in winter and the kids have "March break" from March 12-16--I think the US kids get a week in April??? as Spring Break?

I will watch and see what comes of this.

Jacqui

Have a GREAT time at WDW, Mary!! And, if I can swing it, we might see you either at the Member Mixer or on Sunday. We'll contact you if we can make it over!!!

Hello everyone from OKW! Having a great time with family and they are starting to get ready to leave. It's been a great time with my brothers and sisters and we are all thinking about doing this again either next Dec or every other year. I do have to save some time for Lil' Christopher to come and see WDW!

Yesterday we went over to AK and saw the Finding Nemo show - wow! And the Osbourne Lights are have a different twist too - very sweet! Having fun here and never want to go home! Going over to MVMCP on Thursday after the Member Mixer - hope the weather holds out!

See ya soon Mary and Mark - the weather is a bit cooler than last year but great for spending time in the parks.

Oh, and I have to post this pic of when Christopher met Santa.

 

[alikat99]

Oh Mary - that is just the sweetest pic of Christopher!!!

It may be ify weather during these months but it is cheaper. I think most of us would like to save some money. So,we can still go to Cedar Point in July. We even have other trips in there too.The way it's going, I'm going to be gone every month!

Mary love the picture of CJ. He looks so happy! Maybe he's Santa's little Elf.

I don't see anything wrong with going away every month!

I know the weather is crazy that time of year, I have to drive through Buffalo the snow capital of the world! But I don't have a problem traveling in the winter. I mean driving through blinding snowstorms isn't something I like to do, but to meet up with you guys--I'll do it!

I'm up for driving in the winter in snow. I'm not driving on ice! Snow is alot nicer ,out of the two. I do draw the line on driving if I can't see. I think if we do book this during the winter. Pay a little more up front for the cancel protection. That way we could move it to another time frame.

We're game as long as we can cancel.

Being we have the 6 hour 38 minute commute, it just might take us a while longer. Please tell me we don't have to drive through any mountains! Mountains are bad enough in perfect weather conditions, I'm not sure Gary & I would survive driving through them in the winter --- by that I mean our marriage.

Who else is game?
