Thanks Ed. Here it is, less that 20 hours before we depart for the happy place, about 4:30 in the morning, and for some reason I can't sleep. Like the comercial says...."WE ARE TOO EXCITED TO SLEEP".. I love that little boy's voice.

Since we will not be able to make it to the Fry-Daddy, Ip-Dip "meat" later this year, I was thinking about bringing my Fry-Daddy on this trip...... I just don't know how to hide it from clean lady. Any suggestions for me to tell clean lady that would convince her it IS a good idea????


I know I can justify it once we are at the world, but not sure about before we leave. "It is better to ask for forgiveness, than it is to ask for permission". Don't know who said it but I love it.

Great photo

“NO we don’t stock those kind of things in adult sizes.” That would not have been SO bad had Suzie not been on the other side of the very crowded store. Now everyone in the store is turning to see who in the world would be looking for something like that. With the line forming behind me there was nowhere to hide.

Hey daddy that looks cool. You can put on a white tee shirt and blue jeans and it will be great.

Phew

I can't believe you got ADR for the Castle! I've tried and tried but I suck.

Uh huh

Nothing, your doing nothing wrong,,it all sounds like a good plan,,I dont understand it either! Keep doing it,so the rest of us can get the GOOD ADRs!!

Great reply Carrie

[DARuss]

Wow, you are SO close!

I can't believe you got ADR for the Castle! I've tried and tried but I suck.


Not gud!

It helps going in Jan (not on the marathon or mlk weekend though)

ROOKIE!!! I`ve gotten in 3 years in a row!

This makes 2 years for us.

My strategy must be all wrong. Here's wut I do.

1. Wake up at noon about 22 days out.

2. Play Guitar Hero for 6 hours.

B. Call for ADR reservations

3. Am told it's sold out.

5. Tell Children there is no Santa

4. Drink Whiskey

6. Go to bed.



Wut am I doing wrong??

What to say here. Good try Buzz. Gotta luv it.

Looks like a great schedule, except what are you doing Tuesday and Thursday

I am not planning anything on those days. I love to "wing it." Too many plans would drive me crazy. Not only tring to make them but also tring to follow them. Besides if we find a nice place to enjoy the "sights". I don't want to feel rushed, if you know what I mean? Last year we were clue-less so this time I wanted to get some ressies and let the rest go.

It's a strategy. Maybe not a GOOD strategy, but a strategy nonethelss.

 

[DARuss]

I love you guys.

Love you too Buzz

WOW, I can feel all the love in the air.

What And since when am I JoE

Thanks Jo about the pic. She takes after her "ol man" except she is a cutie. Got lucky with the pirate costume, wuz worried about it. Yea, good one Carrie.

Thank you. If we are able to have internet access, we are planning some LIVE reporting with pix. (fingers crossed). If I can sneak the Fry Daddy we should have some fun and try to "one-up" Buzz. If that is even possible.

I give a thumbs down on the Fry Daddy idea. Its just one more thing to pack, you gotta drive with it full of oil, ewww,,,and when you use it, the whole condo is gonna smell like grease. I dont think your gonna use it anyhow...
You can Thank-me later Clean Girl!

Now, that sounds like a chalenge. Consider it packed. won't drive with it full though. Can't chance that. We are in clean ladies truck. I can pick up a small bottle of oil and hot wings and fry them babies up Sat night when we get in from the PPP. Yea, that's it. All we need now is a football game.

Hello everyone. This year's trip is over. The vacation was great.

Asking for prayers. We went it 2 vehicles and Stacgirl, Big Guy, Lil Man, Lil Bit & her DH wanted to leave early to get home before dark (10-11 hour drive), while DW, DD & myself wanted to stay a little bit longer and have breakfast before we left the happy place. After about 45 minutes into our trip Big Guy called to see how far behind them we were and to tell us that they had been involved in a bad accident on the interstate about 150 miles ahead of us. He said that He and Lil Man were OK but Stacgirl was unreponsive and he was, obviously, very scared. As I was talking to him the EMS was starting to arrive on the scene, Thank You Onastar. A little bit later I talked to him and he told me that Stacgirl was starting to talk to him but was still not all "there" when they loaded her on the ambulance and that he was going to call me as soon as he found out where he was going.

Big Guy called back told us they were going to Gainsville trama center and he and Lil Man were riding to the hospital with the state trooper.

We got to the hospital about 10 minutes before Big Guy and was able to see and talk to Stacgirl just before BG got there.

We were able to see and talk to everyone. They are all safe and without any injuries except a lot of bruising and soreness and were being discharged last night.

Big Guy has family that lives not far from where the accident accured and was able to help with working on a rental car and SG's Mom & brother came down to be with them. We came home late last night to take care of the pets and are now waiting to hear that they are one the rode headed home this morning.

We will have many more details later in the reports.

Sorry about not having a live report from the World. The signal was weak, at best, even with wire and I did not want to pay $10.00 a day for "limited" access.

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

That is so scary, I am glad that everybody is going to be okay.

 

[Disneyolic]

Oh dear. How terrible. You'll all be in my prayers. Thanks for telling us and keep us posted whenever you can.

 

[jcc0621]

For everyone. Keep us updated.

 

[DARuss]

BG called a couple of hours ago and said he and Lil man are doing real good. The others are very sore but OK and they will be headed home shortly.

We will be updating the trip report shortly.

Thanks for the prayers.

 

[theles]

I am sorry to hear about the accident, and you all will continue to be in my prayers.
