  1. ^ happy to be your egg buddy today or tomorrow. And would be able to repay the favor.
  2. Hadn't noticed yet, so all is good. Almost to 400 snacks to get my license, then the real fun begins.
  3. Dropped off some more eggs this morning, going to be leaving them in a L shape or wrapped around street corners if there's not a lawn anywhere. Happy whacking everyone.
  4. The Trith About Love - Pink
  5. Dropped eggs off to those I know are playing frequently, And I will also only be sending Lisa to Other Springfield. Really liking that this updates a bit more involved than just visit and click 3 buildings in all my friends Springfields.
  6. Just jumped in and started dropping some eggs off to some towns. Do we know if there is a set time limit for how quickly snakes spawn or how many you get a day in your town besides tasks?
  7. Started the 24 hour tasks, excited to get whacking and start getting prizes since the game was getting a bit boring with out stuff to do.
  8. As part of my 2013 goals and investment in a new computer and camera I am finally going to do some trip reports of all my adventures for the year. All my trips I will try to take slightly different pictures than what you would normally see or at least that is part of my goal. It'll be a learning curve for me so any constructive feed back will be welcomed. I'm also on a learning curve with the Mac and new camera so I apologize the photos are so small. Any who lets get started shall we? Adventure 1: The Hunt for Dolly Not everyone knows this, but what started out as a joke is now actually turned into me being a fan of Dolly Parton. Not that OMG obsessive fan but a moderate one. Dollywood is also one of my top parks to visit due to the attractions, shows, setting, food and friendliest staff you'll ever encounter. Not to mention the park goers are in a league of their own. Now each year on opening weekend Dolly is at the park and does a little parade and hops into shows here and there to surprise visitors. This year a few friends and I rented a cabin through Dollywood cabins (highly recommended) and headed to the park to see if we could find Dolly. On to the pictures: Surely we are going the right direction! Getting even closer! At last! Now the hunt to see Dolly can begin! But first thing is first at Dollywood, bread and questioning where Dolly was. She wouldn't tell us where Dolly was, but did show off how the best bread ever is made. Seriously try some if you ever go to Dollywood. Adventure Mountain is becoming a part of the past. It was a good attraction but what ever is coming will probably be equall if not better. Lots of staff say it's a coaster, the Dippin Dots guy was mute on the subject The Dolly Van sneaking around the park drove by and off we went to find her. What we found was not the Dolly we hoped for... Feeling let down another snack was needed. We boarded the Dolly Express to take a sit and hope to get some info on where she might be (suck it Hogwarts Express) Once the train returned we found out we had just missed the Dolly parade! A bit saddened by missing the parade, we went to look at old wood, new wood, in-between wood. And as always Thunderhead was running great! Even if it was 40 degrees out. Keep Yer boots on! We kept seeing these signs about the original but not the real Dolly that were like a tease. But this sign gets me excited for later this summer Opening weekend at Dollywood also means the Festival of Nations. This was an Australian Act that used metal poles to dance and spin around on. As it was outside and cold there was no surprise Dolly visits that were going to happen. So we took a break to strategize with some skillet food. Hi Joey! And a small slice of Dollywood's 25lb apple pie for a pick me up. If you've never been to Pigeon forge, it's full of characters, like this guy with his custom leather jacket that said "Southern By The Grace of God" Strolling around the park you can see Wild Eagle's soar, but some how we still couldn't see Dolly. We decided to ask one last festive person where we might see her and then suddenly.... At last! There she is! A successful fun weekend that all culminated with me getting to exchange quick sent aces with Dolly. Hurrah!
  9. Such a crazy ride! Life is soo much better with it being a 3 hours drive away rather than a 6 hour flight.
  10. ^ done Chuck. Thank you for the prior donation you gave to all the kings dominion participants. Go team TPR!
  11. Finally saw Pink last Thursday night. All the good reviews I've heard held true, she is a great performer. The show is a great balance of dance numbers, Ariel Acts, and her being a dork. She performed straight through the show, no intermission and it was almost 2 hours. Which I give her major props for doing. It was great to see her stop and sign one or two pictures people were holding in the pit, or when a stuffed animal made it on stage she totally grabbed it and acknowledged the person who gave it to her . Basically if you enjoy her music and she comes through town, its completely worth the money to see.
  12. Now that is a fun looking coaster train!
  13. Pink - The Truth About Love
  14. It's not that she is looking bad, but that her priorities as the manager are that of a sales associate which is causing friction between us. Dreading dealing with her "wanting to talk" tomorrow
  15. Going to have to defend an attack on me doing my job too well tomorrow... Missing my way more laid back and less numbers obsessed coworkers in LA.
  16. Looks like a ton of fun! Something else to add to the to do list!
  17. Dolly Parton - In My Tennessee Mountain Home
  18. Brings back some fond memories of carowinds,first park on my first TPR trip.
  19. Just watched the off ride footage and can only think holly crap! Really thank you Robb and Chad for going out and getting such great coverage to share with us. Now to patently wait for summer to roll around And quick question, how is the comfort of the trains? They are the first RMC has designed and built in house right?
  20. ^ I tried that glitch since after accidentally getting Shauna I had so little doughnuts to lose. It worked fine but took about 3 attempts to get it right.
  21. Can't wait to see the POV, And hear about how crazy Outlaw Run is.
  22. Looking better and better, and at such a quick pace. Can't wait to check out this expansion in person.
  23. Saw Scott Weiland last night at the Howard theater in DC. Basic version was I helped his Bass player in my store and was invited to the show so went. Great venue though $11 for their call drinks seemed a bit much. He put on a great show, made some funny jabs about his extremely recent split (getting fired) and drugs and alcohol abuse. Scott and the band all sounded absolutely great in part from talent and the sound crew was outstanding. His opening band the Miggs also sounded great though that was probably more the sound guys doing. All in all it was a decent paced set and ended by Scott throwing some stuff and kicking over the drum set with the venue turning the lights off on him.
  24. Every time I've gone they've enforced the rule pretty intensely. Either pocket everything or bring lots of quarters. Oh and have fun on your first visit!
  25. The game started locking up on me yesterday, no harp noises. Even after the update it still won't get passed the loading screen. Ugh.
