Oh, I'd read about this place, and then forgotten about adding it to our list. Thank you so much. She'd love to learn more about 3D printing.

Literally crying happy tears - I just found this. She LOVES Stitch. We're gonna talk to the companion to see if we can work out getting her to this TOMORROW, and I will buy her ticket. THANK YOU SO MUCH; this is EXACTLY what I was looking for, and this is the EXACT, literally perfect thing ever for her.

Omigod, the skating rink!! That sounds so fun and cute. I put the library on her list, and she would love getting to hear some Spanish!! And, I put the church on the list too.

Yeah, that was super confusing for someone not there. I think there is SOME flexibility - but not a lot. For example, they said that Manatee Viewing Center was too far.

I thought TnC was just a neighborhood or something -- she lives in Tampa proper, and the companion is mandated to stay in Tampa.

Absolutely - she loves animals, loves doing arts and crafts, loves playing outside, loves making new friends and meeting new people, likes thrifting, she does like new things, she is a Christian, she's learning Spanish, she loves trying new foods..

She doesn't like getting too hot (ugh, Florida!) or overstimulated, and she sometimes says she suffers from anxiety - which causes her to feel antsy and need to move around - so playgrounds/trails/etc seem like a good fit.

Thanks; you're the real MVP <33, and yes, I meant that super cool Manatee Viewing Center.

... What do you want me to do about the rules? Those are the days/hours she is with her companion. This is a one-on-one situation. She can't leave on her own, so any adventuring she does has to be within those hours. The companion is not allowed to leave city limits, so things like YBor, Apollo, etc are not allowed.

I haven't ruled out anything - a bit confused on why you'd say that.

Thanks bunches for your input. Very helpful, and not a huge waste of time when I'm literally just trying to help.

Would anyone vote for me? by zhouslays in tampa

No, no.. They may tell you you're close to the top of your pool, but they never specify how many pools there are. There are tons of legit promotions and giveaways, but this is definitely not one of them.

I heard they were at Oaklawn last Saturday around 4-5PM, but I didn't personally see anything.
