May 16, 2004 / 4 Day Wonder

[Scott H]

Good to hear that we are no the only ones packing early due to work. Hopefully I will get home today and have tomorrow to start to get stuff together.

Making my list and checking it twice. Packing once, forgetting what was packed, unpaking ... and so the cycle goes. The good thing is if we forget anything we can pick it up while in ATL with my sisters family.

Happy Friday
Departure day
Just wanted to say good luck, beautiful weather, and happy landings to the next departing vacationers...and see my counter one last time... See ya....

Have a great trip Lynda AND Cash.
See you onboard.

 

[Annae]

See ya there Lynda - don't worry about Palo, I've got you covered!

 

[gmech6145]

Hi Anna. Look at that counter..
Are you guys ready? I still need last minute stuff.

 

[Annae]

Matt, Kyle and I are coughing up lungs, and your brother has the stomach virus now (two weeks after we had it). Hopefully all the sickness will be gone by the time we go. I cheated on my diet today. The boss brought in mini danish....I couldn't resist! no will power. As for getting stuff for the trip, I bought the boys polo shirts yesterday and Mike got one too. I am heading back to the outlet at lunch today, the Osh-Kosh outlet had shorts for the boys at 70% off. Plus they always give me an additional 10% off because I am buying for twins. Can't be 80% off. Still need lots of stuff don't know if we'll have it all by the time we go. We'll see

 

[gmech6145]

Hope you all do feel better. Dont need a sick vacation. I just need to get the toiletries and batteries, maybe a couple more shirts. I have a bad habit of buying tees and having them shrink on me after one use. I need some shoes for my khakis, also.

 

[Annae]

Mike needs new t's too. I told him that we'll get him some surfer T's tomorrow at the block party. B & B and the Surf Store will have big sales in the morning

 

[gmech6145]

Oh yeh, the block party is tomorrow. Bummer, I have to work. Supposed to be nice out, too.

 

[Annae]

I have to work until noon - I was already told by the shift manager at work that they want me to stay late. I always do every Saturday but not this week! I'm leaving at noon. Can you remind Mom and Dad to bring their scale with them tomorrow when they come down? Just curious if I lost any more weight. Mom emailed me today and said that she doesn't know what she will do if Aunt Dee dies right before we leave!

 

[gmech6145]

I will remind them. I dont know what will happen either. Hopefully it all works out.

 

[Scott H]

Lynda and Cash have a great trip and see ya there.

 

[scottie]

Farewell Lynda & Cash- enjoy your time before we all arrive and take over FL

"Farewell Lynda & Cash- enjoy your time before we all arrive and take over FL "

Scottie, you make it sound like a crusade... actually that works for me. The hoards from the frozen north decend, searching for warmth and sun.. An epic for sure.

 

[scottie]

...A crusade it is....

Hope everyone’s weekend is going well. We had a garage sale today to clear out some junk and make some extra $$ for vacation. It went well and the rain held off until tonight. We are going to start packing early next week. I just checked the Delta site and it shows our plane down as full, however it still allows people to buy seats online. I guess that means we run the chance of getting bumped on the way down if the oversell, however I am not very sure we want to miss out on any vacation time so we may not offer up our seats up.

 

[Scott H]

Never Bump on the way to vacation, Always bump on the return. Call work with a lame excuse about being stuck in an airport.

 

[Scott H]

Well we are almost packed, dive gear ready, dive lights check, UW camera ready, cruise clothes packed, documents ready, etc and etc. should have it all together, so we think. I know we will forget something, no problems we have duct tape to either fix or make.

We weighed the bags and they are all under the 50 lbs. for the domestic leg. This is a good thing to do so as to avoid those extra charges at airport check in.

Time to walk the dogs and teach a class and dream of a warmer climate.

Gee, Scott, I think I know where my suitcase is.....most of the laundry is done.....that's about it.........

;-) Kelli

 

[scottie]

I am just amazed at how close our trip really is now! I just finished writing my initial list of things I need to do/buy before leaving!

 

[Scott H]

This past weekend was our last chance to pack as the calander looks really full for Lynn and I till we leave. I know it is nuts to be packed about two weeks ahead of time. Scottie also we have our list ready to check off.
