This afternoon we decided to go and see the new Bass Pro Shop. Have any of you been? This place is HUGE! Eddie and his friends call this the Redneck Disney World, and I'm sure I looked like a redneck walking around taking pictures, but I just could not help myself. The scenes they set up were just so cool! Check out the pictures. The picture to the right is actually a painting on one of the walls.
This was a scene set going from the 1st floor to the 2nd. They had animal scenes, and fish scenes all through the store.
This is the stairs, they almost look like they are in the woods.
Bri wrote a letter to Santa while dad kept telling her to ask Santa for a bass boat for him. She told him he needed to do that himself, but since he just would not stop she asked him. Eddie took a picture of the letter while she wrote, I found it very funny. If any of you still have not seen Santa, as it occurred to me today that we had not, I would recommend this place. The line did not take that long, and you get to drool over bass boats and pontoon boats while you are in line. Personally the pontoon boat with leather couches is more to my liking, but Eddie likes the faster than light bass boats. Now, when you fish aren't you supposed to sit and wait? So why do you need a big fast, fancy boat?

Okay now one of our main reasons to go was to see Santa. They had a cool set up with BB guns, crafts, letters to Santa, trains and of course Santa himself.

In addition to getting to see the big jolly elf you get a FREE 4x6 photo and you can take all the pictures you want while the child is in Santa's lap. The picture is good quality and on the back of the card they put your picture in is a number. You can get on their website and put in the code and see your pictures and of course buy some if you like. You don't have too, but you do have that option. The prices are not too unbearable either. 
While we wondered around this store checking out all the things there we found an area where they were giving away basically a trip. It is in the Outdoor Traveler Center. For $59 you have one full year to take a trip to Myrtle Beach, SC; Smoky Mountains; Orlando; Las Vegas; or Charleston. You can pick one destination, there may be more, I can't remember all of them. The $59 is for a 3 day/2 night weekday stay and you receive a $25 gift certificate to the Bass Pro Shop. Okay, what is the catch you ask, well you do have to go to a sales pitch about time shares, I actually thought this would turn Eddie away, but it didn't. They told us less than an hour, unless you show interest, so unless you plan to buy DON'T show any interest. You do have to book it between a Sunday - Thursday, but you could book it on a Thursday arrival and get the weekday rate for Friday night as well, you could also book additional nights at a discounted rate. We chose to take the deal and plan to go to the Smoky Mountains either in the Spring or Fall, we have 30 days to book our trip so we will need to make our plans over the next few weeks. The only out of pocket expense for you is you do have to pay the taxes and any other hotel expenses you incur. Of course, the trip expense is all yours too, but the place to stay is pretty cheap. To qualify you have to be over 25, and make 40+ a year. They do not check on the salary or your credit, it is an honesty thing, if you tell them you make that they will take you on your word. He told us if you tell them you make less they will turn you away. We spoke with Steven Hall, he is the manager and he is a very nice guy. He told us that anyone who came and signed up for the trip and told them we referred them then we got an additional $10 gift card, so if you go up there and qualify please give them mine and Eddie's name. If your interested and want to talk to me about it just give me a call.
