It’s technically still “winter” for us around here, as we’ve got lots of construction and remodeling projects underway to get ready for summer – and your next visit to our little corner of paradise here at Traffic Light 2A on the Parkway! Here are some images that caught my camera last week.
Raising the roof – every building is being reroofed!
Remember those walls we put up a few weeks ago? All is now revealed! We’ve opened up the spaces between the front entrance, the old toy store, and right into the Personalizing gallery.
When the walls come tumbling down ..
New spaces are revealed!
We’re excited to find out what our design team has in mind for the newly-painted area that previously housed our toy store.
Cool waters for a hot spring day.
Our Parkway Oasis!
No fishing, please.
The Big Kahuna in the Little Pond.
Have you toasted marshmallows with us around our fire pit?
Beautiful blooms at The Partridge & Pear Restaurant.
A beautiful thing I found – an egg, hand-painted with a Nativity scene. I think it is an ostrich egg, as it is quite large; we are keeping it under a glass dome.
Brilliant Vera Bradley summer-pattern bags – just luscious! Making me want to plan a vacation somewhere sunny just so I’ll need one of these colorful bags for the trip….
MAD LOVE for these Home Grown veggie critters!
Okay, time to get back to work. But I will leave you with one more image – a photo of a new threat now looming over the city…
Giant Ape Attacks Pigeon Forge!
Thanks for joining me for a stroll around our place. What’s happening in your neighborhood?

I love coming to your store.. we always stay in wears valley and I visit your store every time. We take our babies and they are amazed at all the trees and lights! See you guys soon!
Awe, thanks so much! We love being on the list when you come! The store is not ready for prime time yet this year, and we can’t wait to watch the designers put everything back together after all the upgrades. See you later this year!

Please tell me you’ll be open in June. A trip to PF isn’t complete without a stop in here. A place my entire family loves!
Oh, yes, absolutely – every day in June! We are open now – just a lot of yellow caution tape to be navigated! (We’ll even give you a coupon for a Candy Kitchen treat for putting up with our mess if you visit us now!) Starting Memorial weekend, Santa will be here 5 days a week (he’s here on Saturday & Sunday right now) and we’ll be open until 9 or 10 pm every night.
See you SOON!
