My all-time favorite moment of the day was...lost in the most ridiculous Christmas land "shoppe" (otherwise known as Kraynaks) with H. She was starting to "melt"...if you know what I mean...when all of a sudden we entered...North Pole LAND?!...she was mesmerized. Animated EVERYthing Christmasy. (from Clifford and the Grinch...Abby and Zoe...Elmo was frosting sugar cookies...to Frosty...baby Jesus and the whole nativity thing)... And it went on forever. Then we entered an area in which you could purchase everyTHING holidayish that you had just seen. It was neverending and OVERwhelming...TOO MUCH stuff...we did get "lost"...but we were happy. There was more to this place. I mean like all stuff gardening...oh and every old time and new time toy a child could every want, wish for, or not even know they want.

we ate at...

what was that place called? with all the old cars hanging upside down over our heads? Quaker Steak and Lube. By this time my battery was long gone. No pictures. Lots of spicy chicken wings.
