Guest guest Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 Thanks for the tips, Kathy!!! I talked DH into a hotel for part of the time -- whew! We're not actually going to be on a campground, but on the land my SIL and BIL bought - there is nothing there at all, except their camper and the beginnings of their stable (they're building the stable before the house...) I can " rough " it for a few days, but I figure I'm going to be " roughing " it on the train, too. I still say it woudl have been easier to fly - no matter how bad it gets it *is* over in one day, LOL! But DH really wanted to try a long train trip out. Good idea on the tricycle...I will have to see what I can do. I also plan to ship a box of small toys out before we go. And, I'm sorry I'm late in replying, for some reason I get your messages way out of order!!! THANKS! Donna --- kvetro60@... wrote: > > Donna, other than heavy sedation.....let's see.
