My next big trip will be Texas. So, if I can swing it at the time you will all be there, and Helen can make it, then we'll come then. Otherwise, we'll take our Texas trip sometime, and see whoever we can while we're there. :)
Plan the trip, and if we can come, we will. :D
Well you know my vote would be for Arizona! But, provided hubby lets me go and we can afford it I would be willing to drive to TX or CA :D!
And, I most definitely want to avoid the busy spring break time. Things are more expensive, more crowed and much more crazy!
I realyl wish I could go, guys, but being 16 yeard old and living in MA, it's near impossible! But I hope you all do it and take tons of pictures for the rest of us at home!
It looks to me like Texas might have it, I'm sure someone who lives there will know a nice hotel that takes dogs etc and can let everybody know where it is located. It's to far for us to drive and I wouldn't leave my dogs to fly so we will look forward to the pictures, you better take lots of them.

Calif. has not lost out yet....
Right now I will float to the heavens to meet with the heathens and wherever whenever..
laurie :eek: :D
Texas would be best for me. But I could also try the other places. If its in Texas, I could make it anytime.
Just think if everybody got together in Texas in Aly's town she would have us all going home with another pet!! The shelters would get cleaned out of homeless pets. :eek: :D :eek:
I prefer Texas but I AM willing to travel to other places.
It would be nice to have a west coast meeting, an east coast meeting, and then something/somewhere in between. (Hmm...maybe we could make it an annual event and hold it in different places each yr...)
Yep, there will probably be more and I sure hope I'm there for every one of them!
Texas seems to be doing well in the "polling" though there are people who couldn't come. Why don't we plan a "Texas Spring Break" when the most people are to make it, and meet maybe at the big cat sanctuary that Chuck (okay, Spencer-the-Lion) mentioned. Then we could plan maybe a Michigan/Midwest type event for some time in the summer, when Texas'd be too hot, anyway, and maybe a third event, some time in the future, for San Diego, and we could all go to the Wild Animal Park there! What do you think, gang?
And Bridget, maybe we could comvince your mom that Paul and I would be acceptable guardians and you could fly with us and come to Texas, too! I can be really grown-up, honest!
You better believe it :D :D :D :D :DQuote:

I think Karen's plan sounds great--count me in!
Karen, this is why you are the moderator of this board (and supreme ruler of us all :D )... because you are such a diplomat and have such fabulous ideas!!!
Texas is absolutely out of my budget this year (mainly because I only get 10 vacation days and want to use those towards a vacation that my hubby could go on with me over the summer before he hets a "real job"; and because Texas is so far I'd have to buy plane tickets or take at least four extra days off work just for travel time. Trust me, I've been trying to make this work, but there are too many reasons it won't this year :( :( :( )
But a Michigan/midwest reunion is PERFECT for me (even an east coast reunion is probably within only one day's car trip away!) Karen, I am going to place my vote for a summer Michigan area reunion! Maybe we can plan it for when KayAnn is in Michigan with her family! Staci and I are in Ohio, Leslie is near Detroit I believe, and there's several others within a few-state radius. Toledo has a great zoo, but I don't know if it's enough of a draw for those who would have to travel great distances. Maybe Leslie knows of some meeting spots near her?
u know Austin is a great city... Nelly was born there!! sorry had to say that. :rolleyes:
Both sets of my grandparents live right outside of Detroit. If there's a Michigan get-together sometime, I *might* be able to make that one too.
