Don't freak out--nobody is scheduling yout vacation for you on a minute by minute basis. We're just collecting ideas and seeing how we might be able to get them done if that's what we/you choose to do.

[Ashley]: Nice draft Dips. Was there a couple rounds of Golf omitted?
Report Abuse
RE: Golf--yes...big deficiency there. We need a negotiating posture that offers another opportunity for the girls to be free from watching the littler kids.

Looks great. If we have resort access, Christie and I would like to challenge someone for tennis? I see spa on there?! Is that in addition to our wine tasting at the Biltmore?
Report Abuse
Just thinking if the men want more golf...we should get wine tasting and a spa day!

Rafting: Should I make a reservation on Monday for all of us or no?
Riding: That's on Wed (unless we move it of course). Is anybody interested? We probably need to call ahead.
Segway Tours: Who is in on that?

C'mon people...

Rafting - looks good, especially if we could get a parent/child team in 8 kayaks.
Riding - will be tough after the 15 minutes of HotMonkeyLoveMaking Tuesday night!
Segway tours - will exclude kids with the age/weight limitations. Let's caucus on this one Saturday upon arrival.

I'm not sure what we are signing up for, rafting wise. A float trip? or white water? We have plenty of floating stuff at the house (Canoe, pontoon boat, lake). White water will rule out the little ones won't it?
Women could do pedicures and wine tasting the same day. Guys could get their two rounds of golf in and we can get lots of together time in too.

Realty lady says we aren't going to want to leave the house. We will have plenty of parrot bay and scrabble. May not need to.

We are up for anything. If we do the rafting I think we should do the one we could all do (floating trip) otherwise it is 8 and up.

As long a some golf is o the schedule, then that's all I need. Even the 15 minutes of Hot Monkey Lovemaking is negociable if the tee time is good enough. By the way, anybody else notice that Burger has been practicing?
