Fabulous! This is one area I didn't get to last year and I was really sad to have missed the Monopoly Board.

Any guesstimate of a time frame yet?

**Lauren** · 06-12-2009, 05:55 AM

4ish till 6ish.

OMG! I think I finally get to come to a DSP crop! I just decided to quit my job and take some time off and I've been really nervous about making sure I have enough to do while I am off so this will give me something to look forward to! Hope to see everyone there.

**Lauren** · 06-17-2009, 01:38 AM

I look forward to meeting you!!!!

For those that have done this walk in the past, how accessible is it by wheelchair? Just planning ahead. Oh, and I was looking at the Monopoly Board site, how awesome would that be if we could rent it out either before or after the photo walk! That or rent it out for our hubbies who don't want to go to the crop. Just an idea.

We did a different walk last year. It looks pretty flat though when you look at it on google street view.
The monopoly board is a public area so Im sure anyone can go there

I went there last year and it is all pretty level with walkways. I don't think it would be a problem for a wheelchair. It is cool to see!!

poohbear77 · 06-21-2009, 10:41 PM

Cool, I am very excited to get to go! I'll have DH there to help out, but I like to do as much on my own as I can (besides, he's not that enthused about the photo walk as I am). Thanks to Scamp for sharing with me three awesome layouts she did from last year which truly are inspirational. I hope to be able to take some "inspirational" photos like that this year.

crlin60 · 06-22-2009, 11:18 PM

I'm sure you will get some wonderful pictures!

I'm new around the mb, but registered and am really excited about this event! (Even added my flair!) I'm coming from Southern Cal and my plane lands at San Jose at 2:42 and I'm told it's 3 miles from the airport, so I'm hoping to get there in time for the walk. Counting down the days! Thanks!
