How about Mall of America?

SHOP, SHOP, SHOP, SHOP.

[Suziecat 379]

There's an airport close by. There's tons of Hotels. There an amuzement park inside the mall. You would definately get our exercise in. I drove thru that area several years ago and I remeber how big the area was and that there looked like a lot of things to do.

Sorry about the double post. I hate when that happens.

AS someone posted a couple pages back...

I would love to experience KC. I am not far from it, but know very little about what it has to offer.

I think they would have a good airport.?. Reasonable lodging, and tons of entertainment. How far would that be for "Jen"? Don't they have good BBQ too... I mean high Protein meals.lol

ok ... i might want to puke, but if I could be heavily drugged and promised that you gals will not let me freak out and get arrested... i would consider going to San Antonio.... I am talking serious drugs and Michelle would have to fly with me... i will drive to her.

I really liked Terry's rafting, cowboys and music and fun... I would love to be closer where I could drive but I am not getting any feedback on that.

As I type this I am feeling horribly sick to my stomach

I just went on to Southwest and for $600 I can get airfair, hotel for 3 nights. The room is booked as 2 person which to me means that I get a room and split the cost to share a room?

I would have to be seriously drugged... seriously....

I'm already changing my mind

how about this suggestion....

how about everyone list what they are looking for 3 quality of a trip

such at warmth?

activities?

gamgling?

type of hotel? pool? hot tub? private rooms?

maybe if we pick a direction we can narrow something down...

yes i've already changed my mind about flying

[maziemommy 8]

My biggest lol (or smallest issue) is budget.

Jen------ I am like you, driving would be way better than flying, but only, if it is cost effective. I don't want to be known as CHEAP- and don't like to be CHEAP, BUT..

SO--- How much can, a room, small dinner, and a tiny tequila cost? When spending time with this group I can't keep up with = priceless!

I WOULD LOVE SOME TIME AWAY... unfortunately it needs to be "reasonable expense wise". Other than that I'm open for suggestions.

Where do you live Mazie?? I don't remember.

Terry

I could look into PA - on the 250 deals there were lots of pa deals - there were also deals to Boston too

As for money it is a slight issue for me too but I dont' care... not just with surgery i've had a rough few years and just need to take care of me, but on the other hand i can't be nuts either. Girls, I just got a nice bottle of Tequila for xmas so i'll be bringing it on our trip

[TracyK 3]

If we go to PA I just might stay and become Amish....

When I went to San Antonio on the riverwalk, I took one of the riverboat tour things. Well, I got on the boat sober and thanks to pitchers of margaritas when I got off I could hardly walk. Sea legs maybe? lol San Antonio is really nice!

Hi Terry - I live in Springfield Missouri.. I hope no one thinks I am implying we should all come here.. all though, there is quite a lot going on here too. lol Missouri is the "Show Me State". And it would be cheaper for me.hahahah
