    Burlington cops in love; need community’s help to win dream wedding – Burlington Times News - February 11, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Rachel Berry|Times-News

    Some people meet their future spouse at a bar or on a dating app.Phillip Baulding and Raven Hazelwood met while responding to a late-night burglar alarm call at a laundromat.

    Baulding and Hazelwood are both officers with the Burlington Police Department. Soon after Hazelwood began at the department in summer 2018, she went on a call with Baulding.

    They hadn't met before, but after working together that nightthey began to talk more and became friends. They soon began spending time together outside of work, and they began to develop feelings for one another.The couple began dating in November2018.

    "We could really talk to each other about the job," Baulding said. "It's definitely important to have somebody who understands law enforcement. It's hard to talk to somebody who knows it, but doesn't really know some of the stressors that we have to go through."

    Hazelwood said she knew from when they started datingthat Baulding was the one.

    They dated for two years and had a son together in February 2020. They had talked about the possibility of marriage, but once their son was born, he became the priority, and marriage fell to the back burner.

    In September2020, Baulding proposed during a vacation at Carolina Beach.He had planned in advance to propose during the vacation, but spent the whole tripwaiting for the right moment.

    "I was a nervous wreck all the time. I don't know how she didn't notice it," Baulding said.

    It came down to their final day there, and he suggested they go for one last walk along the beach.

    They walked down a boardwalk, and at the endwas a gazebo, where he wanted to propose. Once they reached the gazebo, they saw it was full of people.

    This worked out well, though, as they had a crowd of strangers cheering them on, Baulding said. He asked a woman to take photos, and he got down on one knee.

    "I didn't expect it at all," Hazelwood said. "It wasa huge surprise to me."

    Baulding was so nervous that he tried to put the ring back in his pocket after Hazelwood said yes.

    "I was like, 'Well, are you gonna give me the ring?'" Hazelwood said.

    After becoming engaged, the couplebegan to make wedding plans. They didn't have a lot of money saved up for a large ceremony and at first thought, they would only be able to afford a small wedding with close family. Hazelwood has family members who aresick, so they want to have the ceremony soon, so they're able to come.

    It hurt them not to be able to invite their friends, especially the other officers they work with.

    "There's a special bond and a special friendship that comes with the people that we work with," Hazelwood said."It's indescribable. I would take a bullet for these people, and it wouldn't feel right celebrating our wedding day without them."

    When they began touring wedding venues, they fell in love with the Bella Collina Mansion in Stokesdale. It was out of their price range, though, and they wouldn't be able to afford a wedding there.

    Then Hazelwood's mother heard about a contest the venueis doing to give away a free wedding. The coupleentered, and they'renow finalists for the prize along with three other couples.Once they discovered the contest, they realized it might be possible for them to have the wedding of their dreams and to invite all their friends.

    After receiving around 540 applications, the Bella Collina Mansion's owner narrowed the pool down to the top 10 based on essays written by the applicants. The top 10 applicants went to the venuefor interviews with a panel of judges.

    The judgeswere supposed to narrow the pool to three couples after the interviews, but the owners said it was such a hard decision that they chose four couples instead.

    Voting runs from Feb. 7-14 to decide who will be the ultimate winner. People can vote on the venue's website as many times as they want.

    Baulding and Hazelwood said one reason they decided to do the contest is to engage with the community. They knew if they made it to the final stages, their hometown would need to vote for them to win.

    They hope by hearing about their story, people will realize police officers are human, too. Although the uniform can sometimes put people off, Baulding and Hazelwoodare members of this community just like everyone else, and they hope this contest helps them connect with the community and helps people to look beyond the badge.

    "We're not there for the money. We don't get paid that much," Hazelwood said. "We're not there because we're malice people who want to cause harm to anyone. We're there because we want to help. And we want the community to be able to see that we're their friends. We're on their side."

    8 Unexpected Spots to Tie the Knot in and Around Bucks County – Conejo Valley Happening - February 11, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    You're probably familiar with Bucks County Community College for their educational offerings, but they're also the site of the beautiful Tyler Gardens. The Tyler Mansion is arguably the grandest home ever built in Bucks County and believed to be the last of the great estates ever constructed in the United States. In 1987, Tyler Hall (as the mansion is now known) and Tyler Formal Gardens were placed on the National Register of Historical Places. The Formal Gardens were constructed in 1931 by George F. and Stella Elkins Tyler to provide a formal landscape setting for their estate, Indian Council Rock. The four-tier Formal Gardens were influenced by French and Italian gardens and feature varieties of flora, beautiful lush lawns, dramatic stone walls and staircases, gravel walks, fountains, and bronze sculptures. Today, the Gardens provide a stunning backdrop for a wedding with immaculate landscaping, historic buildings and plenty of old world charm. (Tip: Piccolo Trattoria, a Happening List Winner for Catering, is one of the exclusive vendors at Tyler Gardens.) Tyler Gardens are located within the Bucks County Community College's Newtown Campus at 275 Swamp Road, Newtown, PA.

    Does Tully Have a Baby in ‘Firefly Lane’? She’s Unsure of Motherhood – Distractify - February 11, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Warning: SPOILERS for Firefly Lane are ahead.

    Netflix's latest addition is Firefly Lane, and it has all the makings of a hit, binge-watchable drama: There's love, family issues, and conflict all within the span of a three-decades-long friendship. The show centers around Tully Hart (Katherine Heigl) and Kate Mularkey (Sarah Chalke), who become best friends in middle school.

    As they grow up, they attempt to remain close despite having different ideas about careers, right vs. wrong, and the love of Johnny Ryan (Ben Lawson).

    The series was adapted from the 2008 novel of the same name by Kristin Hannah, but there have already been key differences that have kept readers-turned-viewers on their toes.

    The character of Tully's boyfriend, Max Brody (Jon Ecker), was added to the show, and the two face one considerable hurdle in their relationship in the early aughts.

    Does Tully have a baby in Firefly Lane? Keep reading for the refresher on the storyline, and to find out what happens.

    Even at the beginning of Tully and Kate's friendship in the '70s, it was clear that Kate was the nurturer, and Tully wasn't interested in being beholden to a family.

    Though Kate struggles when she finds out she is pregnant with Johnny's baby in the '80s, she ends up dedicating herself to motherhood.

    Meanwhile, Tully has admitted several times that she likes the idea of having kids but that she's not sure she ever wants to be a mom.

    Article continues below advertisement

    "Raising kids seems like the most impossible thing ever," Tully tells Kate in an early '00s scene in "Love Is a Battlefield." "I literally can't imagine it, and you do it every f-----g day."

    As Tully laments the idea of motherhood, she learns that the pregnancy test she has taken is positive.

    In the following episode, "Sweet Child O' Mine," Tully chats with Kate about what she should do about her surprise pregnancy.

    Article continues below advertisement

    "I don't know how to be a mother," Tully shares.

    When she tells the father, Max, about the news, he's fully on board. But, Tully still isn't convinced.

    Once she meets with her mom, Cloud (Beau Garrett), Tully decides that she isn't hesitant about motherhood anymore. She marries Max, but she loses the pregnancy after getting an infection in the penultimate episode of Season 1.

    "It feels like a dream. I lost the baby," Tully tells Kate.

    Afterward, Tully and Max explore getting an annulment, but Tully later acknowledges that she was deeply affected by the loss.

    In the season finale, she shares that she's not sure if she would want to try again but that she wants to start over with Max. He is done chasing her, but she asks him to meet her at the gazebo where they got married for another chance.

    Article continues below advertisement

    But, it doesn't appear as if he feels the same way about a new beginning. Max fails to show up at the gazebo, leaving Tully heartbroken.

    The emotional storyline has some viewers wondering if Tully will have a baby in the future on the show or if she'll reconcile with Max.

    The rest is here:

    Ingenuity and inventiveness provide a way to visit despite restrictions – ECM Publishers - February 9, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Sometimes, what matters most for a project to succeed is simply the spark of an idea and many pairs of hands to bring the idea to fruition. Thats what happened for a group of people at Stang Precision in Paynesville, shortly before Thanksgiving.

    A family friend with a relative in assisted living called my father to talk about it, said Chad Stang. Their conversation generated the idea and he talked to me. Its a great cause. We thought that was something we could do.

    Precautions to protect the elderly and disabled from COVID-19 in 2020, came at a great price, with very limited contact from family and friends. Visiting outdoors was a seasonal option, but the colder fall weather ended that.

    Because of a slowdown in business around the same time, employees of Stang Precision were able to help construct a place for relatives and friends to visit their loved ones at Stearns Place in Paynesville, one of the locations where visitation was restricted.

    It was a win-win project, to do something for the community and use our folks to do it, said Stang. We had excellent support from the hospital staff.

    An already-existing gazebo was in the right place to be used for a new Visitation Station. There is a hallway connecting the gazebo to Stearns Place assisted living facility.

    The project included finishing the gazebo. The structure was in place, but to be used in winter it needed some work. The workers put in a dividing wall to separate visitors from residents. They insulated the gazebo and installed heat.

    Using equipment from Safeguard Security in Cold Spring, a microphone and a speaker were installed on each side of the dividing wall. The top half of the wall is glass.

    Stang Precision employee Ryan Symanietz is up on a ladder, working on the Visitation Station taking shape in a gazebo at Stearns Place in Paynesville. He was joined that day by Bruce Stang.

    All of the labor was donated, as well as most of the supplies. Spray foam insulation was completed by McPherson Products, St. Cloud. Bork Lumber provided wood and expertise.

    Everything had been set in motion very quickly so that the gazebo would be ready for Thanksgiving weekend.

    It was really a community effort, said Stang. We knew we could help and didnt think twice. It was really humbling and heartwarming and exciting to be part of this.

    It was just amazing, said Angie Gerhardson, housing manager. Once word got out about the project, the tenants were just buzzing. It brought a lot of hope and joy around here, just knowing someone cared that much.

    The visitation station was used many hours each day throughout the holiday season. Residents sign up for one-hour slots. Up to eight people fit comfortably in the gazebo, a nice location to visit in any weather.

    It was really a blessing a priceless gift to both the seniors and the family members, said DuDonne Andrie, community marketing for CentraCare Health in Paynesville. We saw quite a few social media posts about the Visitation Station. People were saying they wished they could have that at all of the senior sites.

    That spurred more action and now there are three visitation stations in Paynesville: at Stearns Place, the hospital and the care center. The other two were funded through donations to the CentraCare Foundation and were finished right before Christmas.

    Stang hopes that people reading about what was done in Paynesville will take the idea and run with it.

    Good deeds lead to more good deeds, he said. Its a very do-able thing.

    We hope this story will spur other people to do good, Andrie said.

    For more information about the Visitation Stations, contact DuDonne Andrie at (320) 243-7903, ext. 42276.

    An already-existing gazebo next to Stearns Place in Paynesville was finished and set up to be a place for visits with residents. The project was completed just in time for Thanksgiving and the holiday season. The labor was donated, as were much of the supplies, by area businesses. Ryan Symanietz is preparing lumber for the gazebo.

    This Is How You BBQ | The Feed | sandiegomagazine.com – San Diego Magazine - February 9, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Like a good mullet, the party of Bowlegged BBQ is in the back. The front is functional stucco with a barred screen door. Its either a shame the front doesnt speak to the sheer joy inside, or its a blessing because the people who know get to keep this secret for themselves.

    One step inside and you get itthe pop, the visual confetti, the unrelenting stimuli. An oil painting of a man with a guitar abuts one of a man blowing a trumpet, photos upon photos of famed and lesser-known Black musicians. Two foot-tall figurines play brass instruments atop the cooler full of waters and Shastas and Gatorades. Gigantic basketball shoes hang near the back door. Not sure if theyre Shaquille ONeals or not, but anyone with feet that big definitely has a sports drink named after them. Every inch of this place is an homage to some great player or cultural force. Its hoarding as a joyful creative impulse.

    Music thumps and screams out back on the patio. A single, muscular music machine, blinking various colored lights to the beat, absolutely blares Jackson 5, Heavy D, old soul and R&B and rap and hip-hop. Its 6 p.m. on a Wednesday, dark and a little cold outside. But crackling embers and woodsmoke from a few fire pits warms the whole place and backyard lights set the mood.

    This is what the backyard of a barbecue joint should look likelong picnic tables made of whatever material school cafeteria tables are, two gazebos the sort you can buy at Home Depot and assemble if youve got cold beer to offer a few handy friends, art painted by locals (you can tell because some is half-finished on a table), a full camper trailer Id like to live in for a while.

    I dont want elevated design with my barbecue; I sure dont want a plant wall. I prefer that lawn chairs and brisket aesthetic, like Im borrowing fresh air outside someones home. Bowlegged is nicer than that, like the yard of a friend who owns a hammer or two and tends to entertain everyone on the block. Seven or eight men sit at a table under a gazebo, holding court. No one else is here. Feels like we walked in on a family gathering. Turns out we have.

    How you guys doing? says a man walking over, huge smile, arms out for the welcome, a little bowlegged. I note this only because Ive read about himKen Stance, proudly bowlegged (its listed as his middle name on the website), and the restaurants namesake.

    Get you a drink? he asks. A minute later, he returns with two ice cold drinks. He explains his familys lived in this part of town, Oak Park, for generations. He owned this corner lot at Market and Toyne Streets and wasnt sure what to do with it. When his sister, Maria J Reese, retired from the educational system, she convinced him to turn it into a restaurant. Shed cook all the sides, hed just need to handle the meat.

    I didnt know a thing about barbecue, but I said, Well, why not? Give me a couple months. I ruined so much good meat. He laughs.

    That was 2017, and now hes figured it out. The pork ribs are especially tender and juicy, and the sauce on both that and the brisket is the sort of thing that would make computer paper taste good. We dig through the sidesdirty rice with what seems to have a great little whiff of oregano, cheesy mac n cheese, sweet greens, creamy black-eyed peas, savory cornbread. Business has been brisk, Stance says, even better during the shutdown (barbecue by the pound is a great model for takeout, since its always been the thing you bring to a picnic or outdoor get-together anyhow). Theyre looking at opening a second location.

    I tell him how much I love this back patio and how I might just squat here for a while if thats okay. You should see it on weekends; its packed, he says, giving the obligatory clarification that its done safely spaced. People out here playing dominos and cards. Its a good time.

    Halfway through our meal his brother, Carlos Stance, checks in on us, all smiles. We gather our leftover brisket and walk out that door. I look back at that unflashy front of Bowlegged and head home to spill its secret a little more.

    These are 5 romantic and free spots to spend Valentine’s Day in the Brockton area – Enterprise News - February 9, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Darvence Chery|The Enterprise

    Here are some places you could spend this Valentine's Day with a loved one just don't forget your mask.

    As you gaze at 13 acres of pond, looking at the horizon, you see a bench, fit precisely fortwo, perfectly made for getting close over conversation. Johnson Pond is located in Raynham and runs between North Main and Pleasant streets and off of Johnson Street.

    If you want to give her the ring well before spring, the gazebo inside the Borden Colony Complex in Raynhammakes for great intimacy amidst the cold. The complex even provides great hiding spots in the playground and the athletic fields in case you want an audience. The complex is located on King Phillip Street.

    If you want to spookyour scream queen, the park affectionately known as "The Nip" will be your spot. The lake has been known to be inhabited by paranormal beings, whether it be Native American ghosts, UFOs and cryptic creatures. The Nipis located offRoute 104 (Pleasant Street) on the southeastern corner of the pond near Lakeside Drive.

    Don't let this historical industrial site fool you.

There's even walking trails along the waterfalls if you care for scenery.The Bridgewater Iron Works Park starts on High Street, but make sure to get there early in the day as the parking only seats six cars.

    After a hearty meal at the nearby Westgate Mall or another location in the city, you decide to walk off those calories taking a tour of Brockton's own D.W Field Park.

    ‘Firefly Lane’ Recap: Season 1, Episode 10 Who Dies in the Finale? – TVLine - February 9, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Warning: The following contains spoilers for the finale of Firefly Lane. If youve yet to finish your binge, you might want to put off reading this recap until you have.

    Is a finale still a finale if theres not actually anything final about it? That was the question we were left asking after watching Episode 10 of Netflixs Firefly Lane. Not only did it leave Johnnys fate unresolved and Seans future uncertain, it revealed that Tully and Kate hadnt remained Firefly Lane girls forever. But why?!? We were never told! But if you read on, Ill fill in as many of the blanks as did Auld Lang Syne.

    1974 | In the furthest-back of our three eras, as Christmas rolled around, Kates dad Bud seemed to be getting wise to wife Margies infidelity. You get what you need? he asked rather pointedly when she returned from the longest grocery run in history with flushed cheeks and a guilty conscience. Across the street, Cloud was forced to reveal to Tully that shed given their regular allowance from Gran to Leon before theyd broken up. What were they supposed to do for food, then? Theres bread, said the Mother of the Year. Make toast! Even if she hadnt been high as a kite, she wouldnt have been worried. Leon had left behind a stash of drugs; as soon as she sold it, theyd be rolling in green. And not the kind that she was so fond of smoking, either. Well, not only that kind, anyway.

    While trimming the tree at the Mularkeys, Cloud did what she does best and made a scene, first by mentioning that shed seen Margie in town with some guy, then by pointing out that the factory at which Bud worked made more than the Mars Rover, it also made bombs that were then dropped on villages in Vietnam. Erm, who wants a Christmas cookie? asked Margie. After Buds blood pressure came back down, at least a little, he privately informed his wife that shed have to make a choice. OK, Margie replied. And since we know she was still with him years later, she obviously picked him over Bruce from church. But that wasnt the end of the drama on Firefly Lane. Shortly, Cloud was busted for dealing drugs, and to Tully and Kates mutual horror, the former was sent to live with her Gran.

    1980S | In our middle era, Kate and Johnnys chemistry was on full display at KPOC to the point that only Kate didnt notice it at a Carol Tries It meeting. Afterwards, she insisted to Tully that she and her crush had agreed to just be friends. But apparently, her breasts hadnt gotten the memo. Ive never actually seen a bosom heaving in real life, cracked Tully. If Kate was still into their boss, would she be going to the office Christmas party with a blind date who was said to be a megahunk? In fact, she might, suggested Tully to make Johnny jealous. Mind you, they never made it to the bash. As Kates date arrived to pick her up, she received a call that her father had had a heart attack. So, uh, rain check? said the megahunk. After Bud had been declared out of the woods and Johnny had driven Kate home, the Aussie revealed that Margie had asked him to stay overnight in Seans room so that her daughter wouldnt be all alone. Was that opportunity that we heard knocking?

    In fact, it was. At last, Kate planted a kiss on Johnnyfrom which he pulled away. Finally, they dispensed with their long list of his and hers misunderstandings. But since he still didnt want to mess up their friendship, they went to bed separately. At least briefly. Before long, she was getting up to go to his room, only to find him at her door. To hell with their friendship, he joked. Ive got other friends. Plus, Im in love with you. So they consummated their eons-long flirtation. In other developments, when Tully visited Wilsons office to sign her KLET contract, the creep made pass after pass at her until she finally had to knee him in the groin. Good luck, he spat as she left. Your only talent was getting shot. Ah, if only that had been the last she or we saw of him

    2003 | In our final era, as Marah and Emma worked on a school project upstairs with goth pal Josh, Kate and Travis canoodled downstairs. That is, they did until she removed her tongue from his mouth long enough to moan, Oh, Johnny. Oops. When she subsequently reported her disastrous gaffe to Tully, her pal advised her to invite Travis over again, then greet him at the door naked. As for Tullys predicament, Kate suggested that she simply apologize to Max. And it appeared that she was going to do just that when she arrived home to find her husband there. But she choked the words back down when he shared that hed learned that they could get an annulment that very week. Heartbroken, she went over to Kates and crawled into bed with her bestie. Wait a day, Kate said, then ask Max to meet at the gazebo in the park where the wedding had taken place. Wasnt that from a movie? Its from every movie, Kate admitted, because its just. That. Romantic.

    The following day, Kate left a series of rambling messages for Travis, one of which included a colorful description of their make-out sessionsand was heard by Marah, Emma and Josh, who remarked to his mortified friend, Dude, your mom is buck wild. At The Girlfriend Hour, Wilson apologized to Tully for his past behavior. But the misogynist pig hadnt really changed at all. Soon, hed foisted on her Brooks, an obnoxious male guest to interview in hopes of attracting a bigger audience of guys. Men, he insisted, mean bigger ad dollars. Uh, since when? Afterwards, she was so furious that she punched her dressing-room mirror which gave her the perfect excuse to call EMT Max. All I do, he noted, is chase you. So he wasnt sure that he wanted to take the second chance that she was offering. Well, shed be at the gazebo the following day if he decided that he did want an I do-over.

    That evening, Kate, apparently unfamiliar with the concept of a peephole, answered her door naked. Care to come in for some hot nog? she asked Travis who it turned out had brought his mother along. Once Mom excused herself, Travis assured Kate that she didnt have to try so hard. They could take their time and figure out what they were to one another. Later, though, it wasnt Travis who was on her mind but Johnny. Just as in the 80s, she ran to the door to go to him, only to find him already on the other side. Also just as in the 80s, they had sex. The following morning, after she dropped him at the airport, she admitted to Tully, I think Im still in love with him. Tullys and the only possible response: Duh. At The Girlfriend Hour, Wilson reported that the network had loved Tullys interplay with Brooks, so he was being made her new co-host. Of my show? exclaimed Tully. Actually, its my show, Wilson reminded her. He could have it, then; she quit.

    When Tully arrived at the gazebo for her date with destiny, Max was a no-show. But of course Kate was there, you know, just in case. Back at Kates mansion, the pals were comforting one another when Sean showed up to join them in the worlds largest chair. Hed just come out to Julia, he said. And shed immediately shown him the door. As the episode and the season drew to a conclusion, we got a glimpse of Johnnys experience in Iraq and saw him step perilously close to a landmine. Was he dead? Alive? Couldnt say. On New Years Eve, Kate and Tully toasted to 2004, the year in which the latter was going to make her comeback, she said, with the help of her new producer: Kate, natch. But something must have gone very wrong with that plan, because when we returned to the funeral weve been circling for episodes it turned out to be Buds, by the way the besties seemed to have put the E-N-D in friends. No one wants you here, Kate told Tully, who felt as if shed been punished enough for some undisclosed transgression. When I said I could never forgive you for what you did, what did you think that meant?

    Obviously, the show cant end-end here, right? There will have to be a Season 2. If there is, will you watch? On your way to the comments, stop off at the poll below to grade the finale and Season 1 as a whole.

    Programs with the Sherborn Council on Aging: Updated vaccine information – Wicked Local - February 9, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Common Content| Wicked Local

    Vaccine Information (update)

    The governor has opened a phone line to help those that are 75 and older with scheduling appointments that do not have access to the vaccine.

    It is open Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. and is only for those 75 and older. You can dial 211 and then choose the for help with scheduling an appointment option.

    More and more appointments/locations are opening up.

    Anyone having an issue can also call the COA office at 508-651-7858 and we will assist you as best we can.

    Here is some information that can help you schedule an appointment.

    https://www.mass.gov/info-details/covid-19-vaccination-locations(search by zip code or map location).

    What to know before you go

    The vaccine is free. You will never be asked for a credit card number to make an appointment.

    You must make an appointment to get a vaccine.

    The vaccine requires two doses. You should make sure you have a second appointment scheduled from the same site, or know how to schedule it, before leaving your first appointment.

    You must confirm you are eligible for your phase. See below for more information.

    You can get a vaccine even if you do not have insurance, a drivers license, or a Social Security number.

    Confirm your eligibility

    To get vaccinated in Phase 1 or 2, you will need to confirm that you are part of a currently eligible group within those phases. This is called attesting.

    Depending on where you book your appointment, you may attest differently.

    You may be asked to attest online or over the phone when booking.

    If you are not asked when booking, you will be asked to attest when you arrive at your appointment. Vaccination locations will likely have an attestation form available, however, you can fill out the COVID-19 Massachusetts Vaccination Attestation Form and bring it with you to your appointment to be prepared. You can also fill the form out at the location.

    Additional documents

    Your vaccination location may list the below items as necessary; however, that only applies to people who have them. You can still receive the COVID-19 vaccine without insurance or an ID.

    Bring an ID with your name, if you have one, to verify your name in the vaccination system.

    Bring your health insurance card, if you have one. Your insurance will be billed at no cost to you. You do not need to be insured to receive the vaccine.

    Sites labeled Local vaccination locations on the map (yellow stars) may require additional documents since they are only open to those who live in that city or town. This will be listed when making your appointment under special instructions.

    When you get your first dose

    Wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth.

    You will get a vaccination card that tells you which COVID-19 vaccine you received, and when and where you received it. The card will remind you to return for a second dose.

    The vaccination site will tell you when to come back for your second appointment.

    Make sure you get both doses

    You need two doses of the same vaccine to be fully protected.

    It's important that you get the same type of vaccine both times.

    Go back to the same vaccination site to get the second dose.

    Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Paris is undergoing a large-scale refurbishment while the park remains closed until April. Both it and the Main Street U.S.A. gazebo are currently surrounded with scaffolding and construction equipment as they are prepared for the parks 30th anniversary next year.

    Meanwhile, the Main Street U.S.A. gazebo is completely covered with a construction tent. Elements of the gazebo have been stripped down to only the steel supports and a significant portion of the roof has been removed.
