And my Texas kids have it on their calendar hoping to join us. This time it will be both of them.
That's great news!! We sure enjoyed having Kyle with us on the boat, hearing how they were doing and how hard Julie is working on her stuff. Will be great to see her, we all missed her this year.

@bronze_10 I told my wife that we're going! We'll have to pull Caitlin out of school but can't miss the 10th anniversary! But also can't pull her out of school for to many days, so if I can talk the boss into it, we'll leave on Wed and arrive Thursday, and then probably stay over into the next week (as Caitlin will be out of school that next week for the first week of track 3 vacation). I just need to get home and work it out with the boss so we can call Lithia to book a cabin before they are all gone! We might head to Indiana after that (Lebanon area) @Speedling....to see family...there has to be water there somewhere?

Check out Racoon lake, Lake Monroe, and Monticello has Indiana Beach and that is a little lake i have been too. Or, drive drive 2.5 hours up to Lake Michigan for beaches that can't be beat unless you prefer saltwater.
Also check with @scot71 !

If we go we will need to leave on Saturday late.. I would hate to travel 10 hours or so on the day before they start a new school year

@bronze_10 you could always fly the family back Sunday and tow on your own I think that is my plan right now. I think I may go ahead book tomorrow to try and get a spot at the resort. If you decide to go let me know maybe we can caravan up.

Leaving late Saturday would not cause you to miss too much. Especially since we are moving the dinner to Friday night. However, you guys may influence the average travel time for attendees.
