Your taking your lights down and we are expecting 3 to 6 inches of snow tomorrow. Yeah! We just started to see the grass in some spots. Here we go again.

Congrats! The last month was the toughest for me, couldn't sleep, very anxious, and ready for him. Sounds like you two are going to be wonderful parents

Yea, she's been pretty anxious lately, and he's been moving around tons! Thanks for the compliment as well, can't wait to take Reilly to his first Disney arcade, his first boat trip, first Thunder Mountain ride, first Disney pool, first otter sighting, first fireworks show, you get the picture....lol

[des1954]

Don't you guys get yourselves in trouble over me. I wasn't booted, It's all good.

Hi Pete!!!

Glad your sabbatical was short-lived!! So short in fact.... I didn't see your thread that was pulled, or even realized you were gone. Now, keep in mind that I've not been able to spend much time on the boards in the past week or so, so don't be offended.

See ya!!!

I have a tattoo.

Not sure I'd do it again, but it is small and on my right hip. I was at least smart enough to put it where it stayed covered. Most of the time I forget it's there.

 

[AuburnJen92]

my mother told me (and my sister) that if we ever got a tattoo, she would drug us and have it surgically removed, then send us the bill!

she still means it and we are both in our mid 30's!

I can understand that. My oldest is 4.5 & he just got to go on Space Mountain for the first time last month. He was finally tall enough!! He was so happy. He rode in the very first seat of the cars. We asked him if he was alright when it was over & he was like "OH YEAH!! That was AWESOME!!" : The second time he rode in the front seat of the second car, & the whole time was like "Mom, this is awesome." He's my little rider!! The only ride that he's gone on that he really doesn't like & won't go on again right away is ToT. He was in tears & holding on for dear life on that one!

Those first time on rides with the kids are great!!

Yea, Space Mountain will be great when he finally gets to ride it. I rode it once when I was really young, but I didn't ride it again till I was like 19 or so, something about the ride scared the crap out of me.

Now I'll go on it with no problem, but watch when it turns out that's his favorite ride and he makes his dad look like a scaredy cat...lol

Eh, you can also just fake "old". Unfortunately, for me I'm not really faking any more. I LOVE coasters, used to ride and ride and ride. But I'm finding the big coasters don't like me much any more. Space Mountain just beats me to death. (Maybe the rehab will smooth out the track

It STILL scares the crap outta me....I love good coasters...Everest is my new favorite...but SPMountain makes me feel like my head is going to get chopped off by the railings you go under...and IM VERTICALLY CHALLENGED (only 5'8"), and I would NEVER...repeat NEVER raise my hands on that ride for fear of drawing back a bloody knub!!! I dont know HOW IN THE WORLD someone like RvUSAs hight(6'7") can get on it without having a heart attack.

 

[Colson39]

Yea, I'm 6'2, and got to that height while I was still a teenager, probaly why it scared me so much.

I'm the exact same way, I always think my head is going to be chopped off. For a while I would ride it, but close my eyes. I finally can ride it now without closing my eyes, although my wife always screams out during the ride "STOP CLOSING YOUR EYES"...lol

 

[ntsammy5]

Yea, I'm 6'2,

Me too! I always thought the ride was lame though. I refuse to stand in line for it anymore and don't want to wast a FP on it. Now, Hulk & Kraken, that's a different story! I love those.

 

[Colson39]

Ugh, I can't stand Universal. We went there last November, first time I had been there in probably 10 years. I was actually kind of looking forward to it, but it just was all so tacky and I just didn't get a feel for it at all. Ended up pretty much walking through the whole thing. But that's just me, I know plenty of people like Universal

I'm not big on super duper roller coasters though (like the Hulk, etc...). Rockin Roller Coaster is about as "extreme" of a coaster that I like, and that's even pushing it. I do however LOVE Expedition Everest, it's definitely in my top 3 coasters now for sure (maybe even #1!!!). Every time we go I can't wait to ride it, and I love waiting in line almost as much as the ride. Everest has the best queue of any Disney ride ever, there is so much to look at.

I will always love Thunder Mountain though, so many memories. And Splash Mountain, man I love going on that ride with people that have never been on it, and freaking them out at every drop "OMG THIS IS THE BIG ONE, WOOOOHOOOO" and it's only one of the small 10 foot drops...lol

 

[ntsammy5]

Universal is OK, but we haven't been since 2004.....

 

[BigDaddyRog]

We're doing Universal in May....we havent been in about 12 years...I am pretty excited and hope I dont come away disappointed.

I finally got around to taking some pics of my cart today....I think it came out OK....I really need to get rid of the brace holding my seat-backs but dont really know what to shop for!!!!

 

[PolynesianPixie]

Rog! That looks great!!!!! My DDs are here and they say it looks awesome! The green and black are cool together! Dang, you just may give Tungpo a run for his money!!!!!

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Thanks Ami and DDQ...my DD11 said I should put a personal plate on it with "GECKGHOST"...she said the flames on the hood look like a gecko face.

 

[PolynesianPixie]

She has a point. Not a bad name either!

 

[Colson39]

Wow, great job man, cart looks great?

What are you going to do if it rains? Or do you not care because the rain just falls off your head anyways (I know )?
