Hot Dawgs Again

Since I posted a few times about this place closing down, I thought it would be fun to post about it's Phoenix-style rise from the ashes. Behind this sign is a CVS store, to the right of this picture is it's parking lot where the old Nathan's Hot Dog store used to be. So technically they tore it down and put up a parking lot.

Not too far away from where it was, the new Nathan's Hot Dog restaurant is a lot smaller with no arcades at all. This sign seems to be pointing the wrong way, but you have to drive completely around this shopping center to get to the drive thru.

Blurry picture inside. We should have taken a few more pictures but it was crowded and we were kinda hungry.

The Hot Dog was just as tasty as ever. We ate in the car watching The Walking Dead episodes on our Nook. Did we make zombie-noises while eating our lunch? Maybe....

Oh, I guess I should also mention a Happy Thanksgiving to everypony tomorrow! Go eat turkey and not hot dogs of course!

Breakfast Vacation


For our vacation we made reservations for breakfast at the Grand Floridian resort at Disney World. This is one of the fancier places to stay, even just for breakfast, so of course we had to take some pictures to try and get more value out of it.
The highlight was the epic Mickey Waffles. Disney magic hits again with what could have been simple waffles, but were somehow oh-my-goodness way more delicious than waffles normally are.


 Here's the lobby where there are ritzy shoppes everywhere.


Random lobby decoration. Is this some kind of old-style hamster cage or something? Take a picture of it anyway?

Some architect or designer somewhere should know that someponies somewhere DO appreciate this kind of detail in the floor tiling.

Pumpkin Surprise


So adorable! Leaving for work this morning and a squirrel was nibbling on our pumpkin friend Big 30. We managed to snap a couple of pictures to share!

A couple of weeks after Halloween and the cold air is preserving Big 30 pretty well. We can thump him, he's nice and solid. His pumpkin pal Little John is not doing so good he's in a melted slump there in front.

Awwwww! We were very careful not to make any sudden movements to scare this cutie away. Judging by the size of Big 30, our Squirrel Buddy should be a neighbor and recurring visitor for a while.


Because it's pumpkin-related, I thought I'd post this picture we took at Stew Leonard's. We thought it was funny they had a sign advocating the photo op. Of course we were going to take a photo with this thing!
