Library Park in Monrovia, CA

I apologize for the lack of posts. I think my life is finally getting back to normal now. I still have a few boxes to unpack but I have to make room for those items so until that happens I will have a stack of boxes in the corner. Of course, you can do your part and help me by checking out my ebay auctions, LOL.

OK, so I took a break from packing (before the move) and joined up with some cousins at Library Park in Monrovia for a free concert in the park. I went two Sundays in a row and really enjoyed being outside under the trees, listening to music.

Upon arrival, I spotted this very cool statue of Mark Twin at one end of the Park.



We began walking towards the other end of the park to find the bandstand...


I fell in love with this giant tree and took at least 5 photos of it.


What do we have here? A pig! On a leash! Turns out her name is Sweet Pea and she comes to the park on a regular basis.


We found the bandstand....now to find our cousins!



We had a good time so as I said earlier, we returned the following Sunday for a Mariachi concert. Below is a snippet of a song you'll all recognize but I'm sure you never heard it quite this way...



Just in case you want a link to Library Park - check it out here.

Disneyland Trash Cans

Yes Folks, trash cans! Do you know where these two beauties are? You'll find them as soon as you come through the gates at Disneyland. This should be easy to figure out - Adventureland! How about these? Hmmm??? New Orleans Square! Here's a trick question: Which two lands share the same style of trash can??? You can find these two in Frontierland. Now we're in Fantasyland. Still in Fantasyland but wait!!! The area around It's A Small World has it's very own trash can theme! Tomorrowland!!! OK all you hot shots... WHERE is this MYSTERY trash can???? Do these look familiar? They should. Critter Country has the same theme as Frontierland. I know what you're thinking...you're thinking that I've already posted these and I'm trying to trick you. HA! I have not already posted these! If you look closely, these differ slightly from the trash cans in New Orleans Square. THESE are in the area next to the Haunted ...

Getting back into the swing of things...

It's been a rough couple of days... I came back to work only to be told that I will no longer have a job as of February 1st! Ya, it was a big shocker to me, too. That being said, everything else is back to "normal" and I will begin posting on a regular basis again. Below is a little video I put together taken on my last night in Florida. There is a wonderful little town called Ocala, which I dearly love. I am providing links to two sites, one here and one here , so you can have a little information about the place. OOPS! I just realized that I had posted some of the previous video earlier in the week. Oh well.. at least this one contains new footage, LOL. Peter said I tired him how SO MUCH that I can't go back to Florida for at least two years. hee hee hee

Upside down Christmas Trees?

Image
We interrupt our Disneyland visit to bring you a few pics from Tom's Farms . Ever heard of it? Unless you live in Southern California, probably not. It's a neato keen place and I really dig it. I had not been there in 10 years so it was high time I paid them a visit. They have tons of outdoor seating and it's a great place to people watch. I had a great bacon cheeseburger and then walked off my lunch by window shopping. A life sized Santa! (And he looks a bit creepy the way he's standing there. "Hey baby.." Ever seen an upside down Christmas tree? Me either! I decided to take pictures of all the trees... Look! Another upside down Christmas tree. Here's a twist - HALF of an upside down Christmas tree hung on the wall! I kinda like it. These are ginormous ornaments hanging from the ceiling. I'm already planning a return trip to Tom's Farms. I've always wanted a sleigh bed. Ain't he cute??? There is a big can...
