We spent a full day chasing every ride at the best of the DisneyWorld theme parks, Magic Kingdom. I know it is the best because it had one of the best rides ever (Splash Mountain RIP) and because they sell Orange Fanta / Dole Whip Floats. Since I had two of those in our day …

True “Inflation”
“Inflation is a vector, not a scalar. Ignore the abstraction at your own risk. Inflation is the rise in price of every single item for sale across a market, not just the “basket” of goods selected to be a good example, and subject to adjustment and correction over time.” –Michael Saylor “If the currency isn’t …
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
We spent a day with Emmaline and Zach at Animal Kingdom. It had been a few years since we’d been there. Adult Disney with adult children is still fun (maybe more fun)! We also explored the real Florida kingdom on its oldest scenic boat tour (in Winter Park).
4 Awesome Waterfalls at Virgin Falls State Natural Area (Sparta, TN)

Lots Of Hiking At Frozen Head State Park (Wartburg, TN)
Frozen Head State Park was our second-to-last TN state park. It has been on my list for a while (since it is a hiker’s state park). It has about 50 miles of hiking trails. We knocked out 20 miles of those while there. It also was towards the end of the Tennessee state park list …

Orbital Concert In Chicago
It had been 23 years since my college roommate, Brent, and I had seen one of our favorite bands, ORBITAL. I know you’ve never heard of them. That doesn’t change the fact that they are the best in the game. We headed to Chicago to see 1 of 2 shows they did in the US. …
