Rock and Sandi's Daily Adventures:
Still lots of videos and photos we are going through and organizing today as we plan our next road trip.
Randomness for the day:
Heard this on the radio today and had to look up this story. In 1945, Betty Lou Oliver, stepped onto the elevator inside the Empire State Building. It dropped 75 floors! She survived with injuries. However, earlier that day, a plane crashed into the building causing her severe burns, broken pelvis, back and neck. And how is your day at work going?
Til next time, start getting that hot chocolate ready for us it's winter in the Smoky Mountains- Rock & Sandi - Adventures That ROCK

Are there any host hotels for this event?
That would be cool if you guys could get some more SpongeBob SquarePants guests
If you’re wondering how cold it is in East Tennessee.. This is people walking across the Little Pigeon River, near the The Old Mill in Pigeon Forge, TN, next to Gatlinburg, Tennessee… Would you walk across this? Hard no for me 🤣 Smoky Mountain Fan Fest

I’m sorry I kinda fanboy a little bit but , it’s not a everyday thing getting a notification like this to brighten up your day! I’m sorry if this is to much Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Patts but I just wanted to say 👋 hi again! It was still and amazing time meeting you in person! ( I only got a pic as a human ) but I’ll still take it! For anyone who dosent know my friend here this picture should be obvious of who she is !🤣 I met her at Smoky Mountain Fan Fest and it was amazing time !
Gotta do a little free advertising for our good friends at Smoky Mountain Fan Fest while we're out buying video games today. If you have a friend that has a small business, help support them. Even if its something as simple as sharing a picture.
Who would like to see Rosa come to Smoky Mountain Fan Fest ????
Let us know in the comments!!
-Team Rosa
I am terrible at taking pics at cons and making posts during the weekends of cons. I like to soak I'm everything and sure, pics live forever. But living in the moment is more important to me. Met a lot of great people and had a great time. I still haven't done my Smoky Mountain Fan Fest recap for personal reasons I'll get into when I actually do it.
But I plan on doing a The ScareFest recap as soon as I can as well. I'll do some more posts and shout outs when I get back home, settled in and unpacked. I'd like to go ahead and thank all my neighbors who were great and put up with my unorthodox method I've picked up at cons (I walk around a lot and don't stay at my table the whole time) I'll give out proper shout outs when I get back home and get their business cards out, but you know who you are.
Look yall Ty Shute made it on ESPN
I don't know if this made it to the gallery, but to the gentleman who asked, I found your picture without the fan badge!
