Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010
Been a while since I posted, but so excited for another buffett show, but first at Alpine. My flight leaves NY at 9am arrive in Chicago at 10....and then its off to Lake Geneva where I can't wait to meet some of you.
I am staying at Grand Geneva resort, anyone else on here staying there?
Will be at Hemingway's Friday night and pre partying there on Saturday!
Been a crazy few weeks of work and moving.....this is the a perfect time for some fun!
FINS UP!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010
I'm going by myself tomorrow, and not even sure I'm going on Saturday. However, I have a 12 pack of beer, two bottles of wine, makings for Mary's, and makings for Rita's. I think there's a good possibility I have a drinking problem!
Throw in some cheese curds, triscuits, and almonds, and I won't starve either. And away I go!
Cheers!

Hey Tiki -
Going to wear your shirt? I almost bought one but chickened out at the last minute! I'll be looking for you on Saturday. I'll have my nametag on and my shirt that says "Birds of a Feather Party Together" with big parrots on the back. Can't wait!

I was just thinking of your comment and laughing as I was cutting open one of my kids juice bags to mix with coconut rum because I wanted a fruity rum drink so much. It's not that bad actually!!!gumbo gal wrote: I think there's a good possibility I have a drinking problem!

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010
Stayed up late last night to make 200 jello shots and premix 4 liters of Bushwhackers. Just have to slice the 12# of tenderloin I grilled up earlier, put some fuel in the blender, make some wardrobe decisions, and I think I'm set!!!!!

Some... only pretend, but me...
I just want to live happily ever after, every now and then.....

Did you cat's check out the weather? oh, super super duper. (80's and thunderstorms)
I will be N/A this year, got a bun in the oven.
On the plus side, I'll actually remember the show!
On the minus side, I may not have tolerance for the drunken yahoos.
aka: my friends.

Oh yeah... if anyone wants to book last minute, I cancelled 1 room with 2 beds for Saturday night at the luxurious Thomas Motel in Elkhorn...

There is a bus that goes from the Two Seasons Bowl next door, to the concert, for "$33 including beer and wine coolers until they run out." I don't know whether they still have space, but you could find out.

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010
Anyone else finding it exceedingly difficult to work today?
I need a little help... we have a small group of six pholks going and I am in charge of brewing and bringing the punch drink with alcohol laden fruit in it for snacking...
Anyone have any good punch recipes?
Thanks for the help!
