Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, Rubber Ducks and Port-a-Potties
On a regular day in the summer I deal with food, weird entertainment and toilets. Who else can say that? The food and toilets…sure, but I’m going to throw rubber ducks into the mix now too. I mean, some times I sit at my desk and wonder how this happened. I jokingly call myself the…

Morey’s Fears Just Wasn’t Enough
Morey’s Fears was a lot of work. And also a lot of fun. Buying decorations, installing decorations and working the evenings we were open was a blast. But some of us just had to see more. For many years many of us had been visiting other theme parks and attractions during October. That’s a…

What If I Worked In A Bank Like My Plan?
Without a doubt I can tell you most of my colleagues fell into this profession. I’m pretty sure the general public does not sit in a statistics lecture when they are 20 years old and dream of working at an amusement park (I’m sure I do know one or two of them though). My plan?…
You Gotta Break Some Eggs to Make an Omelet

A “Haunted” Pier in the Middle of a Ghost Town

Fall… Boo
For people like myself who unfortunately don’t live near the coast, the offshore media has a way of (inadvertently?) trying to get us to forget about summertime almost as soon as the “off season” is on (unless of course, there’s a big storm to talk about). I am not…
Get a Taste of Fall
What do you think of when you think of the fall season? …I think it’s time to eat because bikini season is over for the next 6 months! I especially want to eat some good comfort food like chili and chowder.In case you don’t already know we are having our first annual Souper Sunday…

The Waterpark Bell
“Ding Dong”….. nope, that’s not someone at the door for dinner. It’s the sound you hear about every 5 minutes in Raging Waters and Ocean Oasis Waterparks. When guests ask me what “that sound” is for, I like to have a little fun…. I have used…
What is Boat Tag?
...and why is it fun? Let me tell you where it is first. Boat Tag is at the front of adventure pier and is the home of many many bouncy yellow balls. It is also the home of 5 boats (yes the floating kind).Oh ya! I almost forgot! You can find me there too as the Boat Tag Assistant…
Scanning 201
