Vacation Plans???

sara1998 · #1 03-27-2007, 09:26 PM

Have I started this thread once before??? I can't help it! I love my vacations!!! Unfortunatly, I can only take one a year. Where are you going this year???

I have plans for my girls and I to go to Myrtle Beach. We rented a condo for a week right on the beach. I have no real plans once we get there, except maybe parasailing, renting three wheelers and riding on the beach, and just sitting on my butt enjoying the beach.

This Friday, Sara is going to South Dakota with my folks. (Yes, I'm jealous) They are staying in the Blackhills, and plan to visit Mt. Rushmore, Wind Cave, the Badlands, and going to Wyoming to see Devils Tower. Since Sara will be away from me for a week, (and I will miss her so, she's never been gone from me that long) I am taking the week off from work!

Samantha and I are going to French Lick, Indiana (almost to Kentucky) for Spa Day!! We have a nice room rented in a resort, where we will go have a back, neck, and shoulder massage, facials, paraffin manicures, and pedicures. Then, we plan on sitting in the hot tub in the evening time. I'm sure there is going to be some shopping somewhere in there.... Unfortunatly, we're only going for a night. Then, on Tuesday, I plan to go have one of my tattoos reworked. I have an angel on my left shoulder and above it has Sara's name. Well, the name was never nicely done, and the color on the tattoo has faded, so I am having it all reworked. Sara has no clue. The rest of the week, I am painting Sara's playroom, and cleaning out toy boxes. She says she's getting too old for toys now. (at eight years old!

) Samantha will likely stay most of the week, and bring a couple of her friends down. I'm sure we'll go bowling, to the mall, the movies, and swimming somewhere in there! Hopefully, mom can afford this without breaking the bank! I would like to go camping sometime this summer, but my camping buddy backed out on me recently. I'm not sure camping will happen.

Nothing spectacular. The 14th annual drunken cabin camping trip will be in July. Now that we got the popup, I'm also planning at least 3 other camping trips - one to Allegeny or Letchworth State Parks in May, one to Cranberry Lake State Park in August & one I don't know where in the fall. Still researching that.

I've always wanted to go to SD & see all that stuff. Montana too.

A popup??? Hell, I was proud when I bought a new tent at Dicks for $75... and it's bigger then the one I had that the 'coons ate holes in!!

We so should plan one in Ohio sometime... you in your popup, and me in our.... tent....

spaday sounds fabulous! that's cool having your tat reworked...very nice surprise for sara.

I haven't had a chance to make vaca plans, but will be soon. Considering a trip to boulder end of April, but that will just be a quickie. I would like to get out of the country for a little while.

A few things are for sure:

Stevie @ The Woodlands (my favorite place to see her, second only to the Greek Theatre just outside of LA) on June 2nd.

My parent's 50th anniversary party and fourth of July week at their summer home in Estes Park, Colorado. My favorite relatives from Cape Cod will be there, too. Good times.

And then I will see those lovely relatives soon after the Colorado trip while I spend a week in P-town sandwiched in between the Labor Day weekend. There isn't any other place I would rather be. Pure heaven.

I would like to spend a weekend in South Padre Island with my best friend Patrick, but he's got a boyfriend now, so that might be difficult. We'll see.

And my old friend Tamela is begging me to go to Las Vegas for a fun weekend but I might save that for my birthday in November. Vegas aint going anywhere.

It's going to be a fun summer, though!!

SO much hair, so little time.

Going to Turkey for a week with my mum in May, to one of those luxury resort hotels. Not the usual vacation for me, but I'm looking forward to it, nothing wrong with being pampered

And a long weekend with a girlfriend in August, either Dublin or Stockholm.

I'm going to Vienna, Ohio on July 19th for my sister's national softball tournament!

And I'll be there for like, 10 days. -____-

We've been talking about getting one for years, finally did it last July. BTW - it sleeps 8.

You guys could sleep inside - if it rains.

Thank God - that other guys was really terrible. Sounds like a sweet festival.

You're still staying at my MIL's condo, right? Tell me again when you're going, so I can come down for a day or two.

I will be in Siberia this summer. My Fiancee Stew_Matthews and I will be spending some much needed "down time" together....

markolas · #14 03-31-2007, 09:36 PM

I don't ever go on real vacations, but I really want to move to some country where they take naps in the middle of the day, like Spain or somewhere.

tommer · #15 04-01-2007, 12:50 PM

i'll probably be joining my friends who tour the far east extensively. i still don't know when will my wicked boss let me skip 3 weeks of work, so in fact he will be the one who decides whether i'll be going to india, laos, thailand or china (please, let it not be china).
