jholt Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 We are leaving Sunday morning bright and early and headed to Williamsburg for 3 days. All we have done so far is get groceries and snax for the trip. I also brought the suit cases up from the basement 2 days ago but they are still sitting in the living room, just one more flight of stairs to the bedroom to pack them up. I'm getting pretty excited about going. Can't wait for the sun, sand, and plastic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steve N Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I spent the afternoon cleaning the kitchen and cleaning out the car. Tomorrow I'll do laundry and mow the lawn, then we'll pack when Mandie gets home from work, and hit the road first thing Monday morning. We plan to spend the afternoon at the Air Force Museum, then stop somewhere in ohio for the night, and get into VA Beach by Tuesday evening. I still have a couple of Super Soakers in my trunk that we bought for the Atlanta Nats...maybe I'll finally get to use 'em this year! SN Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Grey Ghost 531 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Stuff's laid out and ready to be packed. I had to come in to work today to get my thumb drive that I have the entry form on so I can fill them out and print them tonight. I'll be leaving tomorrow morning and hitting Aberdeen and the Udvar Hazy on the way down. I'm lucky I took the couple of hour long dry window yesterday and mowed the lawn. It's been raining steadily since about 3:00pm yesterday. My wife said she would mow while I'm out, but I expect that I'll have a hay field waiting for me when I get back. See you all down there!

kap64 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I'm about half way ready. Still have lots to do, laundry one more time, load the car, wash the dogs. I have the truck gassed up, grass cut, and ebay stuff sold to provide the cashflow. I'm leaving after work Tuesday, unfortunately, without any completed models.

I plan on collapsing into bed upon arrival Wednesday evening, and seeing how early I get moving on Thursday. It will also depend on how much finish work I have to do on my models upon arrival...
