Thanks Chris! I sure hope your right. Since I went to satelite I could no longer play Haunted Mansion on VMK. My old server loaded quickly and I had no problems. Now that I live in the middle of no where, satelite is my only choice. I went back into SmallWorlds and Patti's room was still available, but no Patti and so was Genie's. So that must be a game glitch right now, as I was able to access another room and talk with players. I am still having no luck with getting into the antique store. I will keep trying as I am assuming until I finish that quest/mission I can not do any others. Thanks again for answering my questions.
