Q of the D

Hello all, how was your weekend? Valentines? All this cruise and vacation talk, ladies and gents, where would you go? P.S. Help! I'll do my best to post the Q of the D but family, work & kids often keep me from staying constant! Anybody wanna help?

We went to Magic Kingdom on Saturday...my 12 year old is being pre-teenish so it wasn't much fun. Sunday dropped of my hubby at the airport and then shopped all afternoon for my girls. Valentines was pretty interesting...the night before I found the order confirmation for my flowers on my sons printer. My husband needs to remember to remove the evidence! Well I got my flowers and then a few hours later I got them again They double ordered them by accident, I got 2 set, atleast they look different I would love to go on that cruise to Alaska, been my dream vacation for years, but we have no vacation time til next year. I would love to go to the Keys with my husband, we haven't been since our honeymoon. This summer we are going to Wisconsin for 2-3 weeks, so that will have to hold me over til more exotic locations come up. Tracey -117

Excuse me, but surely you're not saying that Wisconsin isn't exotic, are you?? I lived there for 10 years and it's very exciting there, watching the grass grow!!! Jan

I was born and raised there til I was 13 I am very good a****ching grass grow bu****ching snow melt is my forte! Where did you live up there? I lived in Kenosha, Stevens Point, Prescott and Spooner...then I moved to Upper Michigan 100 miles north of Green Bay (nearest mall). I really had culture shock when I moved from the U.P. to Orlando. Tracey

The UP to Orlando?? Yup, that would be culture shock alright!!! I still miss some of the Wisconsin food that I'll never have again! I lived in Sheboygan, just a few blocks from the Lake. I loved it but don't miss the bitter cold!! Jan

My dad was stationed in Sheboygan in the Coast Guard. I do miss living up there at times, we were the only year-round residences on a huge lake...all the city kids from St. Paul came up in the summers. I don't miss getting snowed in on the weekends living 20 miles out of town with the nearest neighbor being 4 miles away. It would be nice to go to Oktoberfest in Milwaukee again though . Hopefully we will go to the Dells this summer, I never went even when I lived up there. Tracey

I'll be going to Wisconsin this summer as well. My husband is from Auburndale, which is near Marshfield. I remember going through Stevens Point the last time we went up there. We try to go up there every year for the 4th of July. Kim

Only thing I know about Marshfield is the hospital...I remember as a kid whenever someone was seriously ill they went there. It has been 17 years since I have seen my family up there . Sad thing is I lived up near them only 10 years ago. Tracey

I had a nice Valentines. My hubby took me out to dinner. I had shrimp scampi (yum) I only ate two, they were large, but they were great and it is only the second time I have eaten out since surgery. After dinner we went on a walk on the beach and back to the house. Very nice. I would like to take a cruise. I have never been out on a cruise ship and would love to head to the carribean. Right now,any thing warm would do. I stay cold if it isn't above 70. Of course I love to travel by car and would love to drive the florida coast again and just wander through all the towns along the water. We did a lot of the coast in 91 and had a great time. PS, Momma Smith, don't worry if you aren't constant on Q of the D. We understand. It is a lot to do everyday as Amy B talked about. Just do when you can and if someone else wants to pop one on, all the better. Some days we might have two but we are all very flexible. Relax. Enjoy Have a great day Carol

I'm going to the keys end of March. This is a family thing we do every 2 years for a week. Then we try to camp at the lake 1 other week during the year. tina
