California Screamin' and New Giveaway

Hi y'all!
Well, we survived...er...I mean "returned safely" from our trip to Disneyland with the grandkids. It was an Adventure...

It turns out we have a daredevil granddaughter who took a liking to the California Screamin' rollercoaster. (I kid you not...that's the name of the thing!) She rode it not once, not twice but SIX times in two days!

Of course, yours truly offered to capture the moment for posterity (i.e. take a photo from a safe distance away) while this incredibly terrifying ride takes off at what looks like the speed of light!

An unsuspecting auntie Katie offered to ride along on the first ride of the day and said afterwards: "Great NAME for that ride...I screamed at the top of my lungs the whole time!"Not even hugging your teddy bear would help you on California Screamin'!!



By the way, my favorite ride was Soarin' over California, so I must say I'm not a complete scaredy-cat. So there!


Here's a few giveaways for this month: (Be sure to leave a comment here or join our mailing list to be entered.)

And finally, as John Stewart would say, here's your "moment of zen":



(taken from the bluffs overlooking the beach near San Diego. We found a cool campground with this view...unbelieveble...25 bucks a night!) Enjoy!
