Yummy...I've had many a bottle of Mission Hill. I've never been to the winery myself, but my mom and sister toured it a few years ago. It is beautiful, very expansive, very manicured. They obviously have spent a lot of money to do it up properly and invest a lot in the quality.

Do you know where they get their money from??? They also own Mike's Hard Lemonade...it's the cash cow that lets them enjoy the winemaking!

Don't know how you would get it delivered down south, but I'll trade you for any wines from Old Mission Peninsula or Leelanau Peninsula in Northern Michigan. It gets super expensive when we try to bring back 20+ bottles every year we go over for our mother-daughter vacation...our excise taxes pretty much double the price of every bottle!!!

*woof* *woof*

See? Can teach a not-so-old dog some new tricks!

heard of them but had never tried any of their wine.. will def'ly check this out...

if ever you go to a wine store... if they have a website I can check into would be a big help.... and yes I am up for the trade.. which one do you recommend/like so I can check it here in Delaware if they carry it...

Ohhhhhhhhh Tracey!!!!

Good morning!!

sand what is cooking... I have been on hold now for 25 minutes... checking for availability for December needs to get this through....

One week and I'm there!! yay!

I am so jealous!!!

 

[Jenroc]

I'd rather they go into the 1st full week of June and start the week before Labor Day (like it was when I was a kid). Then I could take advantage of some Free Dining (for a short bit).

I think the kids should get shorter summer holidays and an extra week at Christmas and maybe at March Break. A lot of the children I deal with have no imaginations and would be happier blowing up things on a TV screen then being outside, enjoying nature and using their imagination. I understand it is a different time now but it is sad that our kids are missing out on the simpler things like playing tag, hide n' seek, hiking, or just playing !!!! (There's my rant for the day ! )

Isn't it remarkable how some of us plan our lives around what is going on in the parks ??!!

 

[Jenroc]

Nope, not giving up my free health care, and I'd melt in the Florida heat!!!

Let's just be Snowbirds then -- that would be nice. But I would have to see snow for Christmas. HEY ... I'll just go to Blizzard Beach !!!! Problem solved !!


OH REBECCA -- we have a civic holiday this coming Monday. Not too sure what is for but I'll enjoy the day off with pay anyways !!!

 

[ANTSS2001]

December is sold out for all DVC resorts!

Hey ya! DBF just showed up about an hour ago. We are both camped out at my dining room table since we both have meetings we have to call into soon.

Eesh on the wait! December is crazy...beautiful...but crazy. At least it is in DL

Hey you can always go to MGM and walk down Main Street In NY. It snows there every night leading up to Chirstmas and the light are beyond belief.

And then I can go to all the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parties because it snows on Main Street there too !!!! YIPPEE !!!!! One problem solved -- now how do I get all those people I didn't invite to "my" house to pick up after themselves ????

Ohhhhhhhhh Tracey!!!!

Here is Mission Hill's website www.missionhillwinery.com/ but again, don't know how we'd do the trade...both sides of the border are very picky about shipping alcohol. I wouldn't even know where to start! But hey, we'll arrange some kind of trade on the 2009 trip!

I'd have to pack up my whole "grand" family (mom, dad, sisters, brother-in-law, kids, etc) in order to make that move work...tried a similar move solo after university out to BC and had to come back after a year and a half because I couldn't get them all to move out there!

But yes, it's on the agenda to make a trip one year in early Dec to see the xmas stuff, just not when there's crowds...hmmm, maybe 2010?

No myspace, but anyone on facebook??

Hi all!!!!

got that too Tracey

hello.. just woke up about an hour ago... and now waiting for my cookies to ding!!! Since I am coming in late to work.. I grab some of my frozen cookie dough "crazy for nuts" mixed nuts in chocolate dough and "just peachy" cookies.. vanilla cookies with dehydrated peaches... to bring to one of my fave housekeeping... he is about to retire in 12 months and today we start our count down together!!! well he doesnt know it yet...

this is the same guy.. last March when I 1st met himmm told me his bday was June but that's all he said he was telling me.. he will never tell me when...

so everyday I ask him.. he said "J Square (that's what he calls me J Square!!! to cute ) you can ask but that's all you are getting June..

so June came... and as soon as saw him I belted out "happy bday song in the middle of the floor and he started laughing... He said.. sorry not today... at lunch saw him again and sang again.. and again... and again.. well every single day and every time I see him I sang.. doesnt matter who was/were around.. finally he pulls me aside and said.. Fine.. Fine FIne.. youn wint my bday is June 8th... (that was june 5 when he told me) now will you stop singing... everyday the folks at housekeeping are greeting me a happy bday

on his bday I did not make any fuss... like I forgot... he greeted me that day.. and I just gave him a nod... but at lunch time... I drove as fast as I can ( I only leave 3.6 miles away) grab the cake and the gift that I bake and bought for him and when he came around to cleaning our floors... I have it in the middle of the hallway... lights off .. candle on and gift..!!! I dont think I got hug as tight as he did.. I still walk sideways to this day!!!

awesome story Timmy!!!

[Care]

No myspace, but anyone on facebook??

I'm on facebook, or as I call it "crack-book" since it gets a bit addictive at times...

I can't believe the summer is over. Back to school I go next week!

Wow... That is early. I'm so used to the Canadian school year where the kids go off to school after the first Monday of September (Labour Day). Of course, I remember going to kindergarten in Asia where we were in school most of the year. We were learning multiplication tables in grade 1, and students were ranked by percentile for each course, regardless of what grade they were in.

My dad has offered to pay for a subscription to eharmony for me

I'll trade you for your dad. You can have my mom instead. She thinks I'm a hopeless case, and that no one would want me Way to go, positive reinforcement

Tracey... Jen2... and Care... do you know what I want most from Canada????

This!!!!

Hmm... I'll see what I can do for ya, Timmy. All alcohol must be checked in, so I'm not sure the bottle would survive the trip down to Orlando in Sept. Let me think through the logistics of it.

MMMMM ICEWINE!! make mine Inniskillen though

Same here, Sha. I do like the Inniskillin ice wines. Plus, the winery isn't too far from home - just an hour's drive away. There are so many excellent wineries in the area, actually. Okay, let me see if I can figure out how to bring down a couple bottles of ice wine - one for you, and one for Timmy. Hmm...

Brought 3 bottle of wine from Germany. I had them packed in plastic and then wrapped in clothes in my checked bag. No problems.

if that helps

 

[rebecca06261]

Can someone please explain to me how facebook works? I have it, have no clue how to use it!

I don't think you're hopeless...

One odd factoid about me... I always LOVED being single. I never understood why people wanted to marry young... or in some cases - at all. I harped on the negative relationships I saw around me blah blah blah. Then one day it hit me.. like a ton of bricks.. it wasn't about having kids, or having the wedding of your dreams... or even having a beautiful diamond to show off to your girl friends. Unfortunately, I think it dawned on me a little too late. Most men I've met think there's a problem if you've never been married at 32 and don't have 3 different kids by 3 different daddys

Of course, I don't have an interest in those types either
