last weekend I stayed at the Mountain View Grand Resort in New Hampshire for a friend's wedding, and there's something special about these old hotels that sprung up in the 1800s for rich train traveling families seeking a nature retreat.
they're often far beyond their glory days, but they still feel so much more grand than the "nice" new hotels that have sprung up since.
here's a picture of it from 1915

i have such fond memories here it’s so lovely, you don’t have to pay to enter just to ride the rides
very nostalgic old timey quaint energy that is also a bit liminal,, at least to me
design features include covered bridges, a water mill ice cream shoppe, and a north pole xmas themed store that has a year-round pole of ice outside
one of my fav rides is the haunted mansion. thinking abt it rn i can literally smell it, it’s musty perfection
i love the carousel bc it is soooo beautiful w classic music from an organ! and it has a ring toss, if you pull the brass ring you get another ride for free
oh yes and i forgot it also has a campground which im obsessed with

tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public
this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago
no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI
a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account
so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
