Melissa, I noticed you GF Dream sig. You may not have to wait too long. My guide told me it is coming in the next 5-6 years. Start saving!!

Villas at the GF would literally be my dream come true !!!!
I'll work 3 jobs to own there if I have to

We also went to Boston however we came home empty handed. If we wanted to buy it is less to go straight through my son better deals being a cast member.

I was just wondering how many RI people have seriously considered relocating to FL and getting a job at Disney? The only thing that stops me is the heat! If I could deal with that then I would go. I could never get used to that oppressive humidity. Our summers make me wilt as is!

Oh, that is my DREAM! And I would like to try and deal with the heat instead of the snow and ice......

 

[Monte Cristo]

Yes, for me it would be April to December in RI and then Jan to April in FL. Someday.

My son tells me that the heat and humidity is so bad right now. I would be a snowbird not sure if I could take the heat all of the time.

I agree...May is about as far into the "hot" season I can handle...but i'll gladly take October untill May!!

Anyone go to the Ancients and Horribles Parade? DH is there now with the kids...I'm home sick. He's sending me pictures tho from his Blackberry. I told him to make sure he gets a shot of men dressed up as women...that's the one constant in that parade every year.

I have times I feel ancient and horrible. Does that count?

Nah, I marched in Quincy...well I take it back the drum corps I play with actually was loaded on a float today..that was different!

Being a former Bristolian, I do feel kind of lost today without the normal hubbub with our parade activities. God, I miss those days. I grew up 1 block from Hope Street where all the concerts take place, and starting almost a month before there was so much activity by the time the 4th came it was at fever pitch. Ahh, the old days...

Well, Happy 4th everyone! Be sure to give pause at the significance of this day, and even with our issues this is still THE greatest nation under Gods rule!

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

Yeah, I'm feeling pretty ancient and horrible myself today.

A drum corps? Really? Cool! It's amazing how nice the weather turned out to be today, particularly after the last...oh, I don't know...forever!

The Ancients and Horribles Parade is OVER...NO men dressed as women , and no Cycling Murrays!

I'd love to see the Bristol Parade someday, but I do like the home town feeling of the Ancients and Horribles Parade. Kind of like going to the Pawsox, instead of the Boston Red Sox. KWIM? And I love the irreverent political statements they make, like the year former Governor Sundlen's love child was big in the news, or some of Patrick's antics (who, BTW, no longer attends ).

And it's become our tradition. Every year I worry the kids will be off doing their own thing (they're 20, 18, 16), so I really hated to miss today.

Be sure to give pause at the significance of this day, and even with our issues this is still THE greatest nation under Gods rule!

Lori, let me know how Cirque is. I thought of going but never got around to making plans. We never saw La Nouba, hopefully the next time we're in Disney we will. BTW, I agree with you about Coach Rick!

[Mahorn]

I'm going to see La Nouba in the 19th of August for the first time and can't wait

I've officially given up on the summer of 2009. Now I'm looking forward to football season which starts in a few weeks. The beginning of football season signals the end of summer for me.

Here's to hopefully moving to Florida someday

Jason - so true! Football season is the end of summer, but seeing as how we have not had a summer, bring on the Pats!

La Nouba is great! I saw it a couple of years ago on my honeymoon

I have never been to any of the other Cirque, so I can't compare them
