I'm at a similar point - 750 away from the first Midnight this morning, so I should get it by Thur night. I spent about 140 gems over the doubles weekend and a handful before that (mostly when I needed to speed up a quest to make sure I got my full quest points for the day). I think I'm on track to just get the weather station if I spend gems every day of the last doubles weekend.

Escalade, I think the big factor might be friends. Because I got the treatery and bush from the earlier event, I can get 50 points instead of 30 from friends every day. That adds up. (My son's park, which does not have the treatery or bush, is about 500 points behind mine.) I agree this is not fair. BFS made the rewards a lot harder to get in this event compared to recent ones, and unless you have some edge like extra friends or a ton of gems, it may not be possible. I really wish they would make these final rewards more accessible to the average player who may not have money to spend or gems stockpiled, or hasn't been playing long enough to have all the advantages.
