Proposed Dates for the 1st Annual "Camp sBitch-out"

Forums:

Sorry ladies, have been out of town. I am so excited about the response I recieved about the cabin get-away. I have 2 possible dates in mind. Let me know which is better for yall, we can either choose majority or split it up and have it twice. This just absolutely excites me: losingmymind, Sia, ChelBell, Sparky, Cruella, Sita Tara, recentlyRetired, KittyKat, Nymh, StepLightly, MostEvil, Evilism, Bellacitin and me all at one place at one time!!!!!!!!! Can yall imagine, its a bitch-fest!!!!

Here are the two dates: 7/25 - 7/27 or 8/8 - 8/10. Choose one and reply!!!!

California?

Cool, you are hereby nominated to schedule a fest during the winter months. I have never been to California, glad to know we gotta friend there! Let me know.

I'm in California too girls! I'd love to help get something together!!

I might come

Did you say you're in TN? I believe I drove this in about 7 hours from where I am in Oklahoma. Of course, it was an emergency - my sister had been struck by lightening - and we we're hauling ass to get there. But I believe it was in Memphis where we went to the Elvis Presley Burn Center and I swear I drove it in that time. Does that sound possible?

Very possible

The Med in Memphis is one of the best burn units in the country, believe it or not!!.. I in Illinois for a few days, pretty close to Terre Haute, In and drove home in 5 1/2 hours. Pick a date - please.

I am leaning toward 8/8- 8/10

My plan is to take SD and Anna to inlaws for the weekend, meet up with "Sarabernheart" and drive together onto Nashville. Since SD is still in TX with my SIL/BIL, then will be spending a week with my MIL/FIL, I think 7/25 will be too soon for her to go back on a trip. She finally admits to being homesick (only took about 6 weeks!)

I still need to double check with my MIL on whether this will work for them with their work schedule and all. AND it will depend if "SB" is available that weekend.

SaraB? Would 8/8 work for you?

I checked with my MIL today and she said either is fine

I'd still prefer Aug, just so SD gets a chance to be home for several weeks before we're off to her Grandparents again.

I am so looking forward to this!

Going to PM SB and see if she is available then too.

Hey, this sounds like SOOOO

much fun. I like the August dates better too. My boys have ball tournaments until the end of July. I did forget where in TN you are though.....I am in KY if anyone wants to meet up and ride together maybe?

How did I miss this?

I have no idea what or where but I'm in Illinois.

Dawn

stepwitch has a cabin on the lake she was

offering to one of the posters and it turned into a get away for all interested. She's in TN someplace. I think she said Memphis? I can't wait!

im in MO

maybe if u decide to go we can carpool?

Illinois eh?

I grew up in Illinois. Cabin is south of Brownsville and north of memphis. Not a bad drive at all, except for the southern Illinois troopers, that love to run radar.

Stepwitch
Thank you Disney for portraying a positive image on all stepmothers!!!!

I'm checking too..

On airfare! Yay!

I want to go!!!!

How many beds are there? I'm booked for the rest of the month but I think it would be rocking to see the faces of all you gals who have supported me through thick and thin. I've been so stressed out lately, I'm putting on weight and drinking wine like a fish, or better described as pouring it down my mouth like my body is a barrel. It's starting to look like one too.

Soooooooooooooooooooo what fun. Not the drinking, but getting together.

bed? Are you kidding?

Who's gonna sleep anyway!! For real there are two bedrooms, both which have full size beds. One has a sleeper daybed that also folds out. There are two futons in the living room that makes into full size beds. There is a fold out full size bed on the screened-in porch that we can bring into the cabin somewhere. I have a yukon too. Anyway, we can make space. I hope you can come. Wow, won't it be great.

Hotels?

Are there any hotels/motels nearby? If there are too many people, some might opt to get a motel room and just meet up.

Dawn

MMMMM......

Memphis is probably your best bet, but Jackson, TN is another option. I did see a bread and breakfeast in Brownsville. It looked really nice. I'm not sure of the name, though - Maybe you can find it by google. Let me know. I'm sure there will be plenty of room though.

Anybody from Maryland

Thanks

CRAP! Birthday Weekends for us!

YET another reason to HATE having kids. They get in the way of having a social life!

I missed this too...

What's going on?

A cabin? A weekend away? Where do I sign up? Who wants to pick me up from the airport?

Fly together from the Springs or DIA?

I'll get yall picked up.

Stepwitch

For me...

whichever is cheaper. Springs actually was cheaper than DIA for Memphis when I checked. But I would LOVE to have someone to fly with. Seriously.

stepwitch is speaking....

Ok, just got back from 3 nights at the cabin. Sooo relaxing, even spent one night all by myself (that was a real deserved break). This is what I did: 1.finished out the shower, hung paneling (yes, I do know how to use power equipment and hammer nails) 2. Fishing -caught several brim/crappie and the biggest dang catfish ever !!3. Had a fish fry. 4. Drank lots of beer (and I do prefer wine ladies (we have a winery down the road from my house, they have live band every Sunday afternoon)4. Watched movies. Yep, that's about it. Oh did I mention eat!! I love grilling, so food is one of my favorite things.

The bugs were not bad (thank god) and didn't see any wildlife except a bunny. Usually, you see alot of racoons, turkey and occasionly a deer or two. Ok, looks like weekend of august 8th. Are we really going to do this? I don't want to get my hopes up for yet again another let down.

We do not have phones in our cabin, so Internet high speed is not an option, but I get a pretty good signal with my iPhone, so we can use that as our source of Internet. Its just a little slow, because it uses edge technology there.

Ok, soooo who's in?

Stepwitch
Thank you Disney for portraying a positive image on all stepmothers!!!!

I agree who's in...

I am SERIUOSLY considering.

I need more specifics though.

What airport do us out of towners fly into? Do we need a rent a car or can someone pick us up? How many people are DEFINITELY going and will we all fit?????

PM me if need be.

Ya !!!!

Well, I will be there, I hope I won't be alone !!. Memphis Airport and yes I'll make sure you get picked up. No worries there !! Yes we will all fit !!! May be crowded, but we will manage. I have already posted the layout of the cabin, but I figure we will only use the cabin as a sleeping area anyway. YA!!!
