Greetings foolish mortals!!! I cannot believe it's been over a month since I've updated this. It's been super crazy busy times this past month as things have been escalating, increasing and more things have been placed on my plate. It's all good though, from Diego to the Park. Busy is good.
So, in between my posts, a couple of things have happened to brief upon. Back to October 20th, went to Knott's Scary Farm and had a great night. Got a chance to ride Ghostrider after it had been down all of last year for remodeling work and now it's fast, smoothish for a woodie. Hit all the haunted houses and just had an awesome night. Was dead tired as I hadn't slept the night before so was done around 11:30. Great night.
Nov 1st also marked the time Knott's opened up their gates free to veterans. Went back and hit Ghostrider, Xcelerator, Silver Bullet for starters. No crowds and always a great evening. They keep it going until the end of December.
I did post some new pics on the site too. Still have a lot more to go through. Been a year plus. I need to get those up.
Otherwise, things here have been busy and good. So until the next time...

Greetings foolish mortals. Wow! What can I say? It's been a few weeks since my last update and no I haven't been slacking, been busy as all at work. Lots of things going on there. In a matter of a week, had my team cut by 50% and my workload increased. Long days have been commonplace and all craziness has been multiplied. Needless to say, I can handle it. No worries!!!
October has been flying by and we're almost half over. Ugh!!! Slow down. I love this time of year and haven't been ...

Greetings foolish mortals!!! Welcome to the first Fall blog. I know. What happened? Been busy with lots of things going on all over this thing called life. Fast and Furious as well as insane in the membrane.
Well, I say this as the first Fall blog but these past couple of days have seen the temp rise up into triple digits. Was actually 106 here today. WTH??? We do not like that. No sir indeed. We like waking up and feeling the crisp air and also the evening cooler temps. More to do ...

Greetings foolish mortals. Hope all is well in the world with everyone today.
Had to write about my experience yesterday. Spent the day at Universal Hollywood and had a great time. While the park isn't that big and doesn't have a whole lot of attractions, it was still pretty cool and the day was perfect. Not crowded at all and the weather was just as perfect. Maybe 70 degrees.
First place hit was Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. This one is in 3-D, unlike Orlando, and I while I rea...

A momentous day in the history of BBP. It was 30 years ago this day
that I left to begin my Naval career. September 8th has stood out a few
times in my life but that first time changed a boy into a man. Happy
September 8th!!!

Greetings foolish mortals. I can't believe we're here now in September. Summer is almost behind us and my favorite time of the year is almost here too. I do wish I was going to be able to go to Epcot for the Food and Wine festival but right now, it looks doubtful. But...who knows???
Been a busy time for the BBP and this week has been no exception. Lots to do, lots to plan and much more to get into motion. I still also need to get my photos from Europe, which I left almost a year ago, ont...

Greetings foolish mortals. Well, looks like I had a slight hiccup on my interface here due to forgetting to update my CC info from an expired card. All is well though as I've updated the info and am now moving forward.
What a weekend it was. Having some kind of emergency replacements taking place at work and having to shut everything down and then hope they came back up when it was time. Of course, as things go and with my last name, it didn't work out at all so I was stuck here for a few ...

Greetings foolish mortals and welcome to the first day of August. I swear this year is really flying by and there doesn't seem to be slowing it down either. At least we're getting to my favorite time of year when things will start cooling down and that feel will be in the air of Fall. Then it's time to visit the haunts and that I can't wait for.
Been pretty hot out here too but some nice times ahead as this past weekend had the Midsummers Haunt experience at the Long Beach Convention Cent...

Greetings foolish mortals and thank Bill it's Friday. The end of the week is here and it's time to enjoy the weekend and do what we do best. There's a midsummer Halloween event going on here so I may go visit that. Whatever I do, it's good to be living life. Never take anything or anyone for granted.
Until next time...
