Vacation Plans?

[AtLast]

Do you have anything planned for a get away trip any time soon? Going to visit family (which includes who we view as family)? Driving?, Flying? How long has it been since you could go on a vacation?

Now that it has warmed up, I hope to do some RV road trips and camping, but these will all be for just a few days at a time here and there. Hopefully, I'll be in Bodega Bay by the end of next week walking the beach and having some of the fish n' chips there I love.

[Soft*Silver]

well, I am actually going to go to San Diago with a friend of mine. He is driving out there to see his mom and sister and doesnt want to go alone and I am the only person who doesnt work that he knows so come fall, if I am ok health wise, I get to go to California. MY SSDI will be in and I will have money to travel so it will be fun to go visit. I will get to see the grand canyon which I never got to see before. If I time it right, I can even get dropped off on the way back to the reunion!

San Francisco/ Oakland

Portland

Alabama

The Keys

Little Rock

Ohio

[AtLast]

WOW!!! Some Planeteers will be in California!!! Shit- da'yam!!!

[DapperButch]

I go to the beach every holiday weekend for about 4 days (Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day) and the beach other weekends too, throughout the summer. But, I always do this.

THIS year I (we) would really like to do some serious hiking, ziplining, and other more active things on a larger scale than in the past. Combining this with beautiful views including nice, twisty backroads for scenic driving would be perfect! If people have ideas of places to hit on the East coast for any of these activities, I am all ears! Seriously.

I also hope to head to Atlanta, Georgia to attend the WPATH symposium this year in September, but still need to find out about costs.

You're gonna drive right past me without stopping again aren't you? Sheesh... *teehee*

[dixie]

Not sure what all vacation plans I have this year.

Atlanta

Daytona

Little Rock

and then a few other small mini-breaks thrown in... :)

[Apocalipstic]

Not sure either, but I need to get to LA to see my sister and want to visit the beach and maybe even Little Rock.

I need the go to the beach baaaaad!

[DomnNC]

Vacation? What's that? lol

[Gráinne]

Hopefully a car trip to South Dakota/Wyoming with the kiddos..and I live in Little Rock, so that's not a vacation :D

[turasultana]

I keep thinking Morocco or Croatia this year. But I need to figure out who would babysit the six furry kids before I make plans.

I was contract for a few years with no paid days, this year I have 20 business days I can take off and have got to go SOMEWHERE! :)

[MsTinkerbelly]

Easter week we are renting a house on Catalina island and taking the child and her friend...later in the year Italy, just us two.

[Strappie]

Well I just got back from Austin TEXAS.... I'm doing a few wknd get a way's this summer. Nothing big planned as of yet, however that could change. I like being a free bird sometimes! lol


And for sure.......



Little Rock, here I come!!

[Waldo]

In 15 hours (Yes, I'm counting) I'm leaving for Mexico. Renting a beach house for the week on the gulf coast of the Yucatan peninsula.

In June I have two work trips which I'll likely put some personal vacation around. First is Barcelona. I love, love, love, love Barcelona. I'll probably head over to Lisbon before or after. Then a couple weeks later there is a trip to Singapore. That's still up in the air, but I'd love to make a stop in Hong Kong or Manila on the way back.

There will be another vacation at some point in the fall. That will no doubt include some beach time.

[Waldo]

There, I fixed it. :)

One has to wonder which you'd choose if there could only be one...

But both are on the calendar.

[Medusa]

There is a distinct possibility I will be heading to Poland for work some time in the next 6 months.

Also on my calendar is Portland, several smaller cities like Memphis, Eureka Springs and Dallas, and later this year a sweet weekend in the mountains of Tennessee.

Since my NC mountains are close to those TN mountains, you better tell me when you're around so I can come hug you. :D

[Luv]

Goin up tp Palmdale in June to see relatives,and hopefully to littlerock in the fall

[Waldo]

I am squinting at you, KP.

Duh. I choose both.

And also, don't forget to chat with the nice young men carrying Machine Guns at the check points. They love that. Especially if your Spanish is not good.

I'll give them your best.

[AtLast]

I plan on growing a mega garden this year, so no travel until LR in the fall except Seattle

5 chickens + 3 dogs = Traveling is more complicated!

I hear you! This has a lot to do with my doing mini-vacations. At $35/day, getting a house/pet sitter is expensive.

[adorable]

I'm leaving Monday for FL. I can't wait. Really. I have no patience for this waiting stuff. Dallas and NYC in June. Hopefully FL again before the end of the year...

[Ciaran]

Ten days back in my home of Northern Ireland in the later part of this month.

West Coast USA for 9 days in late June ... starting off in San Diego and finishing in San Francisco but not 100% sure how my itinerary will work out inbetween.

Manila, Philippines in early Oct and onwards to Little Rock and then stay in States for a further week but not sure where yet.

Other than that, a few weekend trips back to Belfast to visit friends and family and, if I can find someone to go with, maybe a continental European city in mid-summer.

I'm reasonably fortunate as, especially by US standards, I get very good paid leave and, here in Europe, we get much more generous public holidays. Added to that, London is a major transport hub so easy to travel from.

[Jaques]

late May, camping with my missus in lovely Dorset on the farm we enjoy so much for its quietness and camping again in late June in Cornwall, near to where King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table were supposedly.......definately making a return to the Eden Project we have visited before and the outdoors Minnack Theatre on the edge of the ocean built in the l930's by the bare hands of a wonderful lady.........Rowena Cade, humping boulders and sand up from the beach there...........

That's the weekend that I will be in San Diego. I'll be in San Francisco the following week. Just don't know where I'll be in between !

I've been to CA often although not for almost 18 months now so looking forward to returning :)

[PumaJ]

I don't have any "long" as in many days type of plans. Due to the work I do, I have the entire summer off:-) So, far though, I have only one long weekend trip planned. That one is to go to Columbus, OH in June to see my "younger Femme sister", Johnny Weir, skate in the Skate for Hope (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Skate-for-Hope/246528927691) ice show. The show is a fund raiser for breast cancer support and research.

That is also the weekend of Gay Pride in Columbus:-) There will be a good many of Johnny's fans converging on the city. Most of us know each other via FB, and some of us have met before at other shows. Quite a few of us are Queer, and all who aren't are total allies. I expect that we will being going dancing at one of the Queer clubs the night before the show.

Other than that, I plan to spend a lot of time doing some projects in my back yard. Maybe a trip to Sun Valley, ID, if Johnny skates there again this summer.

Yeah, yeah...I admit that I am a fiend over Johnny Weir. Good interview here: YouTube - Facetime With Jeanne Beker - Johnny Weir Pt.1. I have been a fan of figure skating in general for a really long time and fan of Johnny for about 5 years. His ability and style of skating is completely unique. The way in which he melds his physical masculine strength with his feminine sensibilities on the ice reminds me of the style of Rudolph Nureyev's dancing. This last year in particular, having taken it off from competing, Johnny has been revealing more of his depth as a brilliant creative genius and totally fabulous Femme gay guy. The fact that I've had the opportunity to talk with him a couple of times, once being a very intense conversation about certain things we share related to our Queerness, has only served to endear him to me more. The second season of his show "Be Good Johnny Weir" will be airing on Logo TV (http://www.logotv.com/shows/be_good_johnny_weir/series.jhtml) starting this summer, I think. Right now, episodes from season one are being shown. The show was originally on the Sundance channel. The documentary about Johnny, "Pop Star on Ice" is the first episode in season one.

[scootebaby]

The only definite plans we have are going to the Bahamas in June. I won/earned an award from my company--they are sending me and 1 person there for 5 days,so we are paying to take the boys with us...hopefully we will take a weekend trip to the keys,maybe back to sanibel...there are so many cool places right here in florida..we are still discussing the reunion but nothing definite yet

[DapperButch]

Not sure either, but I need to get to LA to see my sister and want to visit the beach and maybe even Little Rock.

I need the go to the beach baaaaad!


Yes, that's the other thing I hope to be doing...visiting my sister in L.A.!

[betenoire]

I'm going to New Orleans either in October or November or December.

I initially wanted to go in October, but I just found out that if I go from late November through early January I can get a pretty hefty discount from the hotel chain that my new job is at. (We're talking like $50 a night for a $200 room) (Mind you, the discount is pretty sweet the rest of the year, but it's twice as sweet from November-January)

So November/December is looking pretty sweet right now.

I haven't been "on vacation" since I went to San Diego in 2006. It's fucking time.

[cinderella]

My papi's visit end of May for his birthday - yay!! Lot's of planning to do, can't wait!! :)

[moxie]

I would love to go on vacation. Haven't been on one since I went to Portland in 2001.

But...will not be in the cards anytime soon. Moving this summer and cannot take any of my 20+ days off from the new job for 6 months after I start (boooooooo!). I do have a conference I will have to attend this fall, not sure which one "the Man" is going to send me to, hopefully somewhere warm.

Well, at least your "Man" is sending you somewhere. I have to use vacation time and pay for my own conferences to keep up my social work license in order to do "the Mans" work! :mad:

[AtLast]

Ciaran, late June will be great time to visit San Francisco. The weekend of June 25 -26th is Pride Weekend (http://www.sfpride.org/) there.

And we all ought to meet up for SF Pride! Plus,

It would be so great to see folks from the site at SF Pride. Vacation in and of itself!!!

[Starbuck]

This coming week, I'm going to Houston to see Duran Duran in concert and do some sight seeing with my gf, I can't wait!

Some time this summer I'm lucky enough to take three more trips:
1: Chicago with one of my best friends
2: Las Vegas with my gf
3: Missouri to my timeshare with another friend

I guess you could call me a traveling fiend.

[Ciaran]

I loved Duran Duran first time around (I was very young) and would love to see them in concert. Didn't know that they were big across the pond - always thought that they just had a fanbase in the UK.

[JAGG]

I'm going to Sidney Australia in July. That's the only trip I have tickets for so far this year. But I'm going to Key West in May, and as soon as I finish this last house I'm working on I'm taking a few days off, and going to New Orleans. That's all that's on my radar right now.

[Oiler41]

Known At This time:

St. Louis in May for Memorial Day weekend
Provincetown, in September
Little Rock in October
Perhaps Mississippi Gulf Coast in November
St. Louis in December

I'd like to slip in there somewhere a trip to Gatlinburg, but I'm not sure yet when!

Duran Duran was very popular here in the Philippines during the 80's but I prefer Spandau Ballet. Actually, I've got a very big poster of Tony Hadley in my room during those times :)

[MysticOceansFL]

Hoepfully going to SD Cali in late May of this year if nothing comes up or if it does Go to Disney World in Orlando.

[Glenn]

Actually, I'm staying home again. I have a well-stocked lagoon across the road, a place to camp on, and a beach to swim in. That's all I need! ;)

[Venus007]

In July I am taking my honey lamb and her parents (they are 90 and 86) on a tour of Detroit, MI and South Bend, IN for 10 days. HL's dad LOVES cars and so we are starting in South Bend (my home town) to visit the Studebaker museum as well as the Avanti museum and probably to meet my mom in the process (eeek!)

Then on to Detroit (where I lived for 20 years) to take a tour of the auto plants, go to the Henry Ford Museum and see the many many car attractions there. I love cars too so I have the great pleasure of hosting the rambling and organizing the festivities. I am very excited about it.

This is the first time I have introduced someone I have dated to my mom and certainly the first time I have introduced her parents. It feels like a big step.
I am really looking forward to showing my HL around my home town to see where I grew up. Also while we are there I am going to be overseeing the replacement of my grandma's headstone (she raised me ) and that will be a wonderful thing as currently there is a tiny marker and after the visit there will be a proper headstone.

We are driving from Houston, TX up to the north-lands, it should be an adventure.

[AtLast]

I hope I get some good fishing in this year. I started fly fishing a couple of years ago and love it- but need to practice! Ocean salmon season began here this past week. Planning to do some of that. And I'll fish on my camping trips. Since it has warmed up, I am thinking of taking that trip to Bodega Bay in a couple of weeks.

[chefhottie25]

i am visiting the san francisco bay area in mid may. i am very excited about it. there are so many great restaurants that i have to check out while i am there.

AtLastHome, I've been invited down to S.F. that weekend for the reunion at Maud's.

MAUD'S REUNION 2011 (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=113059352106235)
Saturday, June 25, 2011
12:00pm – 6:00pm
Finnegan’s Wake (old Maud’s)
937 Cole Street & Carl Street
San Francisco, CA 9411

I'm not sure, yet, if I'll be going, though the whole weekend looks like it will be a fun one.

[Sweet_Amor_Taino]

I am also looking forward to sharing more time with you and enjoying your space. I will create a beautiful garden for you, One that will remind you of my affection and care I feel for you.
My papi's visit end of May for his birthday - yay!! Lot's of planning to do, can't wait!! :)

Vacation? What's a vacation? "All work and no play makes for a very dull boy." (My grandmother always said that to me. I am sure it is a quote but I don't know from where.)

[Ciaran]

i am visiting the san francisco bay area in mid may. i am very excited about it. there are so many great restaurants that i have to check out while i am there.

The one restaurant I visited in San Francisco that was particularly good was Absinthe. On my next visit to the Bay Area in June, we are going to Chez Panisse which, I'm told, is also very good.

You'll love Chez Panisse. I think I still have a couple of menus from when I was able to visit. I've been a fan of Alice Waters for about 20 years. It's amazing to be able to dine on the food created by legends.

If we ever get to NOLA, Cafe Bayonne is on my list. Love Susan Spicer too!

Any time off for the girl has been deemed to parental visits. Hopefully, one day ( before I am too crotchety to enjoy it..LOL ) we will be able to take a real vacation just for ourselves. I am always so grateful for any time we get to just "get away", even if it is only for a night. It helps us re-connect in a world that often robs us of our "quality time".

[durrrrrrrr]

Puerto Rico

[Peach]

Our vacation plans are next winter, Hawaii, then Philly in May, and once we have saved more money, Scotland and Ireland. At least thats what we HOPE to do, esp Hawaii!

Its that good ole southern guilt that my Momma is just a freakin legend at creating...

After the boy graduates, its on... you and me... no dogs, no house projects, no nothin but getting lost in one another somewhere quiet... I vote we go back to Asheville to that lovely "cabin"...

[EnderD_503]

In August I'm going to Germany for two weeks. I haven't booked my flight yet but uni gave me enough money back to book a cheap flight to Hamburg... so I'm determined. It won't be a long stay and I probably won't be able to make the long trip down to Bavaria where I used to live (would love to be able to make down there for nostalgia's sake but it'd be too expensive without a pass), but at least I'm going!

I'll mostly be spending my time in Schleswig-Holstein camping out at a festival with some friends and then probably doing some traveling around Schleswig-Holstein and Niedersachsen. I don't want to spend too much time in Hamburg because there's not much to do there, but maybe make it up to Lübeck (great city, first time I witnessed broad daylight in the middle of the night lol), over to Hannover and a few other places.

Really excited!

[Just_G]

I am really excited for the Reunion of course, but that is a whole other thread! :winky:

I am hoping business picks up just a smidge so I can get my ticket booked to Ft Lauderdale for my break in September, right after Labor Day weekend. My sister, my best friend, and I are going to go down for a week and stay in my buddy's condo for free. We will buy food and cook most meals there....and it is only a stone's throw from the beach! When you sit on the balcony, you can see between the buildings across the street and the sand and waves are right THERE! I am stoked to go lay on the beach and do NOTHING....NO studying, NO drama, NO computers, NO work, and I will be there with 2 of my favorite people in the world!!

Once I graduate in March 2012, I plan on heading to Mexico to do nothing on the beach; then it is time to get a real job and start my new exciting life!! All at the ripe young age of 40!! :hangloose:

[Delish]

I brought in NYE in Ft Lauderdale and stayed there a week before traveling through different parts of Fl for 2 more. I LOVED it there. If u haven't been there already u have to check out the Gayborhood! There is some FABULOUS resteraunts down there.

[Lynn]

We're saving up for a week away at Disney World next Christmas. It's supposed to be for our honeymoon (getting married in October), but we're also taking my daughters because we think it will be even more fun to share it with them. Between now and then, we'll probably do some weekend getaways to PA to see family, or MA because we love it. I wish we could travel more, but we try to make the most of the weekends when the weather is nice. :)

Ahhh, yes, the gayborhood! I have been there a couple of times, but it has been years. As odd as it may sound, I will be happy to be as far away from the queer crowd on my vaca! I want peace and quiet, and lots of time to spend with my sister and best friend. More than likely, I will be found either snorkeling, laying under a palm tree, finding seashells, or walking up to the pier. I need to hear the ocean and feel the sand between my toes. I can be around the queers all I want when I get back home...lol I live in the midwest and don't get to the beach very often!

[Ciaran]

When you make it over, spend more time in Ireland than Scotland as it's people are friendlier, the scenery is much more beautiful and, all-in-all, it's a much better holidaying experience ***


*** I admit to being ever so slightly biased ;)

[SmoothButch]

We just got back from Europe yesterday evening. We vacationed in Prague. Everyone said it was a beautiful place and they were right. We rented a car and also explored some of the surrounding areas of the Czech Republic.

We ventured out and took a road trip over to Poland and toured Auschwitz - Birkenau. :carride: On our second to last day we drove to Austria and spent the day sightseeing in Vienna.

Now we need a vacation to recover from vacation. lol

[MsTinkerbelly]

We are looking forward to Catalina in a couple of weeks (renting a house), and we are extending the trip through to the 2nd of May to go camping and fishing in our RV...we are taking a tent for the kids! Two adults, two teen girls, a dog and a cat are just a bit much, even in a nice size RV like ours...LOL:jester:

Looking forward to the Bahamas in June...staying at the Atlantis thanks to Scoote's hard work....can't wait for the waterslides, the lazy river....and the dolphins. :)

[WingsOnFire]

Mini vacation.. 3 nights, 4 days at a hotel with 50 female scrapbookers.. Sir used to ask me why I was gluing paper to paper... :giggle: After he saw a full album he understood..

Cant wait to spend time with my best friend.. All the food, snacks and drinks we want..

[MsTinkerbelly]

I am very curious and am compelled to ask, How much is it to fill up the gas tank on your RV?

Not sure, gas has never been quite this high ...probably $300 for the trip from Lakewood to lake Isabella and back...300 miles or so.

[Abigail Crabby]

I work for a use it or lose it state.....ugh


So for vacation I am going to bring in the New Year in Sedona Az....

Hopefully we can take a lil side trip to the GC so I can get more pics, and stop by all the lil native stands by the road ooohing and ahhing over pretty silver and torquoise jewelry.

But I could look forward to lounging at the spa at the hotel in Sedona just as well lol

[Oiler41]

Heading out early Saturday morning for a week-long trip to the Smokey Mountains! Sooooo looking forward to the downtime with my beautiful wife! A good week is planned with a balance of a few planned/time sensitive events, but also plenty of time to do whatever we feel like doing at whatever time we feel like doing it. Three days and counting,,,

I’m planning my vacation to the Netherlands. If there is a superior cluster of people, it’s the Dutch. To have the opportunity and moral freedom to smoke hashish in public or maybe even pay someone for sex without the fear of the moral police whipping me with the proverbial cane of morality. Then force me to wear that scarlet letter – S for shame. I guess I’m a bohemian; definitely a sinner.
Seriously, I want to visit the birth place of some of my fav artists like Rembrandt, Vermeer, and especially Van Gough.
And the Anne Frank museum.

[Kenna]

I got to thinking today that I would really enjoy/deserve to take the week of my birthday and maybe the week after to vacation at one of several places I rarely get to see but would LOVE to pamper myself at....

Warm Springs/Hot Springs VA....Berkeley Springs WVa (if the soaking pools are still open?)...Hot Springs NC and their Spa....(flip a coin....)....I'm tempted to find out if a week or two spent soaking frequently in "healing waters" would benefit my physical health as well as my spirit? ....I've heard many people talk of how mineral springs helped with deep tissue, nerve and immune system issues.

I think a little vacation for my birthday will be delightful...especially since there should be snow on the ground in the Virginia mountains while I'm soaking in Hot Springs?

[SirenManda]

Were going to do a cabin in the woods trip next month. I miss being in the woods, I forget what it was like without wifi and emails. Constant phone calls and handling stuff 24/7.

We're planning for the Christmas holidays right now.

So far, dear wife and I are headed to Texas for Christmas with her family. We'll be boarding 2 cats and 5 frogs. Mother, who lives with us now, will be headed back to my sister's in Illinois for Christmas, as this will be the last Christmas my niece, who will graduate high school in December, will be 1. At "home", and 2. a civilian. She has enlisted in the U.S. Army (she was "afraid" of the Marine Corps!! LOL) and will be leaving for boot camp in January. We're all very proud of her and are wishing her the best. :heartbeat:

We'll be taking the Durango, instead of my Ram 1500, on the trip this time.

An exciting time will be had by one and all. :twitch::winky:

Road trip :)

[SleepyButch]

Well I was going to Ptown next week but those plans got cancelled so now instead.....

are you ready......


wait for it...


I'm taking my mom to see her twin sister in North Eastern PA and the family will drive down to Atlantic City for a couple of days.

I'm sure everyone is jealous that I get to go to the Jersey shore with my mom.

Lol.

My mom is not in the best of health and doesn't fly much as she has to use oxygen so this will probably be the last time she gets to go to see her family.

Women's Weekend 2.0 On The Russian River! Sept 12-14 !!

Fellow Planeteer 'vagina' and I will be partying it down on The Russian River with wet, wanton women all this weekend. *Just north of S.F.

My extremely hot, femme fatale, 'vagina' and I will then do some traveling up Coastal Hwy 1, visit some hot springs in northern California and Oregon, *exciting! In between all of these adventures, we will be going on a hot air balloon ride because vagina really, really loves heights! *evil grin.

Two weeks of mischievousness, Yeah Baby!

Any of you want to come visit us at the music festival, contact me via PM, we have rented a wicked home in the heart of the redwoods and we can have a dinner bash! and cocktails!

There will be plenty for carnivores since vagina only eats bananas.
