Yay! I hope you can come this year Amberlee. It's definitely a good time, and KAK and I have been carpooling these past 2 years. There's room for one more! ;) hint, hintQuote:

Well, I just added this to my calander so I guess now I have to go.
My friend Cassie and I have talked about a road trip to California since we were in high school. We've also talked about driving to Las Vegas after we turn 21. Well we'll both be 21 by next July and we could stop in LV on the way to or from CA...
I talked to her today and she does want to go. As of right now I'm not sure if there would be a car available (certainly not mine!) that would make it there. So either I need to get off my butt and buy a new car, rent one, or something like that. Oh and hopefully we could umm navigate at least semi-well...I do have maps!
Anyway, please excuse my stupidity here. I've been to California once and I was 5. :o So please answer some questions for me:
What city is the PT meeting in?
How far is it from Disneyland?
How far is it from other CA attractions...such as Hollywood, Universal Studios, etc.?
I wish I could come but I am going to Oregon. :( sorry
Man I wish I could go but alas the bbq is during the Stampede and I have a feeling that I will have a prior commitment with Smudge and the Superdogs. :(
I don't know if any of you are or can be a NON-Profit org. but Disney does offer group discounts...
Are group rates available? Back to Top
Disneyland® park and Disney's California Adventure™ park offer discounts for groups of fifteen or more from a qualified non-profit organization. For detailed information and prices, please contact our Group Sales office at (714) 956-6860â€_.

I read something about residents of Orange County* can buy discount tickets. I am a resident of Orange County (note to self....when ARE you going to get a California driver's license) so I will check into the possiblity of discount tickets. Surely I have gotten my license by then....;) :rolleyes: :D

With my zipcode typed in, I would get the 2-day Hopper for $73 if I bought it online or for $106 if I bought it at the gate.
Hmmmm....it looks like we'd have to show proof of address when we got in though, too bad, I was thinking we could get the tickets for everyone. :(
I KNOW its early, but I have an idea...
Let's get a running list of who will be able to attend. MAYBE we can share the same hotels down by Disneyland or L.A.??
Add your name if you are:
FOR SURE attending:
Gini ;) (at least, if we haven't already scared her off!)
Slick
Kelly
Sara
Debbie
Karen
Aaron
Laurie
Maybe:
Amberlee
Terry (??)
Since my job situation is fairly flakey, could you put me in the maybe catagory?
Thanks!
Sure! :)
Gosh everyone, I just stopped by quickly to share something with you.
God has provided me with two INDOOR swimming pools. I don't think they are heated and the water isn't the cleanest.
One is in my basement and the other is in the garage.
Gotta run - I can't decide which to use first:( :( :( :eek:
Sorry to hear about your troubles Gini and I sure hope nothing of value has been destroyed. (actually, I didn't even know you had a basement.) Hope your office is OK. I'd be down there in a flash to help you clean up if I could. Email me if you need to vent.
{{{HUGS}}}

Don't forget me!! Is this for Disneyland, or the BBQ in general? If I can get the time off, I would like to do a day at Disneyland:)Quote:

Paaaalllleeeeezzzzeeeee come to Dizzyland...... ;)
I doubt I'll be able to make it, but I'm hoping. :)
Fur sure for the BBQ, not so for Dizzyland (been there, done that, had fun and would recommend for anyone that hasn't - really. I'm traveling down to visit my brother in San Diego after the BBQ so need the $$ for that). I was just wondering about the Will Rodgers museum and whether a horse ride might be in the realm of possibility. It was closed - more or less - last year, for those that weren't there, but the possibilities for a later visit just made my heart soar (and if we do get to ride maybe my butt sore :D )
I'm not for sure about anything yet... work wise, it's looks like it's all a-go, but I forgot about a little something called summer skewl if I want to grad THIS FALL! (Can you believe it? I sure can't!)Quote:

I'm always up for anything to do with horses. If the Will Rogers museum isn't open, perhaps there's another nearby place offering a trail ride?
I'm up for some "horsing around". :) ;)
I'm back in the saddle again
Out where a friend is a friend
Where the long-horn cattle feed
On the lonely jimson weed
Back in the saddle again
I'm riding the range once more
Totin' my old 44
Where you sleep out every night
And the only law is right
Back in the saddle again
Whoopee-ti-yi-yo, rockin' to and fro
Back in the saddle again (once again)
Whoopee-ti-yi-yae, I go my way
Back in the saddle again
As per a signature I once had, way back when I broke my wrist at the university stables (the day before finals I might add :rolleyes: ):

Oh, Lord won't you buy me, a horse that won't buck.
Im tired of trying, to land standing up.
I spend all my time, brushing dirt off my butt.
Oh, Lord won't you buy me a horse that won't buck.
Gini...
If you get tired of your swimming pools...or just want to use an outdoor pool.....come on over to "Lake Snare"
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...c/f5868b95.jpg
it just keeps growing!
With the last downpour my garage flooded completely. It took less than 10 minutes with water about 2-3 inches deep. The majority of the water is coming from a house two doors away.
Just got that pumped out and now I am on my way to the basement to deal with that.
I think I have lost my freezer in the garage.
I don't have flood insurance - I have earthquake insurance.
No pictures - they just aren't pretty.
I will get back to all of you about your questions..........and I am sorry I have been neglecting this thread.
And it looks as though it is ready to cut loose again.....skies are jet black.:o :o :o
Sorry about all the flooding, Gini. :(
I'm a definite for the BBQ, but everything else is up in the air, including Terry. ;) I don't know if he'll be attending or not, and I don't know how much time I'll have. I'd love to do a day at Dizzyland and a trail ride! It all sounds wonderful to me - even the sore butt part. ;) :D
:o LOL LOL Now I just have to go to Dizzyland! That would be so much fun! :DQuote:

Laurie, a trail ride sounds like fun too! You can count Aaron out for that one though...for some reason horses and Aaron just aren't a good mix :o But I love it! :D
Yikes, Gini...this rain hasn't been good to you this year, has it?
Is it July yet???!!! :)
Uh, YEA you do!!!! You HAVE to come to Disneyland...we haven't been together since New Years of 2004!! You just HAVE too!! Want me to call your boss??? ;)Quote:

What about the Los Angeles Equestrian Center? Gini, do you know if they have riding? I can look that up too. :)
Gini, I'm so sorry you have two pools now. :( I didn't know you had a basement either. I hope the water will dry up for you soon.
Gini,
When you can, let me know if any of these addresses are close to you. I did a search on riding stables in Los Angeles. :)

Here's a different one:
http://www.horseback.us/Horseback-Ri...alifornia.html
This one looks neat...but I didn't know horseback riding was so expensive:
http://www.sunsetranchhollywood.com/...ide/index.html
Oh, not that expensive if we don't do an organized ride:
http://www.sunsetranchhollywood.com/rentals/index.html
Hi everyone,
Sorry, I am not around more often.
Here is what I know.
The L.A. Equestrian Center doesn't offer rides. It is for boarding and they offer individual or group lessons. I used to take my niece there for her lessons and I just loved the place. But, you couldn't ride.
Will Rogers State Park should probably be open again. However, the horses you would have seen are boarded there by the polo player owners. I think you saw the huge polo field - really fun to just go watch them.
There is Griffith Park..........haven't been there in ages, and that is close to me. They used to offer rides. I should go look.
The Sunset Ranch you found, Kelly looks great. Not sure where it is.........but I could look that up.
I am not sure which day you would want to do this, but you can count on me and Scotty taking four other people. (if you don't whine and ask to stop for onion rings!)
Count Freckles and I in! And if all works out with Olive, you'll get to meet TWO doggies! :D
I would LOVE to go to Disneyland too. Can I come, pretty pretty please? Don't know what I would do with Freckles then though...I know they have boarding at Disneyland. :p
Sorry guys - won't be able to make it this year either - hmph!:confused: :confused:
Will try harder next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek: :confused: :eek:
Lynne
:( :( :( I know, you are just pushing for us to come visit YOU! Oh OK OK...
Yeah, Lynne, you can't get out of things that easily. You just watch out - there will be a big surprise for you in 2006! {God Willing)Quote:

L4Me - glad that you can come. Rascal, Annie and Emma are asking me WHO'S FRECKLES???? He doesn't chase cats does he?
I've been asked to start my "Kelly Kountdown" ;)
Kelly Kountdown: 184 days until the BBQ!!!!
;) I'll only do this every few days or once a week so we wont be tortured by how far away it is.
:D
OMD, I had better get busy!:D :D
If you need help cleaning, you let me know.....Quote:

Kelly, does David pump water very well?
Can you believe it - it is Thursday and I am still pumping out the basement. It gives you all an idea of how much rain we really got. The ground is saturated!
But, I am grateful I have a basement to pump out - and I say prayers for the people that lost their lives and those who lost their homes in our recent storms.
Now...back to the BBQ (and work!):D
My boss has ok'd the date!
But, I won't know what days/dates my summer skewl will be until later into this semester.
If skewl interferes with the BBQ, I will write you a note.Quote:
