Attention Everyone Who Reads This Thread!~~

The Shrinkin' Violets are planning a meet and we cordially invite you to attend!

When: Fri., May 16 - Mon., May 19

Where: Deep Creek Lake, in Western Maryland

Who: Anyone who'd like to come!!

What: Talking, drinking, spa treatments, talking, photo ops, not much sleeping, bonding, drinking, talking, fun, surprises... and more!

RSVP: ASAP to mdrai

For those who will be flying in to the Washington, DC, area... you have 3 choices for airports: BWI (outside Baltimore), Dulles (in Virginia), and Reagan National (in DC). I've listed these in order from best to worst... so try to get into BWI! You'll want your flight to ARRIVE on FRI, MAY 16, in the MORNING (by 11am - Noon)! You'll want your flight to DEPART on MON., MAY 19, in the EVENING (after 6pm). Why? Because it's about 1 hour from the airport to my house (our staging area)... then approx. 3 hours to the Lake. Please try to coordinate flights, so efficient pick-up, drop off can be organized!

If anyone wants to fly in on Thurs., May 15 or out Tues., May 20, I'll be happy to pick you up @ the airport AND you may stay here at my home.

Questions? PM me or post them here.

Again -- EVERYONE IS INVITED! The more the merrier!

For this second round of "rsvp'ing", so far I have (in no particular order & sorry if I've missed someone!!)...

1. me

2. Jennifur

3. Terridoodle

4. Judy

5. Kat

6. Pam

7. TracyK

8. Laura

OK,Roomie! :smile: You've got a deal.

Hell, all 3 of us could pile in 1 room and make it the smokin room.

No, Tracy wants her own room in case we turn out to be wierd. I can't imagine where that fear comes from!! LOL:confused::smile::confused:

Ok this may come off as really stupid.. but it is late, my 2 year old was very active today, and I have taken a sleeping pill over 1 hour ago...

Are you ( FairyFacade or anyone ) saying that the rooms are FREE?

If I can drive in less than 6 hours, and have Free motel room... this may be doable for me. Please correct me if I have misunderstood any of this..

Tunica MS. + MAY 16-19, 2008 + over 10 April Bandster most who drink to a varying degree + Not all Elvis fans, but most or all willing to go to Graceland + Free rooms.

AND $$$... expenses to expect are for travel, entertainment, food and drinks for roughly 3 nights 4 days?

That's ok Terri, I'll bring my sleeping pills. And I caught wind we may not even be sleeping. But I'd rather know I'm with a smoker, so I won't be bothering anyone in the event the Chantix doesn't work for me. AND if it does work, I won't complain about you smoking :smile:

So me & Terry???

And Judy, I've slept with a lesbian all throughout my life.. Nyah nyah!

Yes, but are you a minister's wife?? I rest my case.

MAY 16-19, 2008

Oh I see Judy, you're going to pull that!

That's true though, my sister stopped going to church when the youth pastor (who grew up with me!!) told her.. she's going to hell. So she lost religion that day :smile:

My old church definitely doesn't like the gay community. They didn't like me for the association either. And thus, I don't like churches anymore.

Mazie- NO MOTEL! High Class Fancy Hotel complete with casino & spa. FREE. FOOOO FREEEEE. :myscared:

I will compile a projected cost list after next weekend.

*******************************************************

So Judy is sleeping with Pamela...lol and you -Laura- are sleeping with who to pull this off? Job well done.

I would never!!! :smile:

:smile: :myscared: TracyK and I can room together---nothing crazy 'bout me!!! No there is NOT!!!!!! LOL---ok...so maybe she would like my kind of crazy! So there!

Besides, maybe I am like my Mom, and don't want to room with a lesbian, I might not like him!!!! LMAO--sorry Mom!!!

Everybody needs to start gathering pics and stuff to bring to show!

So I must be really tired, I am up all by myself, Rick has gone on to bed, and I am in here laughing my butt off!!!

I am up for a Graceland trip, if the plane tickets don't break me. I have a question for you TracyK or anyone else who has been there. I understand his music is playing through the tour...HOW does anyone go without singing along? I am serious---I do not want to be the next big hit on YouTube!!!

Don't be cruel.....

Kat

Well ladies, it does my heart good to see everyone having fun on the 'ol trip planning thread again! Yay!

I am DEFINITELY going!! Count me in! I need a roomie!!! I am a NONSMOKER, SNORE-ER (I think) who will indulge in talking, drinking, talking, slots, talking, spa treatments (the more, the better!), eating, aqua-aerobics in the pool (oh yeah, baby, I'm still teachin' it!), maybe Graceland (have already done that & once was enough but maybe again w/the Vi's... it's kinda creepy + all those die-hard Elvis fans take it all way too seriously, especially when you get to the end & the graves & they're all crying & everything... but it is Americana), did I mention talking & drinking?...

Oh man, I missed my chance to "sleep w/a lesbian!" That darn Judy! Couldn't we SHARE the lesbian, Judy?? :smile:

Michelle, if you don't mind my cpap you can be my roommate. I think it is quiet, but then again I am asleep.

Jane

***smoker alert for Kat***

For the time being I am a smoker so I don't know if you would want to room with me!!

It is SO great to see everyone excited about going. I am definitely going to Graceland again. When I went beofre I did not bring in my camera because I did not think it was allowed. This time I am definitely bringing it in!

I am like Laura-I am not going to say I am NOT going to gamble some, I am but I am only bringing limited funds for that part. The main part for me is being able to spend time with all of you and getting to know the violets better.

Pam & Judy...how about a threesome? Really give Judy something to talk about! LOL You all crack me UP!:smile:

Oh man, I missed my chance to "sleep w/a lesbian!" That darn Judy! Couldn't we SHARE the lesbian, Judy??

Yeah, Judy.....c'mon!! Share!! We all want our turn!

(Pam, are you feeling a little exploited??? Nice to be popular, eh? :smile: )

Ok, while ya'll go to Graceland, I'll go get a facial and massage. I wouldn't spend $10 to see it, much less $68!!! I'm a Beatles girl to the core.

Me & TracyK are! But I snore! zzzzzzzzzzz

I am told I snore...I don't know! lol
