VWL Groupies & Lovers Thread (Special Collectors Edition 2.0) updated 21 June 2023

Thought about sharing this picture again with the groupies for Memorial Day, but thought it more appropriate the day after . . . just a reminder that Disney does get stuff from places that have no idea what the item is about. I bought this flag a number of years ago at Disney. I never opened it up until I got home. The letters are stitched on correctly on the other side, but this side got away from them.

Maybe they were quoting Elmer Fudd?

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY 2K! (See how I'm channeling my inner Millennial?)

"So please bear with me and maybe nudge me every once in awhile." Pat :badpc: Consider yourself "nudged."

Corinne: At the very least you can say you finally tried AP. We love its romantic nature, its relative quiet nature, and the ability to walk around the Lodge grounds after a good meal.

JT: Maybe you and I could work up an act and perform on Main Street: JimmyTammy and his Amazingly Trained Dog!! (I will work for wine.)

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY 2K! (See how I'm channeling my inner Millennial?)

I thank all of you. Lee my DH had a day of cleaning up some of our landscape around the homeplace ( we had a small lull in the thunderstorms which have been our constant companion for the last 3 months ) while Kati and I went and did some shopping (we do that so well with each other) to pick up some last minute things that she needed to take with her when she leaves Friday for her summer work at the Texas Lions Camp.

We were without power for the bulk of yesterday. It is the first thunderstorm that has messed with our electricity. We had a few limbs down in town. One small one across our road which Lee had to move for me this morning so I could go to work. I have not complained about the weather, since this has at least gotten our state out of a 5 year drought. Most of our lakes are full to flood stage, but we still have a couple that are not there yet, but the flooding down in south TX is really bad. Luckily the area in south TX that I am taking Kati to is not subject to flooding. She is truly in a high spot of the Hill Country.

Again, thanks for the anniversary wishes. . . this was 31 for us and I feel that we are still newlyweds!!!
 
Corinne, that is sweet of you to say and I would consider that an honor to be a Ranger. I have the gray hair, so might could approach looking like I have wisdom(even though we all know thats a farce:tilt:).

Sleepy, we need to work on that, you may very well have something going there. I would love being able to interact with folks who visit WDW. SO any job that would put me into a position like that would be great.
 
Jimmy, if anyone was made for the "ranger" position at the WL, it's you!!!

Corinne - What a great idea! A new campaign: Jimmy for Ranger! Stan would be proud; and I can hear him encouraging Jimmy now. All it takes is a love of the lodge and good legs (for standing around, not necessarily to look at . . .) I can't think of a better Groupie to be the Welcoming Ranger at WL than Jimmy; great smile, wonderful welcoming personality, strong supporting wife, great enthusiastic family!
 


JT, I have to agree with Corinne, I think you'd make a great Ranger! You had a great role model in Ranger Stan. And now Ranger Don and Ranger Jack. Yep, a ranger it should be.

FYI: maybe you now this, maybe you don't. When DDaughter and I were at the Lodge in February, we met the nicest security man on the 4th floor. Daughter asked him if everything was OK. His response was that it was his job to walk the halls and check all the doors to be certain they were locked. I had no idea this was something that was done.

Kathy, Wishing you and Le a very Happy Anniversary Week!
 
DISNEY TRIVIA
This is a day early but.....

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY WILDERNESS LODGE
Thursday May 28th 1994 Disney's Wilderness lodge opens with 728 rooms. The lodge is modeled on the old National park lodges found in the Pacific Northwest.
lol but we already knew this one.... :teeth:

off to play in Ft Lauderdale and then on Royal Caribbean's "Oasis of the Seas" for 7 days (thanks Julie). I plan on posting a few pictures over on the RC board so if you have a hankering to see what this ship looks like, wander over beginning Saturday.

Kathy, darn it I'm late again. I hope you and dh had a wonderful anniversary and magical wishes for 100 more.

Stay safe, happy and healthy guys.
 
OK Disney Fans . . .How many pairs of sunglasses are turned into lost & Found everyday in The World? After the parks close, all items turned in are transferred daily to where?

No idea how many sunglasses but I have donated a pair myself! :laughing: AFAIK main lost and found gets everything - it's located at what was previously the Kennel for the MK by the TTC.
 
DDad...I'm guessing over 100 pairs of sunglasses? And I agree with Kathy's response on where they go.

Eliza...thanks for the WL Anniversary notification, and here's hoping for safe and fun travels for you! Godspeed!

Di...That is surprising. I guess if they find a door open they just shut/lock it? Probably a nice touch since there may be some littler ones leaving the room and not pulling the door fully shut. Interesting info! :)
 
Aww, you folks are making me blush now:o I would love to be the Ranger but got a feeling I would be spending lots of time talking about Stan and the groupies

Don't know the answer to your first question, but the answer to your second question is the area where they transferred my son's Disney hat two times during one vacation. :)
