I am so excited to see the Arabians- the most gorgeous horse in the world. I would LOVE to own one in the future, along with a good old Quarter Horse. :D :D :D
We got our train tickets in the mail a while back- so we are going for sure!
YaaaaHooooo! Gini & I were wondering where this thread was and what, if anything, was still happening. I'll get back to you all later when I get more definate info. This is SO :cool:
I haven't booked my hotel yet. Did we decide on the 24th-26th instead of the 17th-19th for sure? I have a test on the 17th so the weekend of the 24th would be better for me. I could still make it the 17th, but I wouldn't get in until later.
AmeriSuites is TOTALLY booked for the weekend of the 24/25th :mad: Now what? Drat, drat, double drat :( I'll check LaQuinta or a Choice or something. Where is anybody else staying??
Just checked Comfort Suites Uptown, sounds great, rooms available. Special deal for $62.95 per night. LaQuinta by the airport has rooms for $67.49. Comfort is closer to fair grounds and all rooms are suites. Really sounds good. Liable to be a very busy, booked weekend so probably a good idea not to wait too long.

Ohh, thats too bad about Amerisuites. Let me know if you need other options, or need to know where things are located....
have you been to florida?!?!? well i think you should try it if you havent! there is a pettalk meeting here in fla!! lol come!! :DQuote:

Show schedule still isn't posted... not sure if they will be posting one this year or if they're just late with it.
Rumor has it that Patrick uhh... the guy from dirty dancing *mind went blank* .... will be there. (He has Egyptian arabs in the show.)
Swayze? yum!
double yum:D

I have been to Florida - a couple times, actually, both before Pet Talk existed. And I have a cousin in Miami who is in a wheelchair and would love me to visit, and an aunt and uncle up in Pinelas County ...
I'll bring my Dirty Dancing CD! If we see Patrick, I'm gonna play I've Had the Time of my Life and make him sing it to me! Muahahaa!
If we all wear PetTalker t-shirts and/or hats and start singing to HIM we're liable to scare the poor lad half to death :D He'll think we're a cult :eek:
Go see her in august!! And then on the way in october ;) stop on by the meeting!! :DQuote:

Yep! That's him!:)Quote:

That Newton guy also has arabs but I don't know if he shows them.
Newton guy :confused: who? Fig? :rolleyes:
I was thinking "sir Isaac"? Zip what newton guy?
didn't want to say it but she probably means WAYNE :rolleyes:
ohhhhhh!!!! :eek:
(Is he still alive?)
Paul's from Newton, so he's a "Newton guy" - but he owns no Arabian horses! ;)
But, does he sing and dance in Vegas?

Yes, the Vegas guy. Did I get his name wrong? :o
from the Wayne Newton Web site...............
Wayne became extremely popular in Las Vegas. He even has a street named after him. He acquired the Aladdin Casino along with his large ranch. He lived a very good life style. Then in 1992 he had to declare bankruptcy.
Wayne continues as one of the most popular headliners there is. Still performing in Las Vegas.
How fun. You got his name right, I just couldn't remember him!

Babolaypoo.... We *may* be closer together sooner than expected. After yesterday, I'm ready to call it quits on Texas Tech and just go back to NMSU for my masters. That'd be 1.5hr drive to meet half way.... but *big grin* what's half way?
Meet you at the tumbleweed by the yucca, at noonish tomorrow? lol
Cool. But the tumbleweed moved! How about the dead lizard near the thing, by that place?
Actually, wouldn't something like the Owl bar and grill be half way for reals?
I just drove by the amerisuites and yeah, they built a homewood suites next door. looks nice!

I really need to get my bottom in gear and book a hotel room or I'll be sleeping under a bridge :p
I dont have a url for the bridge. Sorry ;)
Hey aly, lemme know which one you'll be staying at.
Laurie sent me a pm of a hotel nearby that looked good but now I can't find where I put the info! The Amerisuites is booked already. Laurie - can you post the hotel that you found again because I'm a doofus?
Tonya - is your mom coming?
I'm not 100% sure yet---first she was, then she wasn't, then she was....
She's out of town right now or I'd ask again.
Isn't there a post about three pages back about some La Quintas??
For all of you who are flying/riding trains in, what time and day will you be arriving? After talking to Tonya last night, I guess its a safe bet both of us will be in late Friday, but maybe earlier in the day if we both can swing it!
I didn't see this before now...Quote:

I have no clue! Not sure where that's at! :)
Sorry, too lazy to go back and read the thread.......:o
Some questions...
Who all is officially and unnoficially going?
Is there something planned for both Saturday and Sunday?
Can we bring dogs to the event?
I'm working on convincing my mom...we'd have to rent a car, drive down Friday night...be there Sat and Sunday and drive home Sunday night or Monday morning. I'd really like to bring Nebo if possible.
This is the service I used before to book hotels...it's great.....check out all the pet-friendly motels in Albuquerque!

Yes Amy, dogs are allowed there. I will probably bring Reece. I'd definately bring him if someone else was also bringing a dog.
I think the definites so far are : babolaypo65, lbaker, ACGAS, YLL, Tonya, and myself.
And are Karen and Paul a maybe? And micki, Gini and Naomi might be maybes too? Oh and maybe Tonya's mom!
Sweet! :D Well I'll be working extra-hard on convincing my mom....if it's a yes, it will be me, her, and most likely Melissa. And the brat dog Nebo.
I could fly, but I won't fly with a dog...and driving is much more amusing...
Aly, if I bring Nebo, you are soooooooo bringing the Reece man! ;)
Hey what about Parnone? I wanna see Oz!!
