Skip it. Or bring them with.

As cool as Winchester is, if you have to choose between Winchester and Hearst; take Hearst. In a heartbeat. Don't lose the chance to accommodate others: this is YOUR vacation.

Well, you have to understand that we can't please all the people all the time - we could slide dates up, down and sideways forever and still not please everyone. But you must understand, it's not personal...the only other choice is to not come at all, so no-one sees anyone...and as I'm a cup-half-full guy, here's looking at you kid!

Great attitude! As I mentioned above, this is YOUR vacation. Everyone else needs to plan around that.

Since you didn't get a straight answer: Coachella is a three-day music festival with (mostly) new and emerging bands (with a couple of big names thrown in to push ticket sales). I understand it is a GREAT event (if you don't mind standing out in 40 degree Celsius weather).

Not to deny the Bay Area peeps, Kevy is correct, Hearst over Winchester anyday. But I know you've wanted to do Winchester and we did not do it last year.

Looks like I need to book my vacation with the firm very soon (as soon as I pass my 90 days)

Months away, I confess, I am already giddy with excitement, not only spending time with the LashPair, but finally meeting WenchyBeth & Co., MS, Deebs (I hope sooner rather than later) the LibraryVixen (ditto, sooner rather than later) and seeing some other swankers it's been too long.

not to mention, Yosemite, a trip with the pros so I can experience it in real style. And one with a cabin, so no need for uber expensive camping gear, yet (unless there is another Camp Swank happening, too).

Oh, I'd love to see the Bears at Coachella!!! The gang that goes already rocks so add these two and Bamm!!

It looks like things have been straightened out....all looks great!!!

I like that the Yosemite visit leads into the Hearst Castle visit....more doable. Miss just a couple of weekdays and then you have the weekend.

Now, I doubt everyone would do this, but, we were short on time and we wanted to be in the valley first thing in the a.m. and have the whole day. We left San Diego late in the afternoon, drove powered by highly caffienated coffee beverages, made it all of the way to the Chukchansi casino, bet a bit, then went back and slept in the car for a few hours. This abled us to get to Yosemite for the full days we wanted. Just an idea for those who are short on time. It is doable.

And, I wonder what Gilroy will be like {um, I am confusing myself, it won't be time for their festivals, right?}? Is that the way to go from Yosemite, past Gilroy? Do Bears like garlic?

Those prices are awesome for that big cabin, but, if anyone wants to book with the DNC, they only require one nights stay as a deposit. Then, you can either pay upon arrival or make payments, I've done this.

I keep checking for the family room....not yet.....

Awww...Ms. Snowflake !!!

Gotta love that Stoat 'tude.

I can't do a whole week off thing ... but a couple of long weekends in a row might be possible .... um, ten months from now when I have no idea what my situation will be.

So ... and without studying the dates too intensely, I'm leaning towards spending a day or two in Yosemite (I'll find my own digs if necessary) and - is it the following(?) - weekend plus any necessary adjacent weekday to do San Simeon. Or has that been replaced with the Winchester WhatsUp House? I'm so confused.

The LP will be in the bay area for the 11th, 12th and on the 13th they travel to Yosemite, on Friday they travel to the Castle with the night tour, then on Saturday they do the day tour then depart for LA. The Winchester tour will be on Easter Sunday, before they arrive at the cabin.

Ponine · 06-13-2008, 08:22 AM

okay, somehow we will run into you two.

Hearst might be closer for us. I think that Winchester is too far.
I take that back.. they are both ages away. Whatever... we'll work it out.
