My family and I visited Disneyland this past week and it was marvelous!



My family goes to Disneyland as often as possible, but I never lose my enthusiasm. I have been to Disneyland at least once a year, every year, for almost my whole life. This might sound cliché, but it is my happy place. I have many fond memories of being there (more recently Cameron proposed to me there in the middle of a snow swirled main street at Christmastime) and although the times have changed and the prices have become outrageous, I still enjoy being there with the people I care about.



My favorite time of the year to visit is the fall/winter. The park goes all out for the Halloween, and then Christmas decorations. Christmas is my favorite holiday and it is one of the best experiences for those that love Christmas and Disneyland together.

I was able to get a few shots of some of the attractions, you can see more on my Flickr!

Friday feature - Cheap Thrills

August 31, 2012


Since we were discussing video game budgeting yesterday...

Cheap Thrills is one of my favorite stores in the area I live. This store is a great place to visit if you're looking to buy new or vintage music, movies, games (video and tabletop), comics and more. My main interest is the video games (of course). Cheap Thrills will not discriminate against trade in items that are "older" than what mainstream stores will accept (NES, SNES, SEGA, etc). You are welcome to choose in store credit or cash for your trade-ins (although the in store credit is usually higher).

They do not have a huge online presence, visiting them in person is definitely the way to go!

Check out their Facebook.


What about you? What are your favorite privately owned geek paradises?
