Re: Who's going to Phoenix? 10-20-11

If the date had been picked before we bought our flights to Vegas, we probably would have booked Phoenix. The Pavilion is a bit of a drive from our place in the East Valley, but it would have been fun to host some of our Canadian parrothead friends for the weekend. Maybe I can convince Mrs wagon to ...

Re: Boston Bruins, why they should win the Cup.....

why they should win the Cup? Because they're not Vancouver (says the guy from Calgary)!!

I said if Boston won game 5, it would be over in 6, and if Vancouver won game 5 the series would go 7 games and the Bruins would squeak it out. Looks like it's got to go 7 now.

Re: If you don't think this is funny .....

Boy do I remember those days!! Our twin sons turned 24 today, but there was a time before they started to talk when their conversations were exactly like this. They would babble and yammer at each other and then take off together to do something. No one could understand what they were saying, but th...

Re: Caribbean Trip...

You're welcome. We'll be staying in a villa just a little up the hill from where the pic was taken, so we'll have the same view in March. The sunsets are amazing! No matter where you stay (I'd love to do Caneel some day), make sure you check out the St John forum. There is so much information and pe...

Re: Caribbean Trip...

Just gotta chime in here ... if you haven't booked yet, try looking at renting a villa. We're gonna be there for a week in March and have booked an amazing 2 bedroom villa in Virgin Grand Estates. Rented a bigger villa with 2 other couples a couple of years ago and had the vacation of a lifetime (wi...

Didn't hear of those places. We just snorkeled off Black Rock on Ka'anapali Beach. Saw a turtle (but apparently there were a few of them) and a 6 foot spotted eagle ray swam right underneath us.

Friends of ours recommended mile marker 14 south of Lahaina, but we never made it there.

I LOVE the Hula Grill in Waikiki, and I presume the one on Maui is the same caliber. :D Haven't been to the Hula Grill in Waikiki, but the one in Ka'anapali is great. The outdoor seating is in the sand looking out over the ocean. Food and music were great ... "A little three piece band playin'...

My wife and I just spent the last week of August in Maui and loved it, even though we're still partial to the Caribbean. We stayed in a 1 bedroom condo over in Kaanapali. We definitely "second" Mama's Fish House as a must do. We made it about 1/2 way down the road to Hana, but my passenger...

Try to eliminate the hockey sticks (7's), snowmen (8's), one-legged snowmen (9's) and moose (10's) and you'll do okay. Unfortunately our season is only about 6 months long so it's tough to get enough rounds in. Played down in Coeur d'Alene at the beginning of May, but won't get out again until next...
