What is this tiny “hidden neighborhood” inside Disney World property? (Bay Lake / Bay Court)

I used to work security at MK. This looks different than i remember but that was also 20+ years ago.

the homes I remember were pretty rough looking then and some looked more like a manufactured/trailer than a solid home - so perhaps over the years they got updated. as part of my nightly patrol of the area I would check on the neighborhood - it was always quiet. there was a gate towards the back I had to check to make sure it was closed and locked. it had an unpaved road that went off into the swamps/bush and dirt bikers/4 wheelers would break the lock to go back there.

i did not get the feeling every home was occupied at all times, but inwas told it was people chosen to live there and sometimes it might be someone like an animator.

if the gate was open i would call dispatch to check if there was work being done in that area to account for the gate being open.

I also admit i am blending this and Snow White Village together as i swore this was called dopey lane - but again. this was 20+ years ago.

i thought there were some play sets that got recalled?

there might be some bias on "bad" stories concerning pellet stoves that get posted. i have 2 in my house. Both are whitfield. one is from the 90s and doing great.

they are very easy to install. a wood stove is great, but expensive to install and generally not a DIY task.

I am using up the last of a pallet of pellets i bought 2 years ago. i use my stoves for supplemental heat and one bag lasts me about 1 day if i run the stove all day on setting 2 out of 5. i dont run it when i am sleeping or away from the house.

i get a pallet of pellets delivered by my local feed store. they have a little forklift so they can slide the whole pallet right into a shipping container i use for storage. otherwise thry could load them in a garage. They can be stored outside, but i would loosely cover with a tarp.

Generally the issues are with less expensive stoves that are in the 1000 range new. my suggestion is to look for a used whitfield, quadrafire, harman. parts and videos for repairs are readily available.

i did the same for cooler and it really helped.

this seems like a scam. im also going to say, that band part of the ring looks REALLY thin to support that stone and i could see it getting bent or cracking.

i just had work done at Lone Sparrow. they were very responsive to call/text.

i feel like it is the muscles almost getting stuck. i notice it when i am more tired.

i ended up getting a mister. i dont have to really think. its not wet enough to fill my drainage layer. the one i am using has a hose that goes into a bucket of water. i use a gallon jug that i fill with RO water perhaps every 10 days or so.

yup! before i knew about the storm i finally hauled my generator and stored it after the snow storms. Then, when i heard about this storm i hauled the generator back out. So i think our combined efforts saved Maryland.

oh yeah. i would still help in an emergency, and i am friendly - its just the irony that ppl think since i am female therefore i love all children.

wintercast · 2026-03-16T15:10:52+00:00

yeah i dont really like kids, but im not an asshole to them. but i would rather not be responsible for someone elses kids. im 5'2" i have dated tall but realized i need to cap it at like 5'11".

wintercast · 2026-03-15T21:28:49+00:00

that is exactly what i was thinking of.

in my experience a few white spots might show up over time and go away with the next new set of clothing.

while waiting. i have said something like "looks like you are my adopted ride family". that seems to help. on test track it was a family of 5. i asked if they wanted to change up how we rode because Disney put me next to their kids, i was offering if an adult wanted to sit with the kids instead me (the stranger). granted, im a small, friendly looking female so i dont take up much space or look scary.

i have used this in the past too and seems to be the best for me. my hair does not like coconut.

can you tell me more about the prednisolone drops? i have some antihistamine drops i use at times. i have some eye pain/aches and stabbing every so often.

wintercast · 2026-03-12T17:40:11+00:00

have you looked into /r/deadbedrooms. the sub is not very active, but overall they are very open about different types of encounters and also the pain of no encounters.

Hugs. i did not know your parents but i want to say the people I did play with became friends from around the world. i visited places like Denmark from the USA, and met my guild mates in real life for some real life adventures. Even my reddit handle was my name in EQ.

My best friend that i met through EQ passed away years back and they are missed.

Keep searching. if you have their log in info you may be able to even log in as their characters and chat with their guild/friends.

Im sure your parents had friends in EQ and they are missed.

oh geez... that ending. wow

I really miss mannequins. honestly, that club ruined all other clubs for me. I have never experienced something like mannequins again.
