Where do you sleep when you stay on property?

Buck up, soldier! You're letting the team down!



I would too, but this isn't about me right now.

Pre, post or during party?

Hahaha. Nah, it’s 14 miles down the road, I can go any of the days I don’t work. I put up with enough drunk, amateur tourist who can’t handle their alcohol, no need to put up with it on my days off. lol
I own a van. lol. A/C, TV, internet, snacks. lol. If it wasn’t so hot I would hang out in park but I don’t want to go to work all sweaty without taking a shower.

So you’re saying sometimes…

You live in a van down by the theme park
 

Little premature there Mark, but Thank You Kindly!
That's what I get for not reading carefully. Just remember this message on your actual birthday.

Julie’s exact words!!

Well played, sir. :worship:

The important takeaway here is: I may be getting older, but she is still thanking me.
 
Howdy y’all…! :wave2:
My name is Steve.
My bra size is…..
Hahaaa…!!!!! 🤣😉 Sorry, couldn’t resist…!!! :D
I’m 61 years old and have been married for 35 years. We currently reside northeast of Austin, Texas in the city of Round Rock, Texas, within walking distance of our 2 young granddaughters home.
We have 3 grown children (29, 31 and 32 years old)…2 daughters, with a special needs son in between.
As mentioned above, we also have 2 young granddaughters, ages 2-and-a-half and 5-and-a-half years old. 😉
I was in architecture for 41+ years, but am currently at home full time helping take care of my terminally ill, invalid 88-year-old MIL.
Our last family WDW trip, with granddaughters and all, was last October. Oldest granddaughter turned 5 while we were there, and our DS turned 31 while we were there.
Our next family WDW trip is comin’ up at the end of June/early July, and our youngest granddaughter will turn 3 while we’re there, so we’re gettin’ her in just under the wire for free again, one last time…!!! :D

Anyway, that’s the overview.
Time for a beer…!!!!! 🍺8-):D😉
Wwelcome. We will have to meet up some time, I lived in Round Rock for a while, moved over to Liberty Hill about 5 years ago.

Hey! So do I! Well, more North than Northeast.
Exactly how far north???

LOL, so like 2 days drive? Although in Austin traffic that barely gets you out of downtown.
It’s like central Florida, Orlando is a two hour drive from Orlando. lol.
Someone from Texas in our CM FB group posted how long it takes to drive from one side of Texas to the other vs Florida. The chart said to cross Florida it’s a two hour drive.
Everyone wanted to know what highway they used, it takes two hours to drive six miles on I4. lol.
I’m off till Monday!! If you need me, I’ll be floating around in the pool and napping in the AC. I get weather updates at work, don’t know why I work inside but I get weather updates, just more emails to delete. lol. the heat index was 118. But it was a dry heat, the humidity was low. lol. I walk about a mile from the parking lot in to where I have to be, I had two shirts and long pants on and didn’t even break a sweat. lol. Next week we’ll be ringing ourselves out again. But on the bright side, we don’t have to shovel sunshine!
 
Yeah that's why I time my drives to leave here late at night and arrive in Da World at stupid early in the morning. Or visa versa. We usually drive straight thru. It takes me as long to get from home to Louisiana as it does to get from Louisiana to Orlando.
