I Love A Parade!

A few blog posts ago I said that the one and only time anyone would stop traffic for me was for graduation... I was wrong. Over the 24th of July weekend Curt, Meg, Paul, & I entered the Bear River Annual 24th Parade as a Cruiser Bike Club (Now an award winning cruiser bike club, though it has yet to be officially confirmed). We lined up bright and early in the church parking lot and proudly paraded past screaming fans lining the two blocks to the park. The actual line of emergency vehicles from Honeyville alone was longer than the entire parade route, but we didn't care. Our fans loved us.

Redfish 2010

Once again Curt, Meg, Paul, & I set off to Redfish lake as a final hurrah before Paul and I moved to law school. We spent most of the time riding our cruisers around the lake, stopping at the general store for ice cream, and having fun around the camp fire. We spent a few days at the lake, but the water was FREEZING. I only dared to jump in to wash off.

The trees in the woods surrounding the lake were so beautiful.

Megan and I had glitter toes that matched our cruiser bikes. Thanks Kylie!

Cruiser Club Is Here

This Sunday marked the first time that the Cruiser Club met with its two newest members. Curt and his bike Woody were there, as well as Paul and his bike Major. Also pictured are Megan and her bike Bluesy, and Alison with her bike Honey. It was a fantastic ride around downtown.

Three for a Dollar

Last weekend Paul and I were on a cruiser bike ride and a girl on our street was selling daffodils three for a dollar. Well, of course we had to buy some (and it wasn't the only road side purchase we made that weekend either I might add)! I'm no photographer, but I must say I think they add some color to our totally white entry. Welcome Spring!

Baby Animal Day Reprise

Back by popular demand Susan and I attended another wildly successful Baby Animal Day a few weeks ago. There was lots of fur, lots of poop, lots of fun, and lots of hand sanitizer... what more could you want, really?

DISNEYLAND!...as promised.

This February Megan, Curt, Paul, and I took a much needed excursion to the happiest place on earth (BIG BIG BIG THANKS to Curt and Meg) and the many posts to follow will try to do justice to the magic filled days and nights spent at Disneyland. Here's to good food, fun rides, sore feet, and lots and lots of laughs...





Food, food, and more food! I love Disneyland food without prejudice, with the exception of cotton candy. I hear it's magical, but I still can't bring myself to eat it. Examples of crave-worthy Disneyland food are:
Pooh Treats, Dole Whips, Blue Bayou Rolls, Frozen Apples, Churros, Plaza Inn Fried Chicken, Golden Horse Shoe Corn Dogs, Hungry Bear Hamburgers, and Bengal Barbecue Skewers, (not to mention THE best hot chocolate ever to be found just outside the park in Downtown Disney at the Catal Restaurant and Grape Jelly Bar).







This is the first year we rode King Arthur's Carousel in Fantasy Land and I LOVE LOVE LOVED it! Megan, who does not have a fondness for being astride spinning things, sat this ride out and filmed our race.






That's all I have time for now, but there will be more to come including, but not limited to, our VIP ride on the Lilly Belle train car, our exploits in Tarzan's Treehouse, and before-and-after images of the carnage of Splash Mountain. Stay Tuned.

That Shoe Thing

Sometimes I have to re-tie one of my sneakers during the day and it always ends up feeling tighter than the other, which is bothersome for a bit. Stay tuned for pictures from our recent trip to DISNEYLAND... which will not be laced with shoe commentary, I promise.
