After going down, this is the entire Dollywood website. No buttons to access park info or buy tickets, just this.

My daughter is doing a musical theater summer camp where somebody wrote an original short play but they use existing music and I just discovered they're singing both "God Help the Outcasts" AND "Someday." I assume the writer wears both a belt and suspenders.

Working on a Saturday that is also your birthday doesn't sound fun, but when that "work" involves spending the afternoon at @WDFMuseum to see a @Pixar creative director discuss 20 years of the CARS franchise, it's not so bad

The fact that Epic Games/Fortnite can have such a strong relationship with Disney, and that Fortnite can also appear at HHN, is fantastic news for fans of, well, basically everything.

I only saw the Grand Floridian Gingerbread House once, and it was super cool. I'm bummed it's gone for those who never got a chance to see it, but as somebody who would like to see MORE changes with holiday experiences, I'm all for something new.

Automatically rebooked us on a flight more than 24 hours from now and the only way to even try to book anything else is to go back to departure desk, which means going BACK through customs. Not a fan of Air Canada right now

Icy Straight exists solely as a tourist stop for cruise ships, with shops, restaurants and attractions and it's even got theme park style lands

Serenade of the Seas is not a DCL ship, but Walt is still here, as part of a stairway art exhibit that is a collection of baby pictures of famous people.

It's not a theme park, but it is owned by Hershend, so it counts

Going to miss my Toy Story 5 screening due to vacation, but at least I saw the plane

Good friends, cold beer, an evening fire pit, and my new Disneyland bucket hat. Welcome to summer.

It's kinda wild that my return came in the form of photography and not words, but it's good to be back.

New Logo, and a new beginning of sorts for me. I'm here on temporary assignment for @laughingplace.com to cover KIDS RULE SUMMER at Disneyland Let's GOOOOO

Oh man, look at the line outside the Toy Story Parking Lot at 6:45am. Maybe it is a "fan-favorite landmark"

Been working on cleaning up my borderline hoarder mom's house. Came across some old cassette tapes, many unlabeled. Asked if she still had a cassette player around to see what's on them. She dug up this...

It certainly wouldn't be a major move akin to Iger coming in and buying Pixar, but if D'Amaro doesn't make a move to buy Ludo Studio in the next 12 months I'll be honestly shocked.

Considering how absolutely jacked The Rock can get, it's kinda wild that his live-action Maui looks so... normal.

My kid's music teacher put together a March Madness bracket of pop music with different competing decades from the '50s through today. The 2010s battle was "Best Day of my Life" vs. "Firework" or as my wife and I have dubbed it, The Mad T Party bracket
