    Legoland FL Review from a Disney fanatic

    Was there yesterday with my five y/o. Park was not crowded at all and we didn't have any waits over a few minutes. We did follow the tour path but skipped the roller coasters because my son isn't tall enough (and doesn't like them yet). Seemed like the tour path is pretty accurate to avoid...

    Hyatt Grand Cypress

    Stayed there for three nights a couple of years ago for a business meeting. Very nice resort overall. Pool is laid out well and has some nice seperation so it all in one big area. Trail on the property is nice for running. Room was really nice for a business trip, but small. Really no...

    Kindle-Love it? Hate it? Like something else?

    We have the Kindle Keyboard and love it. Chose it because e-ink was easier to read than the color models and I didn't like the touchscreen. Touchscreens create smudges from fingerprints and need to be cleaned to read. We also picked the Kindle over the Nook because I don't have faith that...

    Best CLE to MCO?

    Do you have to fly out of CLE? We have used CAK, PIT, and CMH to find cheaper flights than CLE.

    Favorite non-park ideas?

    We loved Gatorland. It is a great animal park and is pretty affordable. Our kids loved all the reptiles and shows they had. If you are not into alligators I wouldn't go though. The swamp walk is also pretty cool. You get to walk through the begining of the Everglades on a wooden foot bridge...

    federal tax return

    There was a problem with the new "improved" processing system. It was supposed to process returns as they came in vs. batching like years in the past. The idea was to get refunds out faster to help the economy. Unforunately the system had quite a few bugs and the IRS switched back to the old...

    2011 Super Goofs

    Good start to the year so far and pretty happy with 2010 results. I've officially been running for 2 years now and will hopefully just build on that. What is the 100 day Challenge? Good luck to everyone running this weekend.

    It's the most wonderful time of the year for the SUPER GOOFS in December

    Haven't posted at all lately. Looks like I'm not alone. Been pretty busy with the holidays. I feel pretty good though because I'm managing to get mileage in at least four times a week. I haven't done any racing at all this month, but plan on doing a New Years day run in Columbus, OH. If...

    It's the most wonderful time of the year for the SUPER GOOFS in December

    Only 55 miles for November. I really took the month easy. I did run a 5k and got 2nd overall. Of course the kid who should have won the race missed the last turn and kept running. Not exactly the best organized race. Still cool to get a top 3 spot.

    Thankful SUPER GOOFS in NOVEMBER

    No tricks and all (healthy) treats in OCTOBER with the SUPER GOOFS

    Maura...Great job! Qualifying for Boston is a big deal and you should be really proud. Steve...Nice job on the PR. Sometimes just running w/o a pace plan works and gets you into just running vs. stressing over time. I finished my first full today too. It was the Columbus, OH...

    Long range plan question?

    Jeremy...Good luck on your half. I'll be there as well running my first full. Columbus is supposed to be a pretty fun enviornment. Running 3 days a week is enough to accomplish most running goals. I agree though and would add some x-training for the other days. It will help your core and...

    No tricks and all (healthy) treats in OCTOBER with the SUPER GOOFS

    Steve...great job on the 5K. I never check mileage on courses for that exact reason. Some feel longer and some feel short, but I'd rather not know about the shorter ones. Last week until my first marathon. I did an easy 10 yesterday and it felt pretty good. Add some more rest this week...

    Suzanne sorry about your MIL. Never easy to lose a family member. 130 Miles for September. One more long run tomorrow and then I taper for my first marathon. I hope I finish.

    Here now...9-18 thru 9-25

    We were there 9/17 - 24 and the crowds were great. Never seemed crowded at all, and weather didn't seem too hot. Evenings were definately nice. We left on Friday so we didn't hit a park then, but driving through the resort the traffic was definately heavier than it had been during the...

    Walkway from HS to Epcot at night

    I was just there this past week and stayed at BWV. I ran the path every night after 9pm and it was lit and perfectly safe. Traffic on the path is light at the busiest times of the day.

    The NEW official, unofficial Boardwalk Villas/Boardwalk Inn thread!

    Staying in a 2bd now and it is the best! When we checked in my wife went to the room first and opened just the studio side first and thought the room was kind of small for us, but didn't say anything when i came in the room a few minutes later after parking the car. I asked her if she had...

    The Official 2010 MNSSHP- Tips,Tricks and a few Treats !

    We went last night and it was great. Walked right over to Frontier land at the start of the parade, got a great spot right in the begining and saw the horseman. The parade started a few minutes later and it was awesome. There was plenty of chocolate. We definately got quite a bit of it...
