Old Time Christmas and Hot Apple Dumplins will always be my favorite.

I also found a cool snack at the stand next to Riverside Ribhouse. It was brisket and coleslaw wrapped up in a tortilla. It was really good. I only saw them there during the Harvest Festival, though.

Apple dumplings, eggnog, coco ..you have been primed for the Christmas Festival already, and we haven't even gotten started!

I never knew about the snack near the Riverside Ribhouse I will have to check that one out. Yum, yum!

One thing I looked forward to all year was the tomato basil soup sold at Wagon Works during OTC, but they quit selling it.

my favorite sdc experience last year was the people. like the little boys whose mother wasn't paying close attention to him. he had to go to the bathroom, so he found a secluded area (sort of) dropped his pants, squatted down, mom got to him in the nick of time. also miss the people who work there, on a slow day the waitress at the buffet breakfast had time to play checkers with my grandchildren. miss the saloon show, could watch it all day long. and i miss my buffet breakfast.

Favorite experiences...taking my grandson to SDC for the 1st time and taking my wife at Christmas and her enjoying and wanting to repeat the experience. She loves the lights. Also, it was good to see Terry Sanders and speak with him a few times over the year...I helped TRAIN him when he first arrived on park in 1980.

Oh yeah...I was 17 when I helped train Terry. I will be 50 this summer. Time marches on!

Well, at least you have your priorities straight.

Not sure of the name but the wrapped apple dumpling with Cinnamon ice cream was really good.
I am not sure if this is only a Christmas offering but man it sure was good!.

Is "EVERYTHING" the proper answer? LOL Making memories, cinnamon bread, roller coasters, the shops, the bird show at EH, the night show at EH, the festivals (all of them), my grandchildren playing in "Half Dollar Hollar" then getting their Pa (my hubs) to buy each of them a build-an-animal in the shop next to HDH, riding the "froggies" with my grandchildren, roller coasters, riding the train w/the grandkids. The list goes on and on so I won't bore you. As you can see we just scratched the surface. Looking forward to making new memories in 2012.

okiebluegrass · March 13, 2012, 07:39:23 AM

Well, I got there around 5 on a Tuesday and I was absolutely the only person on FitH. That was pretty awesome

Gilligan · March 13, 2012, 02:59:36 PM

BusyMom, I think EVERYTHING is the best answer of all!
