I read this article at work and was stoked to see your quotes in there Robb. I'm also glad they spelled your name right and didn't put Rob. Great quotes too. When I read them I was like "Yep, that's exactly what Robb would say on that ride." Jimmy "Robb is awesome and MSN proves this" Bo

I'm excited! Maybe I should start saving money and head out to England whenever this thing opens. Oh wait, nevermind...it's in Italy. Sorry Italians but I will eventually get to Italy when I'm 50. Serious note, they are testing the trains in my back yard! Jimmy "Arizona is hot!" Bo

Their new restraint looks like some sort of bondage experiment.

I think they should have a huge bonfire and burn down Mean Streak. Get your marshmallows people...it will be epic! They can do so much with that area back there. Maybe they should take a chapter out of Dollywood's book and build something like Adventure Mountain! Jimmy "I like S'mores" Bo

Great photos so far Eric! I can't wait to see more. You are extremely lucky to be able to attend that trip. Keep the report coming and I can't wait to see your pictures. Jimmy "Eric always has great Trip Reports" Bo

I like wood! It's hard!

I still think Theme Park Underground was the best theme park/roller coaster junkie show ever...even though it never really took off! Jimmy "Bring back Theme Park Underground!" Bo

Was the same guy operating Mega Blitz with his giant cancer mole on his lip that everyone thought was a cigar. Jimmy "Still has back pains from Mega Blitz" Bo

^Jeremy, Let me know when you guys head down there and I'll gladly show you around. Plus, maybe with a couple guys going down there we might have a better chance at one of us getting "Soiled Dove" action. Jimmy "I'd love to have some ghost sex" Bo

^Almost every "Ghost Hunting" show has gone to the Birdcage Theater but I still recommend the Ghost Adventures Episode over all the other shows.

Here's what some of you wanted to see. Birdcage Theater Ghosts! If you remember the picture I took looking up the stairs in the previous update...this is the exact same spot but something looks different. The people at the Birdcage Theater say it's a lady with a hat on holding her dress up as she's walking down the stairs. This ghost scares the crap out of everyone right as you walk into the Theater. This creepy ghost will serve you drinks at the bar downstairs if you are nice to him In all seriousness, the Birdcage Theater is haunted whether you believe that sort of stuff or you don't. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a picture of a ghost (and I really wanted to) but this place is definitely worth the visit no matter what. So get out here and check out Tombstone, AZ and the Birdcage Theater.

Tombstone, Arizona has turned into a tourist trap but it's still a great day trip for anyone in the area. Cassie and I took this trip with Cassie's Grandma and her history comes from Tombstone and the Mining area around it. I won't bore you all with her family history but I will entertain you all with some pictures taken from a day at Tombstone. Enjoy and if you're ever in the area and want to go to Tombstone with yours truly then shoot me a message! Here we are, the good old Wild West A look down at the scenic dirt road that still has original buildings from the good old days If you want dinner (or lunch) and a show then check this place out The old Bed and Breakfast building which now has some amazing Ice Cream downstairs Transportation to get around the old Wild West Golden Eagle Brewery...which sadly is no a brewery and I was not able to get drunk there. A look down the other way of good old Tombstone Time for lunch...an original bar back from the day that cowboys roamed the streets and prostitution was legal Inside the Saloon. It was awesome! You can't go wrong with a Sassy Sasparilla (unless it's poisoned) Tombstone became a city because of the mining and they actually let people down in the mines. No thanks, since all the mines have been collapsing as of late The mining area of Tombstone where they mined for the seven dwarves of Snow White This is a Tombstone Rose...take a good look at it because this beast is what's making everyone's allergies act up this year They have a shoot-out "stunt" show with food and stuff. It's pretty lame and that's why I put quotes around "stunt". The only "stunt" thing about it is that a guy tripped and got shot...BAM! Tombstone Courthouse for all those legal nerds out there. Interesting fact...this is now a Historic Landmark but before it was, Cassie's great grandparents got married in it...WOW! Inside the Courthouse they turned it into a musuem for old stuff...this is an old roulette wheel Yes! We got invited to see a hanging! I can't wait! Pretty eerie looking and what a way to die Cassie ringing the old Firehouse bell Funny thing is...all those books look like the same books in my dad's office. I guess lawyers don't update their books very often The Old Courthouse...pretty neat looking this is the infamous Birdcage Theater. If you haven't heard of this then here's a brief history: Men went there to get laid...legally. It's considered one of the most haunted sites in the US and several gunfights took place in the theater and some of the bullets are still in the walls. Inside the front entrance where you get a brief history about the palce and learned that the "Birdcage Doves" were prostitutes that slept with several men a night Up the stairs is where all of the "Birdcage Cribs" are where the ladies would do whatever the man wants them to do The painting has hung on that wall since it was brought to the Theater and there are several bullet holes through the painting. That's where a drunk cowboy shot at the host (and missed) and left this bullet hole...the bullet is still in the wood In other words...the doves go the men drunk and took their money This is inside the theater looking up at the "Cribs" More "Cribs" with creepy people staring at you Each lady had their own "Crib" and decorated it any way that they wanted to That is the original Curtain from when this theater was a hot spot for plays, shows, card games, and legal prostitution An old card game that I can't figure out today This is a painting of the longest continuous card game ever...It was something like 3 years 8 months or 8 years 3 months...I can't remember but it was freaking long! There are still bullets where these bullet holes are These are the "Soiled Doves" of the Birdcage Theater. They have their pictures all up on the wall so that everyone can see how beautiful they were A history about the Old Hearse that took everyone to Boothill Cemetery The Old Hearse. I admit, looking at this thing and standing there for a little bit didn't feel so good...it felt as if 100 people were staring at me If you've ever seen the movie "Tombstone" and remember a certain someone dying in the main gunfight...this is the exact coffin he was lying in during the movie More "Doves" that look you straight in the eye Another "Dove" with an awesome hat This was a child's potty training seat back in the day...which was a Wednesday Time to go downstairs where the really creepy come out and play Look at this picture carefully because after this update I will post one from the same exact spot but it has a ghost coming down the stairs This was the table where the longest card game ever was played...pretty small table for such a long game Brothers Wyatt and Johnny and their whore Josie. I mean their "Dove" Josie...sorry Josie More of downstairs with a bar and more tables Need something at the bar? Ask the creepy people to get it for you This is the Wine Cellar where they kept all the booze. Again, taking this picture felt eerie because it felt as if someone was looking right back at me This is one of the "Soiled Doves" room's where some lucky men got to spend extra time with their lady And here's another portion of the room. Downstairs there were only 2 rooms but there were 8 "Cribs" up in the Theater Area And here's the other room. That's the Birdcage Theater and Tombstone. Up next are Birdcage Theater Ghosts! Read on!

We did not use the Fastpass on the Cobra coaster but they actually had quite a few of those Fastpass lines throughout the fair. Guy, the rib cracking was not as bad as riding the Scrambler with you because you nearly did crack my rib (where's that video!) while the Hi-Miler you can at least brace yourself. Jimmy "Cancer survivor" Bo

The only thing really needs to be said here is... the Pima County Fair has the most credits in one place in the entire state of Arizona...that's how freaing lame this state is. There were 5 credits (1 of them powered) at the Fair this year and no park in Arizona has more than 3 credits. If you decide to read this then you are awesome and should pat your back. There were SHARK exhibits at the Fair this year. That's right...SHARKS! Anyway, off to the pictures and the wonderful sarcastic captions by yours truely. Have fun trying to pick out the serious captions... Boo-Ya! It's the Fair! It's full of awesome carnies, fatty foods, deadly rides, and homo animals This pig was the featured swine at the Fair this year. He won first prize for fattiness Here are the champs and they sing the Queen song "Ride my bicycle" instead of "We are the champions". They were a little lost Here's the emperor from Emperor's New Groove. He looks pretty bored This is a duck and they are the delicious dark meat This is a turkey and he will be my thanksgiving dinner this year. I only bought him for $10 so I hope he survives until November Beef! It's what's for dinner! This cow was sold to Arby's...NO JOKE! Oh wow! Kids look away...it's Pig Porn! Look at those nipples! Off to see Mega Shark vs Giant Crocodile Hunter Killing Sting Ray They have a Great White! AWESOME! Where's Dave and Ice Bat to check this out Sharks just swimming and about to bust out of the tank and eat everyone watching the show All the other sharks are coming up with a plan to take over the world and destroy all humans After watching the sharks bite off the trainer's hand, it was time for us to eat No Fair is complete without an Ostrich Leg...I mean Turkey Leg Ready to tackle the beast! Cassie decided to get real food and they were so impressed with her decision that they gave her a toy Forget the toy! It's time to eat! I'm doing my best impression at the shark eating the trainer's hand off Now it's time to check out the rides and carnies in all their glory I spot some awesome rides out there! Credit! It's the Rocket Rockin Roller Rollin Coaster You will never see me get in one of these because a friend of mine nearly fell to her death on the Zipper at the Del Mar Fair when I was a kid. My only Zipper credit will be the one on my pants This beauty was an awesome beast Creep Show! Why pay money for this when all you need to do is walk around and see the carnies Star Flyer goodness. Although, I wouldn't trust it at a Fair because it still scares me silly when riding at a REAL park Credit! Crazy Coaster! Your typical spinning silly wild mousey coastey The Ferris Wheel was closed because they had a jumper the day before... SPEED! IT'S LIKE A DRUG! Credit! Everyone loves the rib breaking, bone smashing, baby maker punching, rough sex ride they get on this 8th wonder of the world Time to cool off on a hot, hellish day in Arizona Disk-O! Hey Bruno! Any one now why it's called Dodgem? Anyone? Answers will be much appreciated Techno Jump is the wannabe "Bouncey Bouncey" Ride from the TPR Spain Tour. I have yet to ride one that was as insane and as intense as the one in Parque Zaragoza. Here's the lame attempt at trying to be cool and top the "Bouncey Bouncey" Ride Freefall! At least no Zombies are trying to run up and eat your flesh...that's left up to the sharks in the tank. This guy peed his pants and the ride was closed after this shot. Some people are just so weak in the bladder Credit! "It's, like the most awesome, like, ride in, like, the entire, like, universe" Direct quote taken from rider after getting off this ride...like. It's, like, a snake or something Look at all the, like, people, like, enjoying themselves and some junk No big @$$ bruises on this slide on anyone's @$$ Time to check out the games and carnies I am in heaven! Fried EVERYTHING! Cassie got a frozen banana because she likes her arteries to not be clogged by fatty mcfatfat Time for Fried Oreos and for my heart to stop...Boo-Ya! Cassie's first ever fried anything at the Fair. She was not pleased and enjoyed her banana instead Why aren't Fried Oreos a food group? They are so good for you! Here's the infamous carosuel. Why is it infamous? Google "Pima County Fair Carosuel" and let me know what you find...seriously...I want to know! And for all those credit whores and just plain whores...here is Puff the Magic Weed Dragon He's huffing and puffing and enjoying Mary Jane Pima County Fair will be 100 next year but still younger than Jeff Johnson. (sorry Jeff, I had to) Check out this awesome train display! Model trains are cool This train display just got cooler because it has a Fair full of carnies! It even has a miniature golf course! At least Elissa isn't here screaming "Penalty!" at everyone. If you don't know what Coaster Expedition that is from then you need to start buying the Coaster Expedition DVD's because they are AMAZING! Let me just go get my sewing kit and eat it because that's a freakin cake! Bungee Jumping > Sky diving. Yes, you read that right! Feel free to comment because you are all wrong unless you agree with me Here's where all the freaks and geeks and nerds and turds live...the REAL freak show! Now go and enjoy a fried anything at your local Fair because they want your support! That is all!

Robb and Elissa are roller coaster Gods. Don't mess with the Gods or you will experience the Wrath of the Gods. Jimmy "There's my biblical reference on a Sunday" Bo

Out of all the "ghost" shows on TV now (Ghost Hunters, Ghost Lab, Ghost Adventures, etc...) I only watch Ghost Adventures because 1) The guys are bad@$$es 2) They get really good evidence and don't wait for commercial break to show it to you and 3) They are actually quite funny in a lot of the episodes. The other shows are just "meh" to me. I also hear that they do guest ghost haunts at certain places where you can go with them. That's pretty sweet. Do you have to pay to go into these places at night or do you guys just sneak in?

Next time take a video camera with night vision and see if you can catch any of the sounds. This stuff is awesome and I would love to do this. Any chance your going to go to the Birdcage Theater in Tombstone? That place is freaking sweet!

If I win a jackpot in Vegas over $10,000 then I might consider doing this. For that price I'm not about to spend it on a slow not-so-freefall. Then again, maybe there are discount tickets along the strip. It seems there are discounts tickets for everything on the strip somewhere as long as you look at the right place. I was still stoked about getting Zumanity tickets for $25 each on the lower level. Jimmy "Can I base jump off the Strat?" Bo

^It's was Thursday, March 18th. A beautiful day at the park because no lines and great weather

Part 4: More Getty Museum, Hollywood and The Grove The outside of the Getty Museum they have some awesome gardens. It was in bloom when we were there but if you've ever seen the movie "Coraline" and seen that garden, that's what the garden looked like. Then we drove down Sunset Blvd through Beverly Hills and into Hollywood. We drove by several hot spots but didn't get out because it was super packed. Then we made our way to The Grove which is an outdoor mall with a Farmer's Market attached at the end of it. The Farmer's Market was amazing. There were several different food vendors throughout the Market all selling dinner and it was super ahrd to pick where to eat. They even had their own brewed beer there so I had to try that! Onto the pictures! The gardens outside the Getty Museum had a Cactus Garden...it's not like we haven't seen that in Arizona before. Cassie's all ike "Jim, we have this at home. Why the hell are you taking pictures of cactus you nerd?" A small creek that runs down from the very top of the Getty to the garden below It's part Alice in Wonderland and part Coraline gardens Two tree stumps infront of the garden Four tree stumps in front of the garden Is that a squatting toilet like in Japan? Strolling through Beverly Hills I thinkk this place is pretty famous...I think famous people have stayed here...I think it's in a famous city...I think it's boring Cruising down Sunset Blvd. Ghetto Star Seeing Tours! Take a 15 passenger van and cut the top off and make people pay you tons of money to see the hedges of a stars' home This is where the Academy Awards are held! Wonder Woman's butt is not looking so wonderful Hard Rock Cafe! This is where The Jay Leno Show will soon be filmed Do all theaters in China look like this? If so then I want to go to China and see Avatar in Chinese! That is downtown L.A. as seen from the parking structure at The Grove! Thankfully we didn't park in that parking structure Here it is...The Grove. It's just another outdoor mall in California What's so special about The Grove...they have a trolley and... ...they have An American Girl store. If you don't know what that is then you are one of the lucky ones. Unfortunately, both my sister and Cassie grew up in that era when this was HUGE and they insisted on going in. Jeff and I left them to go and get a drink. Farmer's Market! Most Farmer's Market across the United States aren't stationary. This Farmer's market is here year round and they have amazing eats. Meg is all excited because she knows what she is going to get for dinner while the rest of us have no idea. There are so many options! If you have ever had some of Robb's amazing wings and loved the hot ones then this palce is for you. There are sauces in here that are hotter than Robb's @$$ burning wings. I think Robb should bottle his hot sauce and sell it in here...this stuff is insane! Like most Farmer's Market's this one had fresh everything including fruit. Geez...can you tell Meg and I are related? Finally we all got our dinner and each person had something from a different country. For desert, PinkBerry Frozen Yogurt with Captain Crunch toppings again. Here's The Grove at night! Coolio! They had a mix of wannabe Bellagio fountains and DCA World's of Color going on infront of the main entrance. This fountain also played commercials...lame! More Grove awesomeness! The Grove Theaters. Do they have Avatar in Chinese?!?!?! And that's it for the report. Thanks for reading everyone! JimmyBo out!

Part 3: L.A. Area with an extensive look into the Santa Monica Pier. We spent the day traveling around L.A. with my sister and her husband. Even though I lived in Southern California for 22 years there were still several places in L.A. that I have never been to. Venice Beach was awesome in so many ways and only pictures can described this wacked out place. Venice actually has canals like in the real Venice. Although there were no Sharks in Venice it was still a good time. We saw a female duck literally get raped by a male duck...Oh how Spring is in the air. Then we visited the Getty Museum which was amazing. The building itself is awesome and the view and outstanding. Ok, enough blabber... Onto the pictures! Hollywood! Save the Peak! Ladies and Gentlemen...I give the extensive look intot eh Santa Monica Pier! Amazing, no? Not what you expected? Too bad...deal with it! Cassie and I ate lunch at the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company because she has never been to one. In my honest opinion, it's just over-priced seafood for an ok atmosphere. At least we had an amazing view that you can't get in Arizona! Lunch Time! Where's the shrimp Lt. Dan? At the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica they were giving out free diet coke and food. How can anyone pass that up? And then we discovered PinkBerry. Oh how I loved Frozen Yogurt. This was Cassie's. Mine had Captain Crunch as a topping and it was freaking delicious! Venice Beach! I can't wait to see what freaks are out today! Venice Beach is home to Muscle Beach. If you don't know what Muscle Beach is then let me show you... Basically people come and work out on the beach. Some guys are completely ripped like the guy on the bike on the left while others are not so ripped like the old bald guy on the right The aliens have landed on Venice Beach Somehow I don't think the Wrold's Best funnel Cakes can top Knott's Berry Farm's World's Best Funnel Cakes. If you can't spell world then it can't be good Acid trip anyone? After running away from the crazies on the beach, we walk 1 block in from the beach and we arrive on the canals of Venice. They have walkways and bridges over the canals that guide you throughout the entire place. This was right after the female duck (in the middle) just got raped by the male duck (upper right). It happened so fast I couldn't even get a picture of him on top. It was crazy watching duck porn LIVE! Interesting fact about the canals in Venice is that every house along the canals has it's own architecture. This was an Arizonan Adobe house on the canal. Feels like home! More houses with interesting architecture with the canal running through the middle We are now on a monorail. Where can we be going? We are climbing up a steep grade overlooking I-405. Where are we going? Oh my god...another monorail is going to hit us! Look out! Where are they coming from? Where are we going? Hey! That's where we are headed. The getty Museum. It's on top of a cliff and the only way to get there is to get a monorail credit! WOO! Where should we start? It's like an amusement park for museum nerds like my sister! I do admit that the architecture was pretty awesome! In the getty they had 16th and 17th century rooms filled with real artifacts from those eras. Here's a 24 foot tall painting of some gay King More rooms filled with stuff Let's take this bed home. Can you imagine trying to sleep on that thing? Were people really that much shorter back then? Hey look, another bed that my feed would hang off the edge of. Another room filled with stuff. I think this was from the 16th century which would be the 1500's people It's a giant carpet on the wall. Is that where they belong back in the day? Hey look, my famous artwork is on the wall! In my spare time I like to apint and then I sell it to these musuems and they display them on their walls. I like seeing my work on the walls Here's another one of mine...I'm pretty good huh? This is what my garden looked like so I decided to paint it with these colors. Another one of my beautiful pieces of artwork! As i said before...the Getty is on top of a hill and it's view is amazing! Here's a view from outside. Next up, Part 4: More Getty, Hollywood and The Grove

Part 2: Knott's Berry Farm I haven't been to Knott's since right after Sierra Sidewinder opened up so I was excited to get my first new credit in about a year...Pony Express! While I much prefer the Vekoma Motobikes over this Zamperla contraption (Sorry Bruno) it was an ok ride. I really disliked how it started to get interesting and then it just ended...Boo! Cassie and I took our friend Kenna and she had never been on a looping coaster before and she was terrified of coasters. So what ride did I take her on first...Silver Bullet of course (too bad Xcelerator had to rip it's cable in people's faces otherwise that would have been our first ride). We had lunch at the amazing Ghost Town Grill and found out interesting facts about the Knott family like that Mr Knott invented the Boysenberry. Delicious! Then for dinner we went to TGI Fridays where there's always a good drink to be had. Onto the photos! Here we are...America's First Theme Park The new 2014 Women's Bobsled team. HA! That would be pretty funny Silver Bullet Loop...check. Derek can get his tissues now. The inversion that's not an inversion half inversion but still count it as an inversion. Make sense? Good! A REAL inversion where people lose personal items like their virginity Helix of death, doom, and terror over the lake filled with a Mega Shark and a Giant Octopus Ghost Town...the only themed area of the park left alone by Cedar Fair and it's still my favorite area of the park. Ghostrider oh how you used to be so good but now you are just a used up porn star with many bumps, bruises, and straches that can never be fixed "Poor unfortunate souls" as sung by the evil octopus in Little Mermaid Strolling through Ghost Town. This reminds me a lot of Tombstone, AZ. The Blacksmith was doing his horseshoe making for a school class Cassie died! Oh No! At least you know if someone died on a ride here they could probably get a good rate for a coffin. Here's our placemat at lunch at the Ghost Town Grill...fun fact's about the Knott Family and Knott's Berry Farm Bird Cage Theater where Steve Martin once performed. I've been to the real one in Tombstone and it's haunted. More Ghost Town scenery and shops The Old School house which is a National Historical Landmark Inside the Old School House some of it's original teachers were still there! Just kidding...they are just white haired people who I yelled "Hey Baldy!" Teacher's wages back in the day. I loved the people that "Gave up". There must have been some little brats in that class And now it's new credit time. Pony Express in all it's "My Little Pony" awesomeness The first overbanked turn which goes over the Grand Canyon! No joke! Here it comes, flying over the station! Is it just me or does everyone have two pairs of right and left legs? They belong in the Freak Show! Coming in for the picture! SCREAM! Then when it started to get cool and enter the tunnel the ride ended. Kind of lame but I got the credit! OH MY GOD! I am on heaven! Ready for the World's Best Funnel Cakes! I'm drooling just looking at this picture! Cassie and Kenna shared one with apple topping while I ate my own with Strawberry toppings. I may be fat now but it was so worth it. Time to check out the Mystery Lodge. At one time the old man used to scare me because he was so creepy looking. Now, he still scares me because he is STILL CREEPY! Scenery by the Mystery Lodge The awesome attraction that is the Calico Mine Ride. This used to be my favorite ride in the park back when I was 3 years old! Timber Mountain Log Ride. If you still put your hands up it still screams at you "Sit Down!" Boomerang was closed which was a good thing. I wasn't ready for a headache. Maybe they should invest in some of those new trains! Supreme Scream is where people scream supremely Supreme Scream is sponsored by Toyota? Pray that the brakes and acceraltors work properly! Xcelerator is my favorite ride at the park. Even though it wasn't opened today it was still the best ride I went on that day! And now the long running joke I love to make..."Let's go ride what Tijuana's drinking water gives you...Montezuma's Revenge!" Serious Note: It was running great today! Jaguar! No line meant we sat in the front and back and two very different rides. The front has lots of air rushing into your face... ...while in the back seat you get whiplash. End of story Time to stroll through Camp Snoopy which has changed dramatically since when I was 3 years old Don't fall in the water ladies! Sierra Sidewinder Lift Hill. Can you spot JimmyBo? Neither of the girls like spinning rides so I took this ride by myself. Our car was spinning like crazy cuz there was only three of us. This thing was hauling butt today! Yay! I didn't puke like Jow after riding Tatsu for the first time! If you know where this train is, then you are a Knott's Berry Farm NERD! Hey look! You can ride a Cock on the Carosuel Instead, Cassie and Kenna ride an Ostrich. And after our tour to Rooster Cogburn's Ostrich Farm, I would never want to be on an Ostrich in my entire life life. Time for the super hokey and super lame Wild West Stunt SHow. They changed the actors and script since the last time I saw it but still had the same stunts. Hello Kitty? Seriously? Wow...maybe like 3 girls in the stands laughed at this one I still love how they use the water effect though. People still can't read "Wet Zone" on the seat they are sitting in and move up halfway through the show. And the poor cowboy still falls to his death in the end. Time to drink and eat across the street! This is probably one of the smartest moves made by Knott's or TGI Friday's...this place is always packed after the park closes. After a couple (and by couple I mean 5) drinks this is what it looks like trying to find your car in tha parking lot. Thank God that our car was the only car left in the parking lot! Wait...where is it? Next up, Part 3: L.A. Area with an extensive look into the Santa Monica Pier! You don't want to miss it!

While I don't really have a Spring Break at my job, but Cassie had 2 weeks off so we decided to head out to So Cal and spend some time in the beautiful weather out there. The weather out here in Tucson this winter has been crazy! As of this writing there is still SNOW on our local mountains which is very unusual. We couldn't have ask for nicer weather while we were out in So Cal. The report will be split into 4 parts: Part 1 San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park, Part 2 Knott's Berry Farm, Parts 3 and 4 L.A. Area with an extensive look into the Santa Monica Pier Part 1: San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park I can't remember the last time I went to this park but I'm pretty sure it had to be at least 15 years ago. I remember there being a monorail type tram that took you all throughout the park. The monorail is gone and now it's a normal tram and it only takes you through most of the park. You can walk to a lot more exhibits now. They had one of those giant ballons like at Disney World's Boardwalk but it was closed that day. The animals were out and about and there was even a month old BABY ELEPHANT! He was pretty damn cute. Onto the Photos! First off...the drive out to California. This is Picacho Peak the greenest I have ever seen it. At the base of this Peak is Rooster Cogburn's Ostrich Ranch. If you haven't seen my Trip Report from there then check it out...it's that CRAZY! At a rest area, make sure your pets watch for Cow Patties...ummm...what? Here we are at the Wild Animal Park. This is the Flamingo Lagoon near the entrance. This place has amazing scenery throughout the park Off in the distance are the first animals we see on the tram tour. They were some type of deer with a white oval on their backside...I kid you not! This bird is taller than Cassie. Of course that's not saying much since she's only 5ft tall but that was one huge bird! Deer or Gazelle...you name it you get to eat it. Both are tasty! Here is Geoffery the Giraffe. He has a black tongue because he's black at heart I think there is about to be a throw down at the eating trough. My money is on the guy with the huge horns Water Buffalo...the lions best freind! Why? Well, watch the LIFE on the Discovery Channel and find out Here's more gazelle although I think these guys took some sort of steriod because they are HUGE! A view from the top of the tram tour looking down on the "African" Valley Zebra! There is a 3 month old baby in there somewhere. Are Zebras black with white stripes or white with black stripes? Again, if you answer it correctly you get to eat it! I think this lion is dead Another Flamingo Pond with more Flamingos! Imagine that! Flowers...yay...woohoo...a-a-a-choo! More pretty flowers but none as pretty as Flower in Bambi Here's another bird taller than Cassie. This is a Pelican and holy hell he was tall! What the Duck! WTD! Meerkats are awesome in so many ways... ...they sit on top of their house... ...and they sit in their food piles. These guys are great! There's the 1 month old baby elephant. Born on Valentine's Day. Oh so cute Baby elephant's nursing. Look away people...nothing to see here! Bald Eagle. Why are they called bald? Does that mean every human with white hair on their head should be called bald? I'm going to start doing that now...every person I see with white hair I'm going to say "Hey baldy!" That is a Prarie Dog. He's poking his head out just to see what's up Oh my God! An animal is out of it's cage! Oh wait, that's just Cassie. Nevermind, but look at that Big Horn...he can easily jump over the electrified fence! The California Condor...once nearly extinct and now still nearly extinct. What a bunch of ugly looking animals destroying a view from Condor Ridge Now that's a better view that the animals have run away Hey look! Another bird bigger than Cassie! Her wing span is not quite as big as the Condor And finally we drive off into the sunset. Next up, Part 2: Knott's Berry Farm

The Viynlmation stuff is sweet! Again, if and whenever you guys need help with filming let me know. I know I will have a free day when I'm up in Phoenix on Saturday April 17th.

^So it's Boothill and this place and not to visit JimmyBo? WTF Guy! I will give you a grand tour of the Tucson that I know well and love from my college days...Micro Breweries and strip clubs!
