Dizzy with Disney taking all my money and confusing me with its app to take more of it so we can ride the rides once we paid for admission.

Taking Maya to the vet. Inter digital furoncles.
Fatbike trails should be exceptional for the next few days.

Morning Monkeys.

Up before the dogs, that's never a good sign. Need to see about getting out of jury duty on the 6th and also have a dentist appointment that day, too. Good times. Winter storm warning, but only above 1000', so we should be good at river level.

This is the first and last time lol. But I will be around DC this summer and will fly her in to Kings Dominion so we can just crush awesome roller coasters continuously without all the theme crap for relative pennies.

The experience is working for her even with her inherited cynicism from me. I am going away for a year so the money is kinda worth it for memory making.

If she (and you) like roller coasters, screw all that other stuff and get ye to Cedar Point.
Can't in spring...logistics and nostalgia demand Kings Dominion...but if she takes a gap year or something when she's older I kinda want to do a motorcycle coaster quest...

how old is your kid? my wife has brought up the topic, and i am pretty adamant against going to di$ney. its got the 3 things i hate the most on vacations:

1 - large crowds
2 - long lines
3 - spending unnecessary amounts of money

She is 12 and anti-princess crap...makes things easy but still not cheap.

Great to hear. I just decided to go all out and hopefully can sell the wheelset from the bike and it should turn out to be an okay deal.
