I am seeing out 2025 in the Upsidedown! With Cam for the final episode of Stranger Things at the Spectrum Center Regal.

Merry Christmas to all from the Happiest Place on Earth!

I don’t have anything festive for the holiday, so here’s another birch painting I did in 2024.

You will be seeing a lot of vintage photos of Dick van Dyke today, as he celebrates his 100th birthday. Here he is, mugging for the camera with one of his co-stars from Lt. Robin Crusoe, U.S.N. (1966).

Happy birthday!

Happy Thanksgiving!

(I had one last carved pumpkin in me for this year!)

Today marks the 97th anniversary of Mickey Mouse’s public debut and, according to convention, his birthday. Happy Birthday, Mickey Mouse!

I have heard that the most thankless task at Disneyland is being the guy who has to check the base of the Town Square Christmas tree for loose bulbs.

81 degrees at the Merriest Place on Earth and I am. Just. Not. Feeling it, yet.

In case you had not heard, you can catch me on Oct. 19, 21, 23, 26, 28, or 31 as I officially carve pumpkins at the Disneyland Resort. I will be at the Disneyland Hotel from noon to 3 and the Grand Californian from 5-8. Stop by and say hello!

Where else would I be on my birthday?

By this point I just think of Herb Ryman’s tree the way I think of Shamu. It’s more of a concept than an actual whale.

Note to self: If it’s too big for carry-on, perhaps it’s not a good souvenir to purchase…

Now this, this, is an historical marker. On a legitimately historical property.

O. M. W. They actually did it.

I’ll start: “Although small” (and a dedicated space within a structure), it has the ability to sit.

Discuss.

And, why… exactly?

I was honored to do my part to support the annual San Diego Comic Con Robert Heinlein Blood Drive by donating two units today. And how appropriate to do so while cosplaying Dr. John Hammond from Jurassic Park.

Enough!

This is like watching a toddler with cake smeared on his face and hands loudly proclaiming that a bad man came into the house and stole the cake.

A pedantic reminder that #Disneyland first opened its doors to guests on July 18, 1955. Today marks the 70th anniversary of the day invited guests celebrated the dedication of the park for a live, televised event.

Sabrina Carpenter’s name has been crossing my Disney social media feed today, for some reason. It reminded me of a visit I made on April 23, 2014, to the Disney Music Group. She was giving a “lunch time concert” to introduce her EP. Was this the next Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, or Bridgit Mendler?

I don’t really know why, but Tuesday night I just felt like enjoying a TACO.

Hmmm, a major milestone passed a few days ago with no fanfare whatsoever. May 22 marked the 27th anniversary of New Tomorrowland…

In tribute, here are my very own rare photos of Paul Pressler signing autographs! And with it— an actual autograph, signed! (Matched with the previous day’s gate flyer.)

What better way to kick off the summer than with a Memorial Day 50th anniversary screening of Jaws? But first, a trip to Dana Point Harbor to make sure there were no sharks cruising the baby beach…

Remembering three Michigan farm boys this Memorial Day: my uncle Ron (Army Air Force, 1940), uncle Ralph (Army Paratroops, 1943), and my dad (Coast Guard, 1944). They all returned home from WWII. On this Memorial Day we remember them and honor all who have served in our nation’s Armed Forces.
