maybe you could spray lemon juice in your eyes upon departing for the venue, just to enhance your upbeat, positive mood some more?

I thought it was a little low based on how you used to post. :lol: I know all about the busy thing. Hopefully, I'll be able to participate in this thread a lot. It really helps that I'll be able to go this year.

what airport is closest?!? i have NEVER been to Wisconsin!!!! :o :o :lol:
If staying in Janesville.....try flying into Madison. Otherwise, Milwaukee.
How far is Janesville from Madison? i want to do that bus thing! it sounds like FUN!!!!!!!!!! 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
Janesville is about 40 minutes from Madison. Easy drive - right down the expressway.

If you aren't staying in Janesville, fly into Milwaukee (usually a bit cheaper as well). But, whatever you do, DON'T fly into Chicago!! It is a hassle to get out of there on a good day!

yes, unless you take a bus to Janesville or Madison from one of the Chicago airports. Van Galder bus service has regular routes that will transport you from the Chicago airport to Madison, Janesville, and a few other areas.

Time to wake up and get the Alpine Machine running again!

Good luck on Monday to everyone. Tickets seem to be harder to come by every year, regardless of price.

Anyway, it is all worth every penny, just keep saving. :pirate: :pirate: :pirate:

Things to do before I die

meet a Balcony Girl :wink:

the finance gods will determine, along with basketball and volleyball camp schedules, softball schedule etc, etc etc. But since we moved back to the midwest we have only missed Alpine for two weddings and closing on our new house
