| NEW! 2008 Shrinkin' Vi's Trip Planning Thread!!
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

I'm going to book my airline flight when I get my refund processed from returning that $250 coat! That way one part of this is out of the way financially. Woot.

Ok, for me.. the best deal & only 1 stop to BWI arrives at 3pm in BWI. And looking through the higher priced ones, this is still the earliest.
If everyone else can coordinate to get there in the morning (flights I mean), then I'll look into flying in the night before. But people who are flying, see the times available to you and post, so we can compare. I also found a return flight on 19th at 5pm.

City: palm springs State: ca | Michelle,
I have a 9 hour flight minimum. I found one that arrives at the airport at 5pm (which leaves at 6am here...which to my body will be a 14 hour day because of the time change). When is the latest we can arrive on Friday? I will need to back at the airport Monday by noon ish...is that doable? I can take an extra day off...but should it be Thursday and take you up on your offer...or should it be Tuesday for travel? Help!!!

Well I'm in the same boat, my flights don't coordinate with what Michelle originally posted.
Maybe we'll just have to have a vi's party in the airport while we wait for everyone to get in ;)

Ok everyone... take a deep breath!!!
I just got off the phone w/ Ms. Jen and she has an absolutely FABULOUS idea that she is going to post about but it may solve issues about:
LOWER COST
PRIVATE ROOMS
EASE & CONVENIENCE OF TRAVEL FOR ALL
RELAXATION FOR ALL
Remember... the ultimate idea here was to get together. The whole Deep Creek location idea came about cuz' you all liked the pics from our trip... but maybe it is not the best/most convenient option. Now that she is "in the industry", she has info that she didn't back when we decided all this. & some of it is GOOD info!! FUN info!! INEXPENSIVE info!!
So let's read what she has to say & then make final decisions, k??
