May 12, 2007 -- Taking the Magic to the Mediterranean -- 14 day Repo Cruise!

[milestogo]

I'm obssessed with weather, Thanks for the report. Finally getting some sun in Southern CA. Had two short, but fun mornings at DL and CA ADV. CA was empty this morning so we went on the new fun Monsters ride 4 times in a row. Lots of schools coming for the end of the year making it more and more crowded as the day went on. Got stuck on the Ferris Wheel for 10 min., DD thought it was a riot!

OK, I've been Dole Whipped! It was delicious. Makes me wonder what other food and drink items I walk right past never paying attention.

Milestogo... glad you had your Dole Whip... YUMMY

Seaulater... Great Hong Kong pictures...

I'm back home from my in-out same day. Thanks for the thoughts. All went well. Will get results in a couple of weeks! WHEW! Glad that's over.

Debbie, Will you come to Wyoming to do a Garage Sale for us.

I realized this afternoon that a year from now we will be off the ship. So sad! I envy those of you doing back to back! Wow! What a time you will have spending 25 days on board!

Hope all are having a great weekend. We drove to Cheyenne to get an idea of the real estate market and various neighborhoods. I have decided to take the transfer in positions, so we will be leaving the Tetons for the plains of Cheyenne. Our house will be listed June 15. I hope it sells quickly, will make the move easier. I will report in Cheyenne sometime mid July, and Lynn will stay in Jackson till this first week of October. The trick will be to pack up all the stuff accumulated over 28 years, (like WDW park guides from the 1990’s) so as to get the house ready to show/sell. This will be an adventure in house selling and moving for sure. One of the big pluses we are looking forward to is the cheaper air fare from Denver to Florida. So, no more one year till retirement, it will be five more, but heck who can afford health insurance anyway. Another plus will be more $$ in pension and in the 457 plan. Plus the skills I will learn, will give me a great base for a consulting job in retirement. I guess I gotta justify this decision; Lynn is jazzed as she can get a part time job and not have to work graves. Besides there is this Tiki Bar set up for sale in Sam’s Club, will have to score that puppy and then “The Tiki Bar is OPEN!!!!!”. Actually this move is just to consolidate the DIS folks in Wyoming to one city. LOL

Scott + Lynn!

WOW! Congratulations on the many upcoming changes in your lives!!! I'm sure you will meet them all head on and have fun doing it!

Oh I am glad to hear you took that job. I could do your garage sale... but I just can imagine a garage sale in the middle of nowhere being successful

As long as you can still get your time off for your planned trips 5 years will fly by.

Congratulations!
Debbie

Scott Congrats on your upcoming "change in plans". It sounds like an exciting opportunity for you.

Milestogo: congrats on being DoleWhipped! I have never had a Mickey Bar after all of these years at DL. Do they have them at DL? I fully intended on having one our cruise last summer, but somehow it never happened. It is a goal for May repo -- Have a Mickey bar! Somewhere in those two weeks, I have got to fit that in!

Let's have one this summer at DL? When I was younger my girlfriends and I always had to have a frozen banana. The Mickey bars are spectacular! Rich, but don't worry you'll walk it off.

Scott & Lynn, Congrats on the big decision! Try ebay for your garage sale.

welcome, welcome, welcome Mom Rules! What part of Canada are you from?

Yes! Greetings!!! I'll echo the question....where in Canada from? We are currently in Rochester, NY so we get into Ontario and Quebec a bit to visit Toronto, Montreal, etc.....and I was born in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and graduated from High School in northern Maine....so I'm very familiar with the northern regions!!

Welcome aboard....it'll be nice to have some more folks from the frozen north!
