Well done!
 

Looks like there will be 5 or more of us in October.

Morning guys

Morning David.

Page One Updated :thumbsup2
!

Thanks.

Lol that's how I felt, wanted to stop after 13 sec. Thank you for the reviews BoG will prob be a must but haven't yet figured out which park other

You can use a FP+ there for lunch, or a TS for dinner. We had the dinner. The dinner TS also had a photo with beast which you can put on photopass or whatever it is called these days.

Right now I'm thinking we will prob do Expo and MK and BoG on friday and the 5k, HS and the 10 miler on Saturday and may switch and do AK and EPCOT in Jan.
 
I don't know if you watch Survivor but Marlin President Dave Samson was on this year on the "Brain Tribe." His first move was to get rid of the team's strongest player. He was voted off the island the next week. Wish both the owner and front office would be voted off our island.

Yeah The "Brain" tribe didn't really live up to expectations. I laughed when they started to get rid of the stronger players and keep the.... how do I say crazy people.
 
Good morning guys! Back to reality I guess. Glad we have July trip on the horizon. Good luck to everyone's NCAA teams today.
 
UL survived yesterday. Really good game between UK and Wichita St. I knew threw were #1 seed, but I didn't think they were that good. My bracket is shot, but I still have a chance to get the Final Four correct. I've been enjoying the Barkley commercials as well.

Oldest dd did well at her Spring Dance Performance. Granted, she had just a bit part in large group, but still had fun. Youngest dd had soccer this weekend. I am not coaching this year, and her team lost both games. She played well today, despite her own team member attempting to steal the ball from her on a goal scoring opportunity.

Doing the 5K and 10 miler in the same weekend? If you add all the distances I have run in the past decade, it wouldn't add up to a 5K. :lmao:

Glad you made it back safely. Thanks for the pictures.
 
Hey guys. Been planning our trip next February, (my youngest sibling is getting married in wdw, so there's a need to plan quite a bit earlier than normal), and all of a sudden I'm getting the bug to do a quick trip sooner than that... Here's to hoping I find some cheap airfare...;)

Norm, sit down before reading this..... Sitting down? Good! The 5K and 10miler are on the same day. Didn't want you to pass out while standing lol. The 5k will be with DD so it'll be mainly walking (no diff then walking around the parks) with a light jog from time to time. It'll be a good warm up for the 10 miler.

DD and I are doing a Glow Run 5K in Chattanooga in 2 weeks, she's so excited,her whole outfit pretty much glows or blinks.

You could join the early Oct. DisDads mini meet up!
 
Too much to do to try to keep up but a quick scan shows things are Situation Normal around here. Keep up the good work Dads. Prayers to those in need and congratulations to all deserving. I'm keeping the bacon and bourbon for myself. I don't deserve it but I want it. I'm still on the green side of the sod so I won't complain though I wish you Canadians would learn to shut the door.

I never did get my bracket entered because of the phone verification mess. I would have been out of the running by now. I need to quit thinking that SUcks will actually do something to make me happy and start filling it out with logic instead of hope. :sad2:

There's that little trip January 8-11th....I know a few guys that are going...:thumbsup2 ;)
 
Great game between UK & Wichita St. UK has this one. Go Cats.

Wedding in WDW. I thought about a vow renewal there, but I made need to start saving money now. I have two dds who love WDW as much as I do.

Same day? That is crazy talk. :crazy2: I get the 5K walking thing with dd. I can still go all day at the parks and outlast my family. No way I cold last another 10 miles.

Logic? What is that? :confused3
 
If any of you DVC owners have 46 points you'd like to rent in October send me a PM! :thumbsup2
 
Update on the FIL vacation. He had asked for some prices, so I did a price for AoA, POR, FW Cabins, GF, and OKW GV. Haven't heard anything since. So, SIL will get her way through pouting and we'll vacation elsewhere. Or, they will wait to last minute and we won't be doing any ADRs or FP+. Ahhhh, touring WDW in July with no ADRs, FP, or plans. Sounds like a great trip.

I would if I could, but I am all tapped out for the year.

A lot of great games so far and that was one of the top ones. The pitiful SEC is now 6-0 in the tourney with Tenn. playing Mercer in about half an hour. My bracket is done. Three Elite 8's out but all the final 4's are still alive. It looks like Nemie's and my bet will depend on Michigan or Louisville. He has Mich. while I have the Cardinals. Florida's trip to the final 4 got easier with Kansas and Syracuse out.

Would like to help but still am in deficit spending from the west coast trip two years ago. Can't really cry because I have three trips planned for this year. Grateful for those low standard view points at the Boardwalk.
