Thank you for asking.I tried so hard to go to sleep after I logged off here ,but I stayed up until almost 4:30 this morning. I have NO clue as to why I couldn't sleep. I was back up again at 7:00 this morning and I feel just fine. How are you this fine day?

Next time you can't sleep, you might want to try a glass of milk, taking a relaxing bath while listening to calming music, or watching a movie that'll put you to sleep...like Armageddon or Pocahontas.

Originally Posted By knightnfrees Well, I've got some packing to do for the move and take it over to my storage unit. I think laundry is on the list for today. I may take a long walk.

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight I walked a mile this morning and I'm goingto TRY to fit in some crunches( not many though) I can't stand to exercize. I do however LOVE to walk. I have laundry as well and some little things to do around the house thats just daily tyding up stuff. Then I'm going to bake some goodies. I'm in Anaheim and it's a beautiful day here as well. It's supposed to warm up a little bit the next couple days.
Originally Posted By knightnfrees Yeah, I need to get more exercise in myself. Not enough time in the day. A DL local, eh? Us too. Yeah, sometimes the damsel and I will multi-task and go to DL to have fun and do some serious walking. We'll even walk to and from M&F instead of taking the PL Tram.
Originally Posted By knightnfrees Definitely gonna miss being close to DL, that's for sure. (sigh) Oh well, life moves on and so do we.
Originally Posted By Lady Starlight Ohh I do that myself. I really enjoy that walk. I like to walk down that pathway and watch the trams go past and I like to walk through DTD as well. Walking makes you feel so good. I actually try each time I go to DL to walk the entire park at a fast pace inone fell swoop. Then I go about my merry way. I'm exactly 5 miles from the park and a mile from Knott's. Man is that place in sad shape. It's such a shame.
Originally Posted By Lady Starlight But, you can ALWAYS come back for visits.. Thats the wonderful thing about that. I just wish I would have spoke up sooner and perhaps you and your damsel and I could have met up at DL. But who knew?
Originally Posted By knightnfrees We're about 10-15 miles, ourselves. Yeah, KBF. What a sad state. The last time we went which was about 3 years ago, the park had a different vibe. I was telling my damsel about the Haunted Shack. I thought that was the coolest thing there. Old school, low tech and classy. We were trying to find it, but couldn't. She was funnin' me and saying it was all in my imagination. I said, it was here! I asked a few employees...they were to green to know what I was talking about. I managed to find someone who knew...and she said that they tore it down a year or two prior to our visit. She said alot of people ask about it. It's a shame. KBF has just turned into a thrill-ride, young demographic park.

I've only done one meet. It would have been nice to go to others. Perhaps a minimeet after the official one. That might be a possibility.
Originally Posted By Lady Starlight Yes, it's in such horrible shape and definately has a "bad Vibe" to it at least for me.We go once a year to the Haunt and that's only because we get free tickets to go. Id never pay to go there anymore. It's in shambles. I grew up right across the street from it, in fact, We never never knew what we'd wake up to in the mornings when I was a kid. Sometimes a donky was on our street, tons of chickens and ducks would come in our neighborhood. I remember Mrs Knott herself would hand out little wax coated dixi cups with boysenberry juice in them to people.My Mom would push me in my stroller around the stores and thenwe'd go see the seals and the sway back horse.. omg whata flashback for me..lol

I can only imagine ducks and chickens strolling down Beach Blvd. That would certainly be fowl!
