The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread

[wildernessDad]

I need a VWL fix! I just wish that my life wasn't so darn rigid.

I'm crying on your shoulders, I know. But I figure that you all understand this.

Awww. We at the VWL Groupies thread have really big shoulders. I think you need one of these:

to make you smile.
I hope your day gets better. When is your next fix?

Thank you for the dancing moose!

My next VWL fix will be either in September, if I don't get the AKV ressy, or January if I do.

On another related note, I almost canceled my AKV purchase a while back. I looked in my closet one morning after I committed to the AKV purchase and saw my WL t-shirt hanging on the hange. I felt at that instant like I let a friend down. So I called and canceled but later changed my mind in time.

But VWL is and will be my home.

wildernessDad, we are a passionate bunch, aren't we?

Keli, I LOVE that moose! I may have to steal that too .

On an unrelated note, we are looking to rent a TS in the TN mountain area. I got a response to my request and looked up the TS. YUCK! Palm Beach Pink decoration for pity sake! White walls and lots of mirrors. Light and airey. In a mountain area!! What in the world are they thinking?? Give me the moose, the bears, the trees and the dark colors!!!!

Dare I ask the name so I know what to avoid? We have thought about going there sometime ourselves. My dream home would be a log home, so no Palm Beach pink for me!

I feel like it's OK to belong to both Lodges..afterall..they are cousins in my opinion! Why not extend our loyalty! I'm proud to be an owner of both lodges!

Sure, you can ask. It was a Fairfield resort in Glade, TN.
U.G.L.Y.
If you look it up, let me know if I was being unkind.

I agree blossomz! While our first love will always be VWL, we also felt a kindred connection to AKV (makes sense I guess, since it is the same architect and all! ) and we hope to add on there in the future too.

Muushka - If this is the resort you're talking about which shows the images on the right, http://www.redweek.com/resort/P892 , I agree with you. That is SOOOOOOOOO not what I would want a mountain resort to look like! Thank goodness VWL is so authentically themed!!

Yup, that's it all right. Imagine having to go to central FL to feel like you are in the mountains!

PS. My enjoyment of the moose extends deep into my past...I had a "Brake for Moose it Could Save your Life" bumper sticker on for years and years. I did my best to warn all fellow Ohioans, even though as been pointed out to me many times...there are no moose in Ohio!

I have a "Brake for Moose " sticker too.. and we don't have Moose either The real kicker is I "live" in Northern California..near lake Tahoe and we bought VWL which is really just like home (I'll have to post a picture). You think we would have picked BCV or BW No way Jose... There is nothing even close to the feel you get when you walk into the lodge

 

[bobbiwoz]

Yes, keliblue, post a picture of your home, I'd be happy to see it.

My current Brake for Moose sticker comes from the New Hampshire Dept. of Fish and Wildlife..a present from my family!

We're going to hopefully be at AKV in the middle of Sept have a great Dismeet later in the month...but someday, I do hope to meet you!!!

[bobbiwoz]

Here is a picture of my lodge in the mountains ..

Beautiful scenery...and a wonderful home! OMG....that's lots of snow to have to deal with! I hope you have a favorite snowy sport...mine would be enjoying the fire.
