Oh Bek you should totally try and come up for some of the northern goodness that we regularly have up here
Not only would it be easier for you to come up instead of the 50 or so of us come down but I garantee you'll have one of the best times of your life!!!!!! Oh and all you'd need to worry about is actually getting yourself here........places to stay and stuff would be covered I think you should seriously consider it........Oh and so should Gidg and Ezz Oh Oh or even better come up for spring WildFire!!!!!!!!!! June 7th to the 10th make travel arrangements now people!!!!!!! My ADD makes it so that.....Ooooo SHINY.....wanna go ride bikes....wait....where am I.....

Bek, I'd offer you a ride to DE, but you're a wee bit out of my way.
You can bum a ride with me for WildFire, though. I'm pretty sure I'm going.

$245's not so bad...you might find cheaper tickets going to JFK or EWR.
Bek, you should totally come!

oh add another $75 to that for admission That covers four days of camping plus three kick-ass meals a day!!!!!

I'll even volunteer to make sure your picked up at the airport! For a plane ticket: $245.00
For entrance: $75.00
Being at WildFire: Priceless

I'm most assuredly overdue for lots of things...and if you'd just come and steal me away, then I'd be glad to take the time to catch up!!!
I'll just have to see how the fundage looks when the summer gets here...I really do need to get away for a while...not been anywhere since my daughter was quite small and then I had to babysit my own plus everyone else's kids while I was there...(mountains)!!!
Yep...Mama needs a break!!!

Ela, believe it or not but I found a flight cheaper to boston then NY.
Yes Loki, I'm really thinking about it. I figure that I can actually take a complete week (2 weekends) or more and see what kind of trouble that I can get into. It also depends on if Moondoggie gets transfered to Georgia or not. Since I've never been to the East Coast, it would be interesting to do a little traveling.

Don't feel to bad, Gidg...I've never been to the west coast, either...but if you make it out here and don't get by to see me in one way or the other, then I'll...I'll...
What will I do???
