NA NA NA NA NAAAAA NAH… :-D
My count down has begun! Only eighteen days left until I begin my journey!
What journey? (You ask, intensely interested.)
My road trip to see SEEDSOWER! We will be taking a side trip to New York too.
Why New York? (You ask, with intense interest.)
To visit the Xanga team of course… and to do what else? Well we don’t know yet. I am sure we will find something, suggestions are being taken.
I don’t know if I am more excited to visit the Amish community and barns and land around Beth’s greenhouse, or to wander the BIG city. Isn’t it wonderful that we get to do it ALL!
Are you doing anything BIg this summer that your excited about?

Hey! How cool that you will get to meet the lovely Seedsower in person! I hear there’s a whole pack of fools in Rochester, NY! Maybe you can swing by there. Our big plans for summer are that we are going to Norway with friends. I haven’t been, and I hear it is beautiful! We will be staying in a lovely summer house on an island. We are also going to Ireland in November. Pretty cool, huh?
@DanishDoll - Extremly cool!!! Hope your taking the camera!
I expect lots of pictures from both of you! Try to get the xanga team to do something exceptionally silly for a picture. I already did my big exciting thing for the summer. Now I have to find a job.
Hey! We;re going to Amish country too, although we’ll be there after you so please leave it one piece!
You should stop and visit my favorite battlefield on the way.
oh you sound so excited! amish people – haha – i remember the whole 6 fingers thing now…
Considering Summer is still four months away, I’ll think about it!
I am extremely envious though and wish it were me you were visiting!
(((HUGS)))
Wow! sounds so exciting, esp the NY part.
My Mom and the rest of the my family live in NY and I wish that we could get there this year but high gas prices will probably keep us home.
Have a great time.
I am hoping to have a better camera to take by then. We have an old dinosaur which hardly holds a charge, and has no zoom!
Fantastic. I look forward to the photos and facts, the embellishments, the lies and the gossip.

I AM SO JEALOUS! (When are you coming to visit me?)
Big plans…hmmm…my Mom is coming for my granddaughter’s birthday at the end of June and I am driving her back to Delaware to visit my sister . . .oh! AND I’m going to Montreal for the 4th of July – BIG fireworks viewed from my friend’s 18th foor balcony !!!!! AND I get to take my granddaughter on a road trip to my best friend’s house (Connectucut) in August. YEAH!
You are going to have so much fun! Enjoy!
Sandra, a mere 4 hours, 20 minutes (239 miles) from Rochester . . . .
Me?…No. But deleriously happy
for you!!! Take lots of pictures and ENJOY yourself!!!
I’m so jealous that you are getting to meet seedsower. My day will come. I hope you have a really fun visit!
Very neat! And a picture of those behind the scenes at Xanga would be neat!
Good to see you so excited!!
No big plans, just some time off in July. Planning to visit our city a little bit over the summer and see some things in our own backyard that we just alwasy seems to overlook!
RYC: Thanks, guess I was getting all mushy there for a sec….LOL
I’m jealous!!! I hope you and Beth have a blast and take eleventy billion pics!
have fun. make sure you dont were red or blue on the wrong blocks. those ganstaz are for real yo!
Cool!! It amazes me when xanga people meet in real life. Have a great trip. And take lots of extra money for the Amish country, sometimes it is amazing what you’ll come across.
First… Fourth of July I should be visiting my friend in Louisville (the one who just had the baby) THEN for my birthday I’m going to Colorado to visit my brother and mom and the rest of my family who live out there!!! THEN my boyz will come home, and we’ll have a few weeks until school starts!
you have to go see the space that was the twin towers and Shaltz? toy store and everything! my son and wife have gone 2 years in a row now but will go to Cancun this june
Not this summer. I’m still paying for the move. Maybe this November…Jacksonville…maybe.
I would like to go with you! LOL!
Ask the Xanga team to let us be able to the IP address at the same time it blocks a username. That would be so cool (for a lot of us who are troubled by nosy people).
everyone should experience new york city ! BON VOYAGE !
@whytwolf - Keep spending most our life’s livin’ in the Amish paradise. : )
How wonderful!!! I would be more thrilled about seeing seedsowers and all around her place!!! But I lived in a city before and I am much more of a country gal!!! You will have a wonderful time wherever you go together!!! I know you both will have LOTS of pictures to share and I cannot wait to see these!!!
Happy trails
So very very very jealous of you! Did I mention I am jealous of you?
Excellent road trip idea. =)
Have a good time.
MOVING!!!!!
Have a great trip
What great plans!Hope you have a SMASHING TIME BABY(little English Austin Powersy reference)!Bring back loads of piccys


@kevrach - YOU know I will BABY!
Big? Funny you should mention big this being the day that Trusty is meeting with her plastic surgeon.
We really don’t have anything big planned, actually nothing planned at all. Got a few ideas of things to do, more like little benchmarks of recovery then plans, I am more then a little behind on my planning this year.
You Lucky Dawgs…..just stock up on salsa before you get to NYC…hahahaha……are the Hubbies and kids going or is it a girl trip? I have two nieces getting married in October so I’m going to have to get all my excitement at home this summer…..that’s not a bad thing either…..
@mlbncsga - Just a girl trip!
You could always stop for lunch in detroit and meet me for lunch. I know you are in Detroit semi-often though, so if not this time, maybe another….
No, not me. My big India trip went bust. So now its to physical therapy and around for me. Have a great time wherever you go.
I made you a picture
Cause I know you dig doors
I’m so happy for you. We love our Beth and she lives in a wonderful area. I’m not sure where you live or what direction you will be traveling in but if you go by the Rochester area off of I 90, give us a holler..
NY is on my list of places to get before I expire. (My due date for expiration is years away I hope!)
You have a wonderful time. Can’t wait to read your posts. – Mary
You are taking a side trip to NY huh… it’s a shame we live on the other side of NY.. the side opposite te side you are visiting. Where do you live again… Now I have to go find that piece of paper… wait right here….
Ok am back… Now plotting a course from angi’s house to seedsowers house via aloysius_son’s cabin… Hang on… I’ll be right back again…
How exciting for you!!!!! We want pics hey!!!
@ZSA_MD - OH That is a bummer! Will you be able to switch it to another time?!
@Aloysius_son - WOW that seems like a long way! lol Let me do some adjusting! Ummm I am going to delete it for now though… I don’t want any nutcase knowing how to get to my house… well nutcases that aren’t us!
Well, I went on a cruise… I think that was the highlight of ‘How I Spent My Summer Vacation’ for this year!
I hope you have a great time!
I feel so darn special! You have 45 comments and you’re tracking me down to ask me why I’m not posting? And for the record, I did see The World’s Fastest Indian a couple years ago and loved it. (I think I did comment that to you, but maybe you missed it in all your popularity.
) And as for not posting — you’re right, I don’t think I have anything amazing to say, but I’ll try harder tomorrow!
a reminder for your trip to “the big city” then. go check out jackson hole burgers. i just blogged about my own continued search for the greatest burger
i wish i knew my grandparents more. i only met my grandmas twice and my grandpas once
oh well, i hope you have a good trip. i got LA and san diego in july. can’t wait
ooh exciting!
Wow!! I want to see pictures of the two of you with the Xanga team. Also, if you can use your charm to get me Xanga Life for free, I’ll owe you two BIGTIME!
As for me, nothing special. Just flying away to Somewhere In Asia again. Will take door pics, just for you. Oh, oh, just remembered. There is also the Montreal Jazz Festival. Now, that is exciting!
i want to go!
I am so excited!!!! I get giddy thinking about it!
I WANNA GO TOO
woohoo!
can’t wait for the pics
Um, New York is a pretty big state – where exactly are you going? The City? Cuz you know *I* am in NY, too…
Think this summer the kids are coming to visit us. They can spend the gas money this time. Some will be here around the fourth of July, another in late June or later August, and another in August sometime. Still need dates but they have to put in for their vacations yet. I might get to New England to see my Mother, but usually save that travel expense till she needs my assistance for something. Maybe I can convince her to come here too. Otherwise think our summer plans are on the golf course, evening picnics on the boat in one of the coves on the lake, and maybe two or three of the local state parks with the motor home. Saving up for big plans next summer.
Bon voyage.
Exciting during the summer………….no. Work and class, and MAYBE an occassional camping trip or going fishing, that’s about it. Enjoy your trip, take lots of pics, and do everything that you want!
