Okay,

I don't just want to talk about it ............I want to go and see and expierience. I have a feeling maybe somethings maybe clearer upon actually being there.

I think it would be grovvy if some of us all showed up for the same days and got to talk about it within a serious intrest some sight seers don't have.

Is anyone intrested. And yes Im serious!

Maybe we can all put our 2 cents in and renact our theroies while we are there.

I have planned to go back this summer, but am not sure when I can do it. It all depends on what our schedules turn out to be. I'm not sure when school starts back up again next semester. But I would be interested in meeting some of you all myself.

Well, Iam up to go anytime, anyday...........! I really just don't want to stay in a room all by myself!:) I don't think Im that brave:)

Staying in the rooms alone is not that bad. I have stayed in Lizzie's room and the guest room. Slept like a baby. I haven't decided which room for next time...hmmm.

Do you snore???

How do you feel about having one small bag thus allowing your traveling companion to have 5-6 large ones?

You'd better hope not !

Only 5 or 6 bags ? Downsizing huh ?

Audree,

Take as many wonderful bags as you like.!

I have to travel light . Im always on standby my husband works for Comair/Delta so we get free travel by plane anywhere anyday/time just it's standby.

I asked my hubby to go with me he said no way that I was just asking something to fallow me home (meaning some spirits/ghosts)

That would be great Audree.

By the way, this year August 4th falls on a Thursday.

LOL hey Nona, fly me out and I'll stay in a room with you...I'll protect you from the boogie men as well :)

I think, aside from the history and lack of hallways, it's a SWELL house! Having grown up in a tiny three-bedroom second-floor walk-up in Woodside, Queens, Lizzie's room looked huge to me!

And I, too, slept like the proverbial baby in the guest room, with my hubs at my side.

Nona · Post by **Nona** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 10:43 am

Pippii, we do have these cool things called Buddy passes we only get 6 a year......friends and family can fly , but you still have to pay 3cents a mile and it's standby all the way.sometimes it ends up to be a great deal depends on where your flying from.standby is alittle frustarting though!:)

Nona · Post by **Nona** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 10:48 am

And I should mention this I want nothing to do with the Ouigi (spelled wrong someone help me out) board. I'd probably take a walk or something during that part.why you ask.........

It's not becuase I don't believe in it .....I do believe it is definitly more than a game........and have more than enough expieriences from friends that I don't want to expierience it:)

theebmonique · Post by **theebmonique** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 2:04 pm

I agree Nona...no Ouija board for me either. My experience the last time at the house made me think..."OK...I tried it..the end".

Tracy...

I think that would be great!! We could spend a weekend or something trying to be sleuths, reconstruting the crime and see if we can come up with a solution to what happened. It'd be great!

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 4:22 pm

Nona
Set the date!! How about the weekend of August 4th ? I know someone said that that day falls on a Thursday, maybe we could do it that weekend.

Pippi · Post by **Pippi** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 8:56 pm

standby is fine with me...I hope to be back living in CT by summer which would be so much easier but if not hahaha what a trip you guys are a riot, fine ouiji stays at home but my pendulum goes! (Just kidding about the ouiji I'm not a fan either)

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 9:28 pm

check the prices for the rooms on the website. Think we could swing it if we pool the money together. I know it said something about you could have a single room or put two of them together and make it a suite. Whatever suits everyone.

Nona · Post by **Nona** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 11:02 pm

i Think I read it's 200 a night for 3 of the rooms 150 for others.

It would be nice to have the whole house for us all, can that be done?

Whoever has been there do they just allow you to roam the whole house wherever you want? so we can reenact some things or go to whatever part we have questions about? How does it work anyhow?

Pippi what state are you in?

Nona · Post by **Nona** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 11:04 pm

August 4th is my birthday!@ Ill be 31........! will they let us do that date?

do they charge extra for that day?

Pippi · Post by **Pippi** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 9:47 am

isn't there a group rate discount Hint hint

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 12:55 pm

I am sure we could book the whole house and maybe get a group rate if we called well enough in advanced.

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 12:59 pm

is there a way to find out if there is a group rate?

Pippi · Post by **Pippi** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 4:51 pm

I looked on the website and it mentioned group tours...you'd have to call about a group rate of the lizzie borden society taking over the B&B hahahaha

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 7:44 am

That would be so cool!! Thirty or forty of us taking on the Borden Bed and Breakfast and River Falls. Let's do it! Just to see what they'll do.

Pippi · Post by **Pippi** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 9:39 am

they'll take in a lot of money is what they'll do!

I'm not sure this is being planned early enough to take over the house for August 4th...popular time

Nona · Post by **Nona** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 11:23 am

I didn't do any checking since it didn't seem like enough people were intrested in going all at the same time.......I still plan on going
.I have to I need to..It's all I can think about lateley!:)

If there is a sincere intreast I don't mind doing all the research on the idea.

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 12:13 pm

I'd love to go. Are you still interested Nona? Wouldn't mind going.

Nona · Post by **Nona** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 12:24 pm

Okay.after being in the archives........I finally got off my butt and called the Band B.

Dee ansered the phone and was wildly happy the group was thinking about maybe coming down!!!!!!!!

She asked about Kat and Stephani and harry and the other "long timers" in our group........she was genuinly so happy she said I quote if we decide to go she wants to be part of it as she said "pick me up Ill be at the house!"

SO WE HAVE TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!

she sounded sooooooooo sweet. She said to call back on thursday to talk to Leanne about "special rates" she may giva a bigger discount cuz it's for us.

SO please lets everyone be serious for a minet......any questions anyone want me to ask please post for me

snokkums · Post by **snokkums** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 12:42 pm
