Hey CC, as usual, you're a little ahead of me. I have made a decision. Many factors went into it and there was a lot of scheduling to be thought out on this one. Just about have my post typed up in Word. I will transfer it here ASAP. Hang in there.

I got a few vacation destinations out of this. It was hard to choose which one comes first. But, I finally did. All wonderful ideas as I knew they would be. So many I wouldn't have thought of myself because I didn't know they existed. I already know that I will be doing at least two of those "new to me" ones in later 2007/2008 vacations.

Thank you everyone. You really helped me out a lot. Looking forward to meeting as many of you as I can on this trip. I'll be back soon to post my decision.

Ok, CrazyCanuck - here ya go.

My decision came very hard, I must tell you. There were so many great ideas and I was very torn. So I decided to do a couple of them that are near enough to each other to make it feasible to combine them. So................

I'll be flying into Oakland mid-week Mar. 28th or so. Not sure of specific date yet. Will ride around the Bay area and Napa a few days and then do the Cinderella Ride on the 31st. I'll fly out within the next day or two into the Portland area. From there, I will be taking day trips up to Seattle and other places. I hope to meet tons of TE ladies while I'm on the west coast. Anyone with any specific ideas for any of these places, speak up please.

As for the Blue Ridge Parkway, I think I'd like to go there in the fall, 2007. Maybe OBX too. Do that trip as a split week kind of deal. It sounds great there.

As for Ohio, well, I went to visit BMo3 and her lovely family last weekend. Drove out 7 1/2 hours one way. Phew!! We also had Kitsune fly in from OR. What an eclectic grouping that was. Lots of fun. We will definitely do that again but next time I will fly as well. My azz is still stiff.

EBD - those day Napa trips that you posted will come in handy. Thanks.

Dar - I will only be flying alone on this trip. I have a feeling I won't be alone while out there. There are plenty of TE'ers and other bikers to keep me company. But feel free to join us. The more, the merrier!!

That's it for now. As I get some details, and more ideas from you all, I will update this thread.

Thank you to all who posted and all who PM'd me. It really meant a lot. I just love this forum. You ladies are the best!

Talk to ya soon...
