  1. Awesome! congrats on the new digs Barb.
  2. I saw that... It's tempting at that price.
  3. None taken... It's not for everyone. I enjoy it and have a good time when I'm here. On the other hand for some people coming here is like religion. I love it when those people push and cut their way in front of my kids to get a good spot for fireworks display that they've seen so many times they could choreograph it. As side note Hollywood Studios has essentially transformed into Star wars studios. It was pretty cool.
  4. Father's day at the Slopeside.
  5. Oh it was wonderful. Didn't start till the beginning of January, ended in late January after breaking the shoulder, canceled Utah trip.
  6. Is that the PPL building on the logo? ...classy!
  7. Thank you sir. The magic bands have arrived. Dining, FP+ are all booked up, kids are stoked...I'm officially broke. haha. As a side note, I'm looking forward to all of the new Star Wars stuff happening in Hollywood Studios.
  8. Supposedly you can see the Grand Canyon from the top.
  9. That's like asking the Pope to pray. It'll happen.
  10. I know you posted this a while ago. Just seeing it now. Anyhow no Wawa is not shitty fast food. I took off 20 lbs last fall eating their turkey hoagies for lunch (no cheese, oil or mayo, just vinegar oh and get the wheat instead of white) with an apple or carrots. Also (although expensive) Saladworks is always good. replace the white roll with wheat, avoid the cheese or bacon and use the fat free balsamic dressing. Shit's delicious.
  11. It snowed last night about a half inch here in the pocs with the wind chills in the teens for the next few days. It seriously sounds like the damn wind right now is about to uproot our house and drop it in the land of fucking Oz. To be honest I'm over it. Hoping next winter will be better.
  12. Nice...Hope you enjoy AZ. Me and my wife hiked the superstitions a few years ago and it was one of the most surreal places I've been. Like going back in time 150 years or visiting the set of Back to the Future part 3 (not sure which is cooler).
  13. The really cool part was sending me a gift card for my kids ski club passes. They could've said give them to someone else or they could've told me that since the injury happened to me there was nothing they could do about their passes, but they completely understood that I needed to take them, ski with them etc so they credited that as well... Again awesome customer service. That's some bullshit right there.
  14. Still managed 8 days this season... Could've been worse I guess.
  15. Not to rehash shit but the 7 of us who post here know that my ski season ended when I got jacked up pretty good at Blue in January. It was an accident. No one's fault. Shit happens. Obviously I'm a pass holder at Blue plus I have a few hundred invested in ski club passes for my girls. So I drop some dough there. Granted it's not PoconoOceanCity's JFBB dough, but dough none the less. ( ) Anyway after I got hurt I initially assumed that my $$ was a wash for this season. After getting my wits about me, at some point post surgery, I figured let me call Blue and and see if there is anything they could do. I spoke with a very nice gentleman who advised that I should send a note from my Dr. in order for them to credit not only the un-used portion of my season pass for this year but also the 11 of the 12 unused tickets for my kids since they wouldn't be going without me. Long story short I gathered up everything that they needed and mailed it off. Yesterday I find a check in the mail from Blue Mt. I called today to try and determine what exactly the check was for. I spoke with a very nice lady who advised that the manager I sent my info to was in a meeting. She transferred me to her VM. The manager called me right back (extremely nice and knew exactly who I was) explained that the check was for the un-used portion of my season pass. She also stated that a gift card was on it's way (got that today) for the un-unsed ski club passes for my kids. Bottom line, Blue basically refunded me for everything except for the skiing I did up until I got hurt; in a season where they probably took a beating because of the weather none the less. Pretty f'ing cool. I'm not sure if this is standard for all ski areas. (I don't think it is). But I wanted to share because not only was everyone I talked to extremely nice and pleasant but Blue definitely treated me like a valued customer / passholder. They've earned my business for a long time because of it. It's not like Blue needs additional props around this place but for any lurkers or posters thinking about Blue next year (C1er, etc). Do it. Their customer service alone is worth it.
  16. Dude I say this as a friend who cares a lot about you. Please stop with these type of posts. "I have 3 kids and a beautiful loving fiancé who I need to be around for" I'll add a few...a job, nice car to drive, friends, a fucking kick as hobby (skiing) people who care about you etc etc. The list goes on. Glass half full bro. Perhaps your near miss at work the other day was a wake up call to see the good and say fuck you to the negative. No one is perfect.
  17. yeah I was thinking the same. A bad one may fuck up your life. But a Psychologist fucking up one's life seems counter productive.
  18. That's actually a really good deal.
