Shelly - Glad you had nice weekend trip. What is Cabelas?

Thanks Seacrest! :goodvibes Cabela's is a huge specialty retail store that mostly has hunting, fishing, camping, and outdoor stuff. They also have a huge display of big game animals (stuffed and mounted), and a large aquarium. I don't really get into that kind of thing, but it really was quite the sight. There are also electronics, food, home furnishings, clothing, and Christmas items. There was even a restaurant on the mezzanine level. I'll have to post some pictures! There are about 25+ Cabela's throughout the country. Doesn't look like there are any in CA.

:wave2:
Just checking in...

So much has happened since I was on, so let me recap everything ...

Huggie, hope your trip is going great. It was great to see you pop in for a bit. Speaking of POP, how do you like it?

Seacrest...how ya' doin'? The video... ahhhh, loved it.:love: Disney land! Disney Land!

JC, girl, hugs to you. :hug: I hope you get to go to DL soon enough. How's the packing/moving/throwing out/donating/let's have a garage sale move coming along?????? I had prayer time for you guys this morning...:cloud9:

Shelly, here's the sight... on Saturday, I got off of the DIS, turned on the tv...and they were having a special on...Oglebay resort! I said "oh, oh, oh, Shel's there!", and everyone was like...:confused: :laughing: Glad you had good weather. The cabela's looks like the museum of Nat. hist.;) Loved the elephant...they are my fave. Everyone always yells for Mom when one comes on tv.:love:

Lake~ Have you posted any pics of Charleston??? I don't know if I saw them... We are headed down there for Christmas in 11 days. I cannot wait. My Mom and I are taking Belle to see Beauty and the Beast. She doesn't know it yet.

NewCrew...Hey you.:hug:


Okay, here's my news. You ready?????????

We moved the dates of our trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:scared1:

I looked on Unoffcial Guide's website for crowd projections, and saw that the week before Thanksgiving, our week, they were estimating 7's out of 10's. Um, no thank you.

Really, I have been worried all along about crowds. I just am used to not many crowds now, and can't go back. What I was coming up against, though, was a little thing called Florida football. (BTW, our QB won the Heisman!!!!!! Woot!) DH wanted to go to the Carolina/ UF game, but we talked for about 3 hours last night and this morning and decided to bump it up. Now our dates are October 23-Nov 1. I am ecstatic. Now, instead of spending three days in Gainsville, we are just going to stay at POFQ the whole time (9 days) and drive down to the game Saturday morning. The kids won't know about any of it. I'll tell ya'll my plan later...

Oaky, let's see, other news...

Oh, I went to my dr this afternoon. She is telling me that her gut is telling her that it's rheumatoid arthritis that isn't showing up yet in blood tests. The MRI showed swelling in my right foot and fluid on my tendons. I didn't even know it was swollen.:confused:

She wanted to put me on a medicine for arthritis and I declined, because I am feeling pretty good. So for now, it's a wait and see game. I just don't like taking meds and will do anything to get out of it...:laughing:


Ok, um, let's see, what else?

Oh gosh, ya'll have 5 months! :banana: Frozen banana dude, again.:confused3

Now I have to go and change my ticker and change my dates with WDW. Oh, I can use my Pin code too and save almost $500! WOW.

Jo
 
Jo - Congrats on moving up your WDW trip. Sounds like you are going to have a really great time. Sorry to hear about medical issues...I hope and pray that everything works out OK and that you don't have to take a lot of meds.

Good morning!


Hey JO - Congrats on moving your Disney trip up!! I was thinking about you this morning at the grocery store as I got my FREE dog food!! ;)


Lake - Great pictures! Looks like you had a great time!
:idea: I'm thinking WDW in January 2009, what do you think?!? :rotfl:

Yes, MAY is awesome!! :snooty: :yay:

But I am seriously thinking that I'd like to try January sometime!! I'm hoping they offer the same special for Jan 2009 as they did for Jan 2008. Then maybe I can talk DH into it!! :wizard: :thumbsup2
 
So I changed my dates!

I called CRO and I added on 3 days and bumped the dates up. At first, the CM said she couldn't get me POFQ, only POR. But then she sprinkled some PD around, and viola!
2 rooms @PoFQ, using pin code that I had, and I am saving $650 from the original quote she gave me. I'm only paying $450 more than my original trip.

So....for $450 more, I am getting two rooms, three more nights.


Um, okay, I've confused myself. Again. I hate it when that happens.:confused:

:laughing:

2009....
okay, I'll have to work on that one.;)
