Just received member handbook for small contract I purchased and closed last week. No member numbers listed yet, Wisconsin is one of those states that give you 5 days to back out, so have to sign that "yes I do really want this" paper. Then I suppose I will get any account numbers. I have also purchased 80 more HHI and 100 BCV, just waiting to close on them. Have a call into my guide to get on a list for 55 more BCV points. At first I wanted just a small contract to get started and pay cash as I added on but we had a death in the family of my step-grandfather. This wonderful man left me enough that I am now able to get the points we needed. But are there ever enough? 
I'm sure you'll be thinking of that nice man during every trip home you make.
I've never been there, but the pictures that people have posted are so lovely, we can't wait to try it ourselves.
