I think that one was called Fun World. It had the carousel you could see from the outside, right? I never got to go and always resented my parents for not taking me. :-p
FunSpot, on the other hand I did go to once. It was a core memory and I kinda ruined it when I took my kids there this past summer and realized it was kinda rundown. They did add a bowling alley which was fun. Also, my younger son could not be pried off the bumper cars… I wish I still had kid blinders!

Good god it must be nice to be a rich boomer. You’re really gonna buy a house because you can avoid a 90 minute bus ride from Logan now? Just drop $500k just like that? Fuck you.

Why RDU to MHT? Simple. They don’t fly to BOS and they wanted to add service to the Boston area. BOS charges high fees. They’re a low cost airline with only 15 planes.
I guess the question is, why MHT over PVD? My guess is that MHT is probably pretty desperate to get more business, so it doesn’t die a slow death like ORH is currently. Also, it’s a differentiating factor. They’re the only ones flying this route now. Southwest already does PVD to RDU. Moreover, any new destination for a pitiful airport like MHT gets noticed.

The last time we went, I got one with the my birth year printed on it. I kept it just because I liked the idea of having a Funspot token as old as I was.

If you look at their other destinations from Raleigh - many in Florida - it creates another connection NH to popular FL locations

Sammy's Sugar Shack in Milford had dark today. Not sure if it's very dark though.

Serious question, what do you do with multiple gallons? I tend to go through a half gallon in a year, and that's with a bit of baking that uses a lot more than occasional pancakes would otherwise.

I was hoping someone would post about this! Any recommendations for places? Doesn't matter where.

Idk I was looking at Avelo reviews and it seems like 50% of their flights have delays of more than 3 hours. That's a deal breaker for me

And it is apparently a very famous staple in early gamers history. I believe it was because it held the donkey kong cabinet which early gamers would try for the world record. I believe it was because the circuit board was unique an allowed for some time to be shaved off. It was a major destination and the epicenter of the DK World Record scandal I believe.
Look on YouTube for Billy Mitchell and Donkey Kong. I believe there’s a documentary and has lots of vintage NH video. I thought it was fascinating.
Had no clue until I was like 35.

Spent all my childhood going. Had no clue it was super famous until like 3 years ago.

Recently revisited as an adult and the tokens are still alive and well. Funspot is untouched by time.

As long as there is some good news with it. After everything it's good to hear it is not a loss.

That cold snap in late feb saved it I think. We are having a good season. Not amazing but decent.

I still have a big purple one! It's plastic instead of metal, it definitely dropped out of one of the token pushing games.

It’s been one of the best seasons we have seen in a long time my wife and her mother have a very small operation and they have been collecting sap for the last month now and the bags are still filling up every two days

Probably a bit early. I’m only dipping into dark out of amber.

We use it in our coffee instead of sugar and it's delightful!
