Need some Wilderness cheer this morning.

Career night at Sid the squids middle school last evening. His top 3 career choices.

3. Astronaut
2. Wide reciever for the NE Patriots.
1. Transformer Robot with the "nuclear heat seeking missle cannon grip" that transforms into a Hummer.

Is there a college program for that? Only 52 days to go.

We missed ya, try to catch a breather. Real life has a way of sneaking up on us no matter how fast we run.

I laminated a little VWL groupie sign for the door. Now I just have to figure how to attach it (maybe on a hangtag over the doorknob). I hope we run into each other. It would be so cool to meet a real live groupie!!

Thanks to everyone in the group for the good travel wishes.

Hey guys, just dropping by after having to fend off some people who seem to think that the VWL hallway is longer than BWV!

I gave a little remedial math lesson, so hopefully we put that one to bed.

Deb....I love those pictures! Thanks so much for sharing them.

JT & Cheer...enjoy your trips completely!

Mia...another great graphic to keep us chuckling.

Muushka...just saying hi....no news really!

Everyone else...have a great day!!

Oh,

Lovely pictures Deb.

Good news first. We got some informal, as in verbal not written, good news this week about the job situation. I prefer formal and written but we're going.

Now, there's a storm brewing for the entire drive. So I had to take one night off of VWL to have points for two nights studio so my parents to have their own place that they could check in without us. Cause it's all a crapshoot these weather warnings. (They are in Florida and were orginally staying with us for two nights). It would send my father to the moon to be sitting in a lobby hour after hour and we might not even appear.

More good news. It is a AKV Dedicated Savannah view studio for them!!!!! I almost passed out on the phone thinking there wouldn't be one studio on property for two consecutive days. A Savannah view! What! MS must have a hoot with shocked DVCers at times. Better days than disappointed ones.

So who knows when we'll leave or arrive. Upper New York State is going to get hit hard.

What a drama this is becoming. But so happy to go. So grateful and happy.

And I see I have a moose to hunt down. Moose door hunt here I come.

Most importantly, drive safely Lisa.
While I think Moose can hang out in the snow. I haven't heard of a car with "moose wheel traction" yet. The cool thing about the Lodge, whenever you get there- it's always welcoming.

I attached mine to the "Do not disturb" sign and hung it there all week. The only drawback is that if you are waiting for housekeeping, they will not knock on the door. Happy Trails!

Hi Granny. I saw that thread. At first I was going to comment, but then I said to myself, "Self, Granny will handle this much better than you can" and sure enough, you showed up with GPS info, areal views of the 2 resorts and a great picture of the RF menu. I said to myself "Go Granny Go"!!!

 

[Muushka]

Yes, Lisa, as Eliza said, safe travels and I hope you have a great vacation.
Sounds like it is starting out very well!

 

[blossomz]

Lisa-
I'm sure they will LOVE the savannah view! Sounds like it will be wonderful!
Be careful...that storm sounds like a doozy!

Cheer... I was thinking about bringing one of those hooks that stick on and then come off cleanly. I use them around the house with great success!

 

[mickeymorse]

Lisa. Just wanted to wish you safe driving. You might need to crack open a bottle of Moose Milk once you get down there

Granny, like Muushka said, you did a splendid job with the aerial shots etc...

 

[Granny]

Oh man! Moose Dust I can handle. Moose Milk???

 

[lisaviolet]

Thanks for all your wonderful thoughts Groupies. Off within the next three hours. Yeah!!!

Lisa

 

[50 years Too!]

I'm glad you enjoyed seeing pictures of our lodge in my neck of the woods.
Thanks for all the nice comments.

Lisa, drive very carefully. How nice of you to be so accommodating for your parents. Glad it worked out getting rooms.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone.

Good afternoon groupies. Just received the email that we finally closed today!

Went down to the wire on our extended deadline and had a few horrified hours when the title company told me our wired money never made it into their account. It was their mistake and they apologized profusely. I was so happy to hear the money was found I couldn't even bother giving them a hard time about making us worry for no reason.

Well I guess I'm official and will be in the system in 7-10 days and start planning that first trip!
