General Silver Dollar City Talk / Salt Water Taffy YUM!
« on: November 22, 2013, 02:56:19 PM »
Does anyone know the manufacturer of SDC's taffy?  I need to find out if its gluten free before I set in my winter supply.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Running to the Lights 5K
« on: November 08, 2013, 09:38:33 AM »
Hey! I've been sprung from the slammer (aka rehab center) a month earlier than expected thanks to the good ol' insurance co. that decided I was fit enough to be on my own and won't pay for further rehab.   :D  I convinced the hubs that I could make the trip to Branson, but after two days at home I have to admit he was right - I'm not ready for traveling!  I did tell Home Healthcare that I would be out of town a couple days for a race, and the response was, "You wanna do WHAT???"  At least I had a chance to laugh!  ;D

A shout out to Cinda @ Running to the Lights who is mailing my race packet to me so that I can at least have my t-shirt!   What a great organization!  If you are going, please post pics.  This will be the first year that I have missed the race. *sadness*  I will be at home sitting in my wheelchair waiting for pics! (Are you feeling sorry for me yet?)  ;D

General Silver Dollar City Talk / BAFS for 2013
« on: July 11, 2013, 11:24:49 AM »
I keep my passes at our condo and can't seem to find out what BAFs are available for July/August.  Can anyone help? It seems there is one for Moonlight Madness?  Maybe a $10 ticket?  I'm stumped.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / SDC Food Choices
« on: May 01, 2013, 08:37:41 AM »
Hey Everyone!  I got an email from SDC yesterday answering a few questions about food choices.  The Skillet Sausage Medley and their BBQ sauce is gluten free!  Yay for me!  :) This might be good news to some of you if, like me, you are gluten intolerant.  I went thru this whole thing last year, and then it was decided that test results were false.  This time around there's no doubt - I'm both lactose and gluten intolerant!   >:(  No more apple dumplings or cinnamon bread?  :(  My heart is breaking, but life goes on!!!  Oh, yeah!  They also told me that a list of ingredients is available at each food location.  Go SDC!!!

Did I miss something?  What happened to the Ducks?  They're not featured on the new SDC website.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Slow....
« on: March 07, 2013, 02:47:56 PM »
Is anyone else having trouble loading this site?  Is it just me or my computer?  I mean slow to the point that it almost puts my computer in sleep mode.  Other websites don't appear to be this slow, just...this....one....

Random Talk / Dec. 21, 2012
« on: December 21, 2012, 07:52:52 AM »
Is everyone still here?  Did SDC make it thru the apocalypse?  I'm still here!   ;D  I haven't seen anyone yet, other than my husband and the snowplow driver.  Neither of them looked like zombies, so I think we're in the clear!  How about the rest of you?   ;D ;D :o ;D ;D

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Most memorable moment of SDC 2012
« on: December 19, 2012, 08:33:17 PM »
I won't be around much next week to ask this question, so I suppose now is as good as ever.  Do you have a favorite memory or experience from this year?  I would have to say that mine would be going to World Fest.  This year was the first time I was able to go (darn teaching schedule!), and I truly loved everything about it - the music, food, shows - especially those crazy acrobats and - yes, those flag throwers in tights!  ;D Can't wait to do it again next year!!

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Favorite OTC Food?
« on: November 19, 2012, 07:08:46 PM »
Has anyone tried the red velvet funnel cake?  I might be adventurous this weekend and try it.  I will be searching the park for the apple dumplings.  The hubs would rather have a smoked turkey leg than anything!  They are really good!  What are all of you hoping to taste?

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Homestead Pickers
« on: November 18, 2012, 08:48:47 PM »
Is Steve still with the band?  I noticed a few weeks ago that he was absent, and that there was a "new picker".  He also plays with The Cleverlys so maybe he was busy with them that night?  I looked on their website, but didn't find anything.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Blacksmith Wanted
« on: November 18, 2012, 07:52:37 PM »
My hubs is learning yet another hobby; you know, as if wood carving wasn't enough!!   :)  He got a newsletter from IL Valley Blacksmith Assoc. in which he found this bit of info:

A full time seasonal (10 mo. per year) blacksmith job is available at SDC.  Looking for blacksmith with experience to make items for sale while demonstrating for guests.  Hourly wage as employee at SDC, tools supplied, items sold in retail store.  Hourly wage negotiable based on experience. If interested, contact HR at 417-338-2611. 

Now I wish he was better qualified!

General Silver Dollar City Talk / firearms
« on: August 22, 2012, 08:51:41 AM »
When did SDC stop selling firearms and muzzle loading equipment?  The hubs is not happy as he loved looking at the artistry of some of the pistols that we will never be able to afford.  And, needed some muzzle loading supplies that he didn't pick up last time we were there because he spent his money buying woodworking tools!!  I was sure they were still for sale when we were there in July.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Ice Cream!
« on: August 21, 2012, 10:09:33 AM »
Good news!  As I was standing in Hannah's Ice Cream Parlor, grieving over my loss of ice cream (I'm now lactose intolerant  *tear*), I was informed that Aunt Polly's and Cakes N Cones has lactose-free ice cream!  Woo! Hoo!  If you are lactose intolerant, head on down to one of those locations!  THANK YOU SDC!

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Unimportant Interesting Tidbits
« on: July 09, 2012, 09:39:18 PM »
I just found out that my dear, sweet condo neighbor just retired from SDC.  She worked in costuming for the past 8 yrs.  She just retired a couple of weeks ago and is moving to a larger condo because she feels like the walls are closing in on her now that she's home during the day.  She loved her SDC job.  This sweet, sweet lady is 80 yrs. old!!! I will miss her!!

I mentioned in another thread that the hubs and I took a boat ride on Taneycomo.  The captain pointed out interesting spots along the river including the Hershend's home.  I suppose he's telling the truth.  The house was very unassuming, but very cool - very large and made to look as though it was part of the cliff.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Those darn vouchers!!
« on: March 14, 2012, 04:48:25 PM »
I know this has been discussed to ad nauseum, but I'm still confused!  So, we have TWO season passes and all the vouchers - I bought my passes early.  Can I use two vouchers at the same time if only one of the pass holders is present?  I will be the only pass holder, but I'd like to treat my sister and niece.
