I'm doin it!
That's right folks..........I'm doin it!
Some of you have been asking me, telling me, and encouraging me to go forward with an idea that I had way back when, after my first trip to Farm Chicks.
Well mostly those who hang with me on a regular basis are sick of listening to me talk about it... but whatever! My constant babbling about it now just got turned up a notch.
I'm taking my love for road trips, junk, and parties on the road!
Today I called and gave my credit card (The Hubs is going to have a stroke) to Bob at Chinook Bus Charter, I purchased my domain names, and activated a Paypal account.
I know your sayin "what the hell is she up to now?"
I'm organizing a bus tour from the Seattle area to The Barn House Sale in Battleground, WA on September 12th!
Yep! A big ass bus (well actually a mediums size bus) full of ladies who love junkin, takin road trips, craftin, eatin, and havin a good time.
This is the plan
Leave the Snohomish area around 6 am on Saturday Morning
make a few stops (potty, pick ups, and potty) along the way and arrive at Barn House about 9-ish or 10-ish.
Shop around The Barn House big fabulous fall sale for a while, have a little lunch, then head over to some of my other favorite stops while in Battle Ground. Then, we'll head home around 3-ish which will put us back at the cars around
6-ish.
The cost is going to be $125 per person for a full day of fun, shopping, lunching with your friends, meeting new friends, and....the best part.....you don't have to drive!
This weekend I'm going down to the Barn House sale to let them know I'm planning on bringing a bus load of ladies to their sale. I'm going to map out the route, and get some more details figured out to make this fabulous.
This week I'll also be looking for vendors who want to participate in this "rollin party!"
Seating will be limited, so start making your plans now.
I'm working on an official blog that will have all the details.
Stay tuned!
If you want to be on the notification list, e-mail your information (Name, phone # and the number of seats you want) to agirlnamedtimi@hotmail.com and I'll notify you as soon as I 'm offically selling seats.
If you would like to come in from out of town I'm working on that too!

Come Junk With Us!

Timi, Sounds like great fun! I live fairly close 2.5 hours away from the Longaberger factory/town and have been on several bus trips to that, that included a bus tailgate picnic lunch etc... Games while on the bus and lots of fun, I know you girls will have a great time! Wish I didnt live on the other side of the country! Sue
