It's time to start planning the 2nd Annual MRS LISA Lab Fest.
:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
So if all goes as planned, Lisa and Jason will be here that weekend and of course we will be having another lab fest at my house.
I'm starting this thread early so that those who missed the last one can hopefully make it to this one!

Hey, would a Northerner (travelling without Labs) be allowed to attend?

Ever since I saw this thread, I thought it would be a good reason to come down and look at some houses PLUS get to meet some new people and visit with some I already know!

I'm not 100% positive yet (I've checked flights and it looks like I can fly in on NWA for FREE!!!!!).

Can you recommend a decent (fairly cheap) hotel/motel nearby? I'll be making the final decision within the next week.

Thanks and if all goes well, I might be seeing you guys soon!

I have a VERY important question about my possible trip.

Are there any bridges between the airport and your place??? I don't mind the small over the road ones, but the HUGE bridges that go up and over - well, just call me chicken.

Ask poor Heather - I houded her about bridges from the airport to her place - she even looked some up online for me just so I could head to her place last summer!

Thanks!!!!

Kathy, Don't worry. You won't have to go over any HUGE bridges from the airport to my house. There's not very many in Charlotte anyway. :D

ZenCat
09-26-2006, 02:05 PM
Kathy, both my kids have "Bridge Issues" too. Neither of them (and my daughter drove down here from CT with Grip and the cats) have noticed any bridges of consequence ;)

There are hotels all over the place here. Try looking on expedia.com and you'll be able to get side by side price quotes.

Check out this site for hotels near Concord Mills Mall and Becky's home.

http://www.roadsideamerica.com/hotels-motels/hotels/us-nc-concord.html

Unless you are near Lake Norman or Lake Wylie, then you don't have to worry about bridges around here. Hope you can make it.

HunterBoozer
09-27-2006, 06:23 PM
Thanks for all the info everyone!

I was just telling Crystal that I think I've found a great deal on United - airfare/hotel/car - all for 1 price and its near the Speedway (about 10 min. from there - Crystal - I'll be looking at your link in a minute)!

Its looking good!! :) :)

Hey, I've got to ask. What is GOING on in your area that weekend (other than the LabFest & Lisa coming to town)????? Do you know how many hotels have NO VACANCIES during that weekend????

At least I've got the package deal going on for me! :)

I have no clue. The big race is October 14.
What hotel are you looking at?

HunterBoozer
09-28-2006, 09:04 AM
Look out NC - this Northerner is heading your way! WHOO HOOO! I just had my mini-vacation approved (for the end of October in ADDITION to next week) so I'm booking my trip today!

Becky, the places that have no vacancies are: Comfort Suites, Holiday Inn Express, Sleep Inn, and Wingate Inn. Hampton Inn wans $169/night and SpringHill Suites wants $159/night - just a bit too pricey for me. I only really need a bed & a bathroom/shower.

The package deal through United is offering the Ramada Inn on Equipment Dr.(looks like its about 20 min. from you). Is that a decent area?

Equipment Dr. is off of Suger Creek Rd. So to answer your question .... no.:hmm:

D@mn! That was the other street United was offering hotels on, Sugar Creek. That's probably why the price was really cheap (included air/hotel/car).

I think you'll be ok. Probably won't be shot at or anything;) I would be comfortable staying there, but I doubt my wife would be happy at that location.

I think we'll need Becky's cell # on speed dial. Two northerner's driving around NC (OK, well, at least the highway is a straight shot!).

Have you checked out the flight info I sent you? We could even car pool to the airport (you could leave your car at my house).

Only a few more weeks!!!!!!

I can't believe I actually finally (probably) get to go to my first labfest. I've never met anyone from the board. :( It will just be Jake and I though. It would be nuts to drive 4 hours home, pick up Grace, drive 4 1/2 hours to Charlotte, drive 4 1/2 hours back home to drop Grace off, then 4 hours back to school lol. It's only about 2 hours from here.

I'll be staying with my aunt when I'm there and they have a chocolate who I wanna say is maybe 6 months or so now...maybe a little older, can't remember. They may be interested in coming with me and bringing him if there's room. Let me know and I'll find out from them.

Oh, great! THANKS! :D He has a bit of a napoleon complex but he loves to play with other dogs, especially labs!

I just checked out the directions and it's 100 miles shorter to come from Charlottesville then from the beach so I can definitely can come (after I clear it with work this week! ;) )!! I'm really excited and I hope I can come! It's only 4 hours so I can make it there and back easily or perhaps stay in a hotel.

David found out last night he has a possibility of going down to SC for field training, but HOPEFULLY that isn't the case. I'm not sure when he finds out if his group is going or not, but hopefully in the next week, I assume? I believe this is the only problem we can forsee. I hope not though, because I REALLY want to go and I'll cry if I can't. :D

David found out last night he has a possibility of going down to SC for field training, but HOPEFULLY that isn't the case. I'm not sure when he finds out if his group is going or not, but hopefully in the next week, I assume? I believe this is the only problem we can forsee. I hope not though, because I REALLY want to go and I'll cry if I can't. :D
I really hope you can go!!! I'll keepmy fingers crossed for ya!!!

I really hope he doesn't have to go to SC. I *could* go by myself, but I HATE driving in NC, lol...so I don't trust myself to drive 2-3 hours alone each way, lol. David is from NC, Charlotte actually, so he knows his way around.

I just wish I could bring my boys - they'd have such a blast (I wonder if I could sneak them on the plane? Do you think anyone would notice??? ;) )!

I'm working on being there really hard. I might have to come in the RV though since we have to be in Bryson City first thing Sunday morning and we might head that way afterwords and camp close to it.

I would love to come to this...& it might be possible...I can't bring dogs but I would love the party!! I have Delta buddy passes so it might happen...just might need some help w/hotels & transportation...but, this sounds so fun...:)

I'd love to meet you all!!:D

I'm thinking about it..very seriously...
I need a vacation (even if it's a little one)...& I have Buddy passes!

Can you come???

Who else is going from Canada? That would be great fun. Short time but good time!!

No I can't afford to fly and it's a bit too far to drive (again!) But you'll have the best time if you can arrange it. It sounds like a great bunch of people will be there.

well, if I go I'll keep you in mind b/c those buddy passes are $100 US return anywhere in the continental US...the only drag is that there are only so many issued/year & of course a person would want to use one when on a longer vacation & I can go 200 miles away or 2000miles away for the same price...that's the only down side to those passes...but I'm going to check to see about them b/c it's nearing the end of the year & if there are a few left, it wouldn't matter b/c I'm going nowhere in Nov or Dec & then they renew themselves in Jan....

Sooo...you just never know!! Gotta love Delta Airlines:D (& Uncle Paul, of course!)

Does Delta have a partnership with United? That's who I booked on and I got a great deal with them (air/car/hotel). SO much cheaper than if I had booked them separately.

I have to make sure I empty my memory card - I have a feeling I'm going to be taking lots of pics!

Thanks Becky! I will borrow one of your boys for the day! :)
