    LOL Neesie...MY DH went to the post office with me today and joked that if we got a bigger box he could just give me a couple of ambien and I would wake up in NY!  I wish I had the energy to come, but I just couldn't handle the travel this time...maybe next year :)

    Hugs

    Well, I had to resubmit the vacation request today..grrrrrrr.   Honestly, they are procrastinating to not grant me the time off.  No problem, where there is a will there is a way.  They can't keep me from attending Pinkstock this year.  I will make flight reservations so we can fly out on Friday and back in on Sunday.  It may just be Steven and I.   

    MB - Is there still space in any of the campers?  I'm going to send you our registration information with a check.   

    Vickie - thanks for offering to pick us up at the airport.  I'll PM you flight details. 

    I better get busy packing this weekend.   Woohooooo, I can't wait!!!

    The weather here is wonderful. We spent yesterday on my sister's hill and the breeze was really nice. So far we have had a great time. Today my sister is having big BBQ. I am hoping newvickie will come by with Nate. My cell phone is not working very well out here in the boonies. Vickie only lives over the hill. This is so exciting. My sister is telling me it is a 3 hour drive to Ischua. I was thinking about 2. We will be there soon. Oh lets see 6 days to be exact. See you soon.

    I feel guilty...I was one of the ones asking MB if she would be doing it next year! I had heard about it too late to make plans, and it sounds like such a wonderful event, and I am very happy for those that are able to attend, and also highly envious! I hope everyone has a totally wonderful, fantastic time, and I hope to see you all next year (hint, hint MB!).Wink

    Aloha,

    The weather in New York has been fantastic. Other than a quick down poor yesterday there has been no rain. Right now I have a sweater on but with shorts. I can't wait to get to Olean which is apparently 3 hours away instead of the 2 I thought.

    Everyone is telling to eat at a buffet in Olean which is suppose to be the best buffet in the land. Sunday is the day they say.

    MB - glad to see you are read.  (((Hugs)))

    I still don't have the time off approved but I haven't given up yet.  The week is just beginning.  DH is off and waiting for me so we can start packing.  Flights are out of the question, two expensive or inconvenient times.  Oh boy, I will go to work today and eat crow if I have to.  Well, you know what I mean.  :)  

     Have a great day everyone!

    Items I have "together" so far - 4 chairs and 2 bags of paperback books. Oh, drinks and "healthy" snacks for the trip.    MB, think you can hibernate for the winter with the books.

    Getting oil changed in the car later today - at the moment, off to work!!

    Books??? OMG I have a room full here, but I'm afraid DH won't part with any. 

    MB - do you have enough chairs? I can bring 2 reclining ones if you need them. 

    I'll check in later to see if OD posted.  Keeping my fingers crossed for her.

    Surprises ?   Only surprise is that I'm actually coming.  I'm bringing food, oh, books to share if anyone wants something to read.    Do those count? 

    Nessie, I'm getting a new name ?  Can we trade them around ?

    4 days and counting. 

    I have no surprises ladies. I have not had time for any shopping while we have been here. We sure are having fun though.

    Surprises not necessary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  The object of the whole weekend is to relax, meet new people and act silly on a hill!  I just think it is kinda humorous (as do those who know me!) that I'm even attempting to 'craft' something!!

    Weather sounds like it is going to be NICE!

    MB....PM being sent to you!

    Yippee!!!  OD is coming!!!

    I spoke with my gf last night. She told me her company donated so much stuff the boxes fill the back seat of her car!!  She hasn't had a chance to see what anything is yet.  Talk about surprises!!!

    Yeah!  It got there!  I laughed so hard when I saws that....I just had to send it to you.  You are my all-time favorite "Nut on the Hill"  I was trying to figure out how to make some kind of crazy costume for the squirrel so she would fit in better in your neck of the woods, but since Ronald McDonald was already taken, I couldn't come up with anything.

     When the box I sent gets there, make sure and open it up right away.  There are things you will want to have when folks get there.

    Love Ya
