I will fly in on Thursday night too, just because of my issues.... but i have to head back Monday ... I am packing the kids up and taking them on vacation Tuesday morning to come back on Sunday... so I can include them in on some fun time next year.

I am sure I'm going to have a new job but I will tell them I need a week off.... it is what it is.

Anyway, going to drink coffee and go shopping... old navy is having a huge sale today.

Jane... because of what happened last time, I will be biting the bullet and driving 5 hours to get to Detroit so it will be a straight flight of 1 hour 49 minutes.. not an allllllllllllll day affair like last time.

Terry so we are going to do the extra day on Thursday?.. I'll find an earlier flight!

[TerriDoodle 6]

yeah, the extra day would be Thursday night.

[TracyK 3]

I have no idea when I am going to get there cause I am gonna get my SIL to get me a free flight. Bad thing (if there is a bad thing about flying free) is I have to fly standby. I will just rent a car when I get there.

[Teachlady 3]

I can come in on Thursday at 9:39 a.m. and leave Monday at 11:30 a.m. or 5:00 p.m. whichever works in everyone else's schedule.

Here are cost estimates:

Lodging for 3 nights = $200

Lodging for 4 nights = $300 (assuming there are 6 of us)

Car rental $50-60 each (3 full size cars)

So do ya'll want me to get the house for Thurs night too?

[Teachlady 3]

1 vote yes here...

[Haydee 2]

Yes over here too. I had already said I wanted to stay an extra day...

[kity 2]

I vote yes too.

Is it easier/cheaper to stay at a hotel in Huntsville and waiting for all the violets then traveling on ward to our final destination. I am unclear on the specifics. I just need to travel on Thursday cause it takes all day to get there! I don't want it cut into my violet time.

[TerriDoodle 6]

My thoughts are to go ahead and check into the house. By the time we got enough hotel rooms to house ~6+ people, it would end up costing about the same (but I haven't checked that for sure). Besides, we can spend some time stocking it with supplies and be done with that chore.

Check-in is at 4:00 but we can request early check in, too...for a $25 charge.

[TracyinKS 7]

yes yes I'm coming in on Thursday! I will most like book next week...

[Jennifur 0]

I will be there on Thursday, I can't guarantee what time

Last day of school is that day, so i can't book til feb or so

I am going to rent a car, I have all kinds of specials because I do it alot. But i will run and pick up people and don't have a problem ssharing so i think you should only get 2 cars???

If ya'll want to stay in a hotel in H'ville, actually get one in Madison,AL. The airport is Huntsville, but it's actually in Madison and that's where I live. Parts of Huntsville are pretty run down, and I don't really know the hotels there.. but I know plenty in Madison on Hwy 20/Madison Blvd. that are good priced & decent.
