***The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread*** Chapter 2!

[loribell]

Okay I have posted some pictures on the WL photo thread. I will try to post more tomorrow. It takes forever to download them on to photobucket or I would have posted more today.
BTW we did search for Lodgeloafer but never saw him.
Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Can someone please post the link to this thread. I don't seem to be able to find it this morning. I will subscribe to it this time, promise!
Never mind. I found it with a little more looking.

Hi all !
Another hot one with 100 degree heat index. We have one more day of excessive heat and humidity. School closings and early dismissals are scrolling across the bottom of the TV screen. Dh is just now putting finishing touched on our AC ! He ran out of something yesterday and the supply house was closed on Sunday ! So when I got home last night at midnight....it was 85. Not good sleeping weather.

DisneyLovinIowan....so sorry about your bad weather. I still have to check out your pictures (will go there next !). Ransom ---I have a friend in Columbus, OH and her mom lives in a burb of Chicago. They also spent several hours in their basement. I heard there was a direct hit of a tornado in her area. Terrifying. Glad you all are safe

Thanks for the good thoughts Rob....hoping to have AC in a couple hours. It'll be good, because the actual temp is supposed to be 99 tommorrow with heat index of 105 again. Sorry you're having tornado warnings and heat too. It's insane this early in the season. It's technically still spring ! I second the motion for your designation as Ranger Stan's apprentice Rob ! As Muushka said, I can give nursing advice---maybe resident WL Mousemedic ?

Granny ~
LOVE the photo ! I want to be there NOW !!!!!

Do we have A/C yet?? (fingers crossed....)

We just couldn't help ourselves! After a basic contract and four (4) add-ons at SSR, we just had to anchor ourselves with a VWL vacation slot!

We enjoyed VWL so much during our last Christmas tour of WDW, that we just had to jump in! (Remember, a happy wife is a happy life! )

We probably just lucked out getting in this fabulous place during the Christmas hoildays with a seven (7) month window last time. We didn't want to pray for another miracle, so we anchored a piece of the wilderness for ourselves with the eleven month starting gate! Hooah!

Hope you all don't mind, but two more for the Hot Tub! We are thrilled to meet you, and hope you all don't mind if we just jump right into the furver found on this thread!

Can we be groupies, too?

Mind?? Are you kidding?? We LIVE for new Groupies!
And you sound like the perfect candidate.

does this mean that you got your add on??

Please, we are all in the Jacuzzi. We have our adult beverages.
We are just waiting for you and the happy Mrs to join us!!

So, I guess this means Welcome Home and grab yourself a Groupie Moosie. I'll bet he will look great on you!

[Dillon]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I've got my moosie Groupie - he's GREAT!

Yes, we have successfully added VWL on to our master contract!
Unfortunately it will not be my wife and I taking the first trip home. Our daughter will be using our newly purchased points for her honeymoon at the most magical place on earth! They joined us this past December. Her intended absolutely fell in love with the lodge and villas so..... He is also a home builder and was in awe of the massive construction and attention to detail.

My wife and I will spend December 2009 at the lodge.

By the way - you have already given my wife a very warm welcome. She's DiznyDi!

 

[mickeymorse]

Welcome to the groupies Dillon. Your siggie looks great. I hope to do the same with my DD for her honeymoon. I do have at least 15 yrs until then

 

[mickeymorse]

Do I hear the A/C running yet?

 

[Muushka]

Good Morning Everyone!
Thought I'd drop in to say Hi
We were fortunate enough to have stayed in the villas last December. It was breathtaking, peaceful and serene all at the same time. I hated the stress of booking day by day at the 7 month mark, so Dear Husband has agreed to an add-on. I have already called our guide and have the ball rolling. So, please, may I join the groupies?

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Look everyone!! Groupie spouses!! Makes me wish my husband would join in on the fun.....I digress.....

That new Moosie looks great on you, Dillon. And on the Mrs. too! So glad to have you aboard .

Say, Dec '09. That wouldn't happen to be the week starting the 6th, would it? Groupie meet!!

My wife would be the one to answer that one. I just go when I'm told to go ...but with ENTHUSIASM!

Well let the Mrs know that there will be an official Groupie meet (well, other than the official one this year ) next Dec 06 09

Welcome Dillon! Our DD and her DH used our points for their honeymoon back in 2004. They stayed at BCV though. He wanted to try out SAB. Be sure to let MS know that your DD is there celebrating her honeymoon. They are likely to get a few "extras" because of it. My congratulations to them both!

 

[eliza61]

Can we be groupies, too?

Aah I love the smell of a fresh groupie in the morning. Welcome to our little funny farm. We are a fun loving group.
I'm still trying to visit the lodge during the holidays, my 2 sons (affectionately known here as Sid, the squid & Rizzo the rat) are still school age so unfortunately we still limited to school breaks. "The old guy" & I have snuck off for a quickie (visit, that is) now and then.

Welcome aboard.
Post your return home dates and Granny our unofficial timekeeper extraordinaire will add you to our list.

 

[eliza61]

Do I hear the A/C running yet?

I don't know MM, I may have to do a covert ninja rescue mission and kidnap our favorite Maria. We're still hanging out in the high 90's with 80% humidity on the East Coast.

New law: Hot and humid in early June should require Orlando residency.

Good Morning Groupies!
Our trip is tentatively planned for Dec. 3 through Dec. 12. We'll be doing a split stay beginning at VWL and ending at SSR. So, YES, we will be at the lodge Dec. 6th! Would love to become acquainted with everyone!

Thanks for the Welcome! My dear husband seldom takes the time to read (or post) on the boards. He's accustomed to high-speed internet at work.... We are quite rural and have only dial-up accessible to us. Consequently he becomes quite frustrated....
In regard to our daughter's honeymoon, I expected to let MS know at the time I made the reservation that this was a very special visit. Receiving some Disney Magic would make it that much more memorable.

I do hope you can visit during the holiday season sometime. But in the meantime, enjoy your boys. They grow up much too fast!
Our son is in the Army preparing and training to be deployed to Iraq after the first of the year. Fortunately for him, his training is taking place in Hawaii!

Enjoy your day, everyone!

Woohoo! Another Groupie for the meet Dec '09!

And please, from the bottom of this very grateful Groupie's heart, know how much we appreciate your son's service to our country. And grateful for his parents for raising such a selfless kid.

I need an actual person to attach to 'Eliza on the boards'!

I'm happy to announce that I have another VWL trip to add to page one. I just scheduled our one-night visit before the DIS Unplugged Podcast Cruise in a VWL studio for Saturday, May 9, 2009!

Next week I'll be calling to add a couple of days in a 1BR on the back end of that cruise - so we can edit the entry when that happens!
