LA GTG!!

alright, ladies.  the time has come for y'all to get your butts out to sunny cali for a weekend for a GTG.  i have picked the date of sept 3rd-5th.  i will be taking off that friday to pick people up from the airport.

what do i have plan you ask.  well, just a little day trip to do some wine tasting in solvang on the 4th.  (the 3rd and 5th are open till we see who is all come and what time people need to come and leave)

even though it is opening weekend for UofM, jake has offer to be our DD and photograher for that day.

everyone is welcome to say at our townhouse.  we do have a spare bedroom, air mattress and a couch. depending on how many girls make it we can make it work.  if you need your own bed there is 2 hotels walking distance from my house.  one closer then the other.

if you are game, please let me know so i can add you on the e-mail list!

Re: LA GTG!!

  • Boo. The 3rd is the mister's birthday and my best friend is due to pop (in Boston) on the 5th. I definitely cannot leave the east coast in early September...

  • Can you add me as a "probably yes"? It shouldn't be a problem, & I really want to go, but I just can't commit 100% before I know how much it will be.

  • boooo!  That's the start of my 'busy' time until after E- Day
  • Hmmmm...this could be a possibility for me.  DH has an interview with United on Wednesday and if he gets it he'll have some sweet flying perks that I will be able to enjoy!  I'll let you know!
  • I'll be on maternity leave so I wouldn't have to take off of work, but I can't commit to anything until I see what life is like with a baby.  Definitely keep me on the email list because I'd really like to try and make it work.

  • So jealous!  I will be well into my third trimester by then, so I won't be able to make the trek from Boston.  But am so sad because I would love to meet you ladies and Solvang is one of my favorite places on earth (we got engaged over a picnic at Rusack Vineyards)!  Have some yummy wine for me!  And if you do another GTG out that way in the future, definitely let me know!  Sounds like a blast!
  • I will be an official nestie by then woot woot!!  Can I be added as a possible yes.  =))

    saraholeary@ymail.com

    cost should not be too bad.  i am guessing you will need $60 (that is for 6 wineries.)  at the most for tasting and we know a lot of owners and managers, so they might cute us a deal.  

    then the cost of splinting the rental we will get for all of us to fit.  that should not be too bad since i get 10% off at enterprise.  i do hope you come!

    you can crash at my place which is free!  Big Smile

    That all sounds very reasonable so I don't see why I couldn't come. I told Ted about it and he is like "Yes, of course you're going!" lol. So I'm sure I'll be there :) I'm very excited. I know zilch about wine, so it should be interesting having me there! hahahaha. Plus I'm a lightweight.  Stick out tongue

    I live in Orange County so crashing at your place probably won't be needed, but thanks for the offer! :)

    You don't have to know anything, that's the beauty of winetasting!  Everyone has to start somewhere!

  • I may be going to San Jose in the fall with DH.  He has a business meeting there.  If not, then I'll whisper sweet nothings in his ear and see if I can go to this instead :)  But I do need to check the Redskins schedule because I think they play the Colts in Sept. and I'm definitely going to that. 

    Email me though and keep me updated.  Thanks!

    alright, ladies.  the time has come for y'all to get your butts out to sunny cali for a weekend for a GTG.  

     

    I am getting my butt out to sunny cali for a weekend GTG but YOUUUUU aren't going! Stick out tongue

    You can put me on the probably not but keep me updated list.  That would be my 4th long weekend trip in a few months...my boss might have my hide.

    yeah - I have to say no to all additional travel right now. the time off work lately and the money spent for plane tickets in 2010 is getting ridiculous.

    You girls have fun though!!

  • So I checked with Eric to see if anything else was going on that weekend and he said nope.  As long as I'm still here I will definitely got with you guys.  Thanks for planning Marelina.  And thank Jake in advance, he's gonna need it.  Hee hee hee.
  • put me on the probably list!  I REALLY want to go!!

  • And...5 days later, please add me...bigwuhead at aol.com...

     I think that's Labor day weekend?!?! If so then assuming I've got some extra money and we arn't hosting a party...i'm in.

  • Boo!  I'd so be down for this since I may soon have a great L.A. 'hook up' but that's typically the weekend before school starts- if it is, there is absolutely NO WAY I can go! BOO!Crying
