Nov 2nd - Welcome to November

November 2, 2017
Welcome foolish mortals.  This has been a pretty busy past few weeks so that's why I missed a few updates.  Been moving, storage, working and trying to maintain some sanity during all this time.  However, it's pretty much done and we're back now. 

So my favorite holiday is now past and we've only got 363 days left until next year.  While this year's date didn't mean much for me as I missed everything due to the move, the buildup was pretty nice and enjoyable.  Went to Knott's Scary Farms several more times and got many rides on Ghostrider, one of my favorite wooden coasters.  The haunts were good too and overall, I enjoyed the effort.  Made the time well spent and memories made.

So here we come Christmas!!!  Get ready.

Gonna cut this short but will update again.

Until the next time...

BBP out!!!

October 19th - Happy Anniversary

October 19, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals.  Well, it's been 2 years to the date that I started a new part in my life.  I have had the opportunity to work at perhaps my favorite position in almost eve.  I've been handed the keys to my position and have run with it, never looking back.  Have done a lot of impressive things over the past 2 years and most of them, I am very proud of.

Looking back now to our favorite time of the year, I've got some more updates on Knott's Scary Farm and also a new one in Disney's ...

October 1st - Happy Birthday

October 2, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals.  Welcome to October.  Before we continue, Happy 46th Birthday to Walt Disney World.  Epcot also turns 35 today. 

We are also in the beginnings of October and cruising during my favorite time.  Gonna give another update on Knott's Scary Farm in this so sit back and enjoy.

I've now been to Knott's Scary Farm 3 times since it's opened and each time has been unique and fun.  My last post had my opinions and brief info on the houses and scare zones and I'll continue with ...

Sep 27th - A review for opening night

September 27, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals.  Welcome to another addition of the BBP.  Today, I got a review of what I've seen at Knott's Scary Farm so far and a couple of brief news too.

Went to Knott's last Thursday, their opening night and it was kind of crowded, though a lot of it was for media night.  Speaking of media night, I was able to park for free and save $20 but that's because I'm BFB!!!

The way Knott's starts their Scary Farm event is by sending a bunch of "ghouls" from Ghost town into the crowd of...

Sep 21st - Here comes Fall

September 21, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals.  Here we are on the threshold to fall and I'm super excited.  The weather is changing, yes, we have a cool, rainy morning here in SoCal.  Awesomeness at it's finest!!!

Tonight is the opening of Knott's Scary Farm and I've got the scare pass so I can go every single night til Halloween.  I do plan on getting many visits in during that time and checking out all the haunts.  Going to be a 'Most Excellent" time. 

I love this time of year.  The season change, yes we get i...

Sep 11th - Thankful

September 11, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals.  I know today is September 11th and while the day holds certain meaning to me, it now holds even more...Thankfulness.

Yesterday, I sat by helplessly and watched Hurricane Irma hit my home state of Florida.  I'd seen the devastation that it left behind it in the Caribbean and could only hope for the best as she moved towards my hometown area of Tampa Bay.  Luckily, the Gulf Stream, the effect Cuba had on it or just nature, caused her to veer more eastern and instead ...

September 8th - A journey begins

September 8, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals.  Happy Friday and Happy September 8th.  While we're safe on the west coast of the US, my friends and family are preparing to deal with Hurricane Irma.  Sending positive vibes and thoughts over there and hope comes out well and unharmed.

So onto September 8th.  Today, as it has been mentioned every year since I started this site, I've recognized this date as a turning point in my life.  It all started this day, 31 years ago where a skinny, naive kid entered the world ...

September 1st - Welcome September

September 1, 2017
Greetings foolish mortals and welcome to September.  Can already feel a change in the air, though it's very hot right now, but fall is around the corner.  That means the haunts are almost here too.  In just a few weeks, we'll be seeing all the excitement for Halloween.  And of course, football is here too!!!  Baseball is almost over and while my team hasn't done great, they're rebuilding and making progress.  Maybe next year, but then again, that's been my slogan for them for so long.  Oh wel...

Greetings foolish mortals.  Here we are on the last day of August, the birthday month, and tomorrow will be September.  The month really flew by as has the year but hopefully soon, the cooler weather will be upon us and the haunts will be out in force.  Can't wait to experience a few of them this year.  Gonna be a good time.
