Look at the bar!

Aug. 1st: After I got back to pick up the cute fiancee, we decided to go get a cheap room near Disneyland and spend part of Sunday there. Getting a cheap room via Priceline dot com is pretty easy.
$40 this time for a room a half mile from Disneyland.
On the way down there on Saturday. We were passing through Riverside Ca. and I remembered that cute fiancee had wanted in the past to go to the "Old Spaghetti Factory'' there. I darted off the freeway and headed there with haste to give her a treat. (not that we needed the pasta carbs)
We had a nice meal. I love the decor there. There is this bar to the left of the entrance that is spectacular.

The low light doesn't do this bar justice, it is beautiful. As we were leaving I had to snap a picture of it. I had not been to this place in years, and in my crappy memory I had it that there was a plaque near the bar saying where this thing came from. I could have sworn that I was told by and employee long ago that this thing was taken from an old Victorian hotel in San Francisco.
I once again asked an employee where the bar came from since there was no plaque...lol
She said it came from a John Wayne movie. Now here is where my memory is always fertile, movies. Can I remember things like birth dates...no What I promised my cute fiancee I would do for her last week....no Can I remember the Pythagorean theorem to save my life in Algebra class...much to my physicist type father's chagrin, absolutely not. But I can remember at that instant when the word John Wayne came from that bar tenders mouth what movie it was from.
North to Alaska! The Crap that sticks in my memory..sigh

We had a great time at Disneyland here is a picture of the cute fiancee and I there.

She never lets me post her picture here on the blog, so you will have to use your memories of what she looks like to see her next to me....grin

Watering Joggers

August 1st it was my pleasure to help out with the running team for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. A good friend of mine called me, he needed someone to man an aid station for this running group during a training run.
My friend Mike and his very nice wife Dawn called me early in the week for this little bit of fun.
I had to set up a few things first. Number one get cute fiancee into a hotel near her work. A Hotel with a tub. We have no tub here at the cabin as I may have mentioned before, so this can keep her happy with me for not having one. Had a nice Mexican dinner with the cute fiancee, dropped her off at the hotel and headed south.
It is a little bit of a drive from Victorville Ca. to San Diego Ca. I made it to S.D. by 8pm and got gas and headed to the Marina where I was going to spend the night at Mike and Dawn's cabin cruiser.
I had just settled in on the boat when the cute fiancee called me. I stepped out on the back deck to talk to her. We were chatting and she was telling me how nice her bath was and how many hours she had been in the tub when I saw something in the water behind the boat.
Now I didn't get to experience the 60's because I was too young, but there was something small and florescent green swirling in the water. I had to describe it to her and then she asked if I was smoking something.
It was kind of cool. The moon was kind of out but it was getting over cast. The water was black and I could see this green dot swirling up to the surface. I told her it was weird to see it. She suspected I was drinking. I told her not yet and opened a beer on the phone for her...grin
As I was talking to her I looked around the black water behind the boats in the marina.
The little green specs were coming up everywhere. I don't have a low light camera darn it, this would have been a cool thing to shoot on video. It looked like little green constellations popping up in the water around the boat. I got a close look at one that was right at the back of the boat.
It swirled and undulated towards the surface and then swam down disappearing. It only went on for a few minutes then it stopped. I just now looked it up (google and now bing too are our friends.) I found an article after looking up "bioluminescent fish in San Diego Bay".
Looks like this thing may be what the article called a fireworm ( Odontosyllis phosphorea ). It looks like I was in the right place at the right time for this display according to the article.

quote from the article: The precisely timed bioluminescent displays have been tracked like clockwork in Southern California, the Caribbean and Japan, peaking one to two days before each quarter moon phase, 30 to 40 minutes after sunset and lasting approximately 20 to 30 minutes.

Wow what a treat, if I had known I was this lucky I would have bought some lotto tickets.

Ok so back to the the running bit. I got up at 4 am and took a shower and came back to the boat and read for a while. Mike came aboard at about 5 bringing coffee. Coffee one of my few vices.
We gathered our stuff later and headed for Miramar Lake in the hills near the Naval Air Base of the same name.

I was loaded down with water and a gatoraid like substance plus other essencials for the runners. I was sent to the other side of the lake to set up.

I'm a people watcher so this was a real fun gig for me.

The people that were running are part of a group that fund raises through sponsors for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. They were getting in shape for some marathons that were coming up. The group was very appreciative of me doing this for them, trying to thank me on each lap while out of breath. Great group of people.

Mike coming in on his first pass. Then Dawn and running partner. (in white shirts)


I felt like Crocodile Dundee on his first day in New York, saying good morning to all passers by.
People of all types went by. Walkers, some with dogs. Speed walkers. Joggers and the speedy runners. Bikers on every thing from pro racing bikes, beach cruisers and mountain bikes. Even dads and moms riding with there little ones on bikes with training wheels.
Sitting there with the lake cove in front of me was rather peaceful even with all the heavy breathing people going by.

It was funny how many people came by and said how nice it was that I had set up this table with water and stuff and was just giving it away....lol A few of the more entrepreneurial types thought I was selling the stuff.
The best part was this one crazy haired lady on roller blades. She was rocking out and skating, kicking her legs out. She was wild eyed skating as she hit the corner where I was set up.
She was even more crazy and rock'in out on her next pass going the opposite way a few minutes later.
I was out there for a few hours, but the time went fast. The people watching and little chats with strangers was fun. Handed out water to those that looked like they needed water, and to those people walking their dogs and made sure their pets got some water too.

After passing out water to all those thirsty people I discovered the post sitting next to my truck, what an name for the location I was passing out water at.

Yep it says starvation cove...lol

It was really a blast doing it, and would love to do it again.

Highway 2 again.

I picked up my son Tuesday morning from his mom's work. We will be together all week and should have fun doing things. I asked him if he wanted to go up to the Mt. Wilson Observatory.
For those of you not familiar with So Cal, above the city of Pasadena Ca. there is a mountain that is basically at this time an antenna farm. Mt. Wilson has a rather cool history dating back to the time of the local Indian Tribes using the areas for their summer homes to get out of the L.A. area heat. You can even hike an old Indian trail that starts in Sierra Madre Ca. and ends near the Observatory on Mt. Wilson.
So once again I digress. He said He would rather go up over the top on Hwy. 2 instead of going the Freeway route. We headed up the mountain and arrived at the Observatory gates at 9 am.
Naturally the gates open at 10 am. We got out of the car and looked over the edge of the mountain near the gates and looked at the L.A. skyline. Alex then went into the car and started taking the convertible top down so we could drive topless. It was very nice up there so top down was a must anyway. A gate near there that normally says "road closed" was open so we drove down it to see if we could kill some time. Mind you that the car we are driving is a '92 Geo Metro Convertible and not a good off road vehicle. The road was steep and dirt. We went down it for a mile or so and decided it would be better if we turned around before we got into trouble. We got back to the top and we hadn't killed but 15 min. Press on down the road was the better Idea, since we have been there many times we didn't need to wait that long to see it again.
With the top down the drive was awesome.

You can just make out Mt. Wilson in the background, the one with all the antennas on it, to the left of My son Alex in the 45 MPG cruiser car.
I posted over a month ago that we had been up this highway and that the full length of it was open now. The route is kind of delineated by a set of tunnels. At these tunnels there is a sign that says there are Big Horn Sheep in the area. We have yet to see them.
I'm kind of weird in that I like to honk my horn in tunnels. My son rolls his eyes when I do it.
So this time I asked if he would like to honk the horn in the tunnel and I pointed to the button on the steering wheel. He said no of coarse. These tunnels have no lights in them so they get a little dark inside. The echo inside with the top down was kind of cool. We get about 50' inside the tunnel and Alex reaches over and hits the horn. He laughs, so I point my head upward and howl in the tunnel, very cool echo. It is Tuesday so there are very few cars on the road this time of the week. There are two tunnels and they are separated by a gap in the mountain about a hundred feet long. I stopped there commenting that we never see any of these Big Horn Sheep. We are looking up the steep mountain side and out over the edge of the valley side and up over the mouths of the tunnels. The silly teenager in Alex kicks in at this time and he says " HEY LOOK!", I turned my head to look knowing full well he was pulling my leg. Punk teenager...grin
We started through the other tunnel and he had to honk the horn again.

This is the area of the tunnels and where you are suppose to be able to see the sheep.


Highway 2, or the part we were traveling on, the Angeles Crest Highway, was originally constructed in 1929 as a fire road, but really didn't get paved or the tunnels and bridges built until after world war II. Finally fully opening in 1956 from what I have read.
As you drive along you see rock walls and pullout areas that have drinking fountains built of rock.

I like how they paid attention to details back then.

The extra grout work between the rocks is really cool. This drinking fountain was not functional, but it looked like it was part of this whole rock construction in the pictures. The larger wall behind every thing was a dam of sorts and water was held behind it, maybe for the drinking fountain?. Water was still coming out of a pipe sticking out of the dam so this thing was built to last.

We pressed on down the Highway and passed the two small ski areas that hide back there. We also drove through this really cool shaded campground. It would be cool to camp there. It is set beside a stream that would be fun to put my feet in.
The best part was down the road a little bit more. There is a part that was heavily damaged a bunch of years back and they had recently rebuilt a lot of the road out there including the guardrail system. We were driving along when I saw something weird in the turnout ahead.

Look closely at the tops of the guardrail anchor posts. Piles of rocks. I pulled off and Alex and I had to get out of the car and say "what the?".
I'm looking at it as art myself. Cairns I believe is what these are. Some of them look pretty interesting.



We naturally had to try our hand at piling rocks.
Here is mine.

And here is Alex's.

Here are some more that were there.



We spent a half hour playing with the rocks there at this turn out, and as usual rocks ended up in the car. We are rock hounds I tell you.
What a great drive.

I'm so far behind that my own adventures are lapping me

I haven't posted in almost a month. We have had a few adventures since then too. My camera is full of fun stuff and I need to get typing. I'm having a good time doing it and I hope to share with as many people as I can. I'm sure that there are plenty of people out there that can't go places of even leave there homes, but might like to see little parts of the world through other peoples eyes at least. I have been, vicariously, traveling on a few blogs and sites myself over the years. I recommend " Bumfuzzle " dot com to anybody I meet. The site "Set Sail" follows the Dashew's in there travels on there really cool yacht. Those links are on the side bar on this blog. I hope to post today's adventure and get caught up over this week in the evening.

Up date on My son and our Disneyland outting

A couple of weeks ago My son had an accident. He jumped off a roof and landed wrong, sprained, both his ankles and almost broke both heals, plus cracking his growth plates in both ankles.
Well last weekend (11th and 12th)was my time to visit. I went down and picked him up.
He now has two temporary casts on and is in a wheelchair.
He was pretty good at the transfer from the chair to the car and back to the chair.
We went over Highway 2 again and he enjoyed it more this time.
The fun part came when we got back to the cabin. Our Cabin is on a hill, and has a long stairway to get to the front door. Easy enough, piggy back rides up. This worked well. My excellent neighbor Jane, who is a chiropractor, saw this and was asking how my back was holding up. Alex is still light thank goodness so I was not in need of her services...grin
Saturday we spent the day at home, but Sunday he wanted to go to Disneyland.
I suspect he wanted to go because if you are in a wheelchair you get to kind of cut to the front of the line.
Sunday was a busy day actually. Cute fiancee was leaving for almost a week to go greet into this world her new and 11th grandchild. We had to have her at the Airport by 4am so we were up very early.
My son and I tried to kill time but still we were the first ones in line at the Disneyland parking structure. We went and got his ticket then waited in line. I got this picture of him near the entrance to Disneyland and California Adventure.

We finally got into the park and went to the rides. First was Space Mountain. He was able to get in and out of the coaster cars easily. We made it over to the Haunted house. This was the coolest part. Just in case there is a few that have never been to the Disneyland Haunted House it is part walking tour and part tram car (doombuggies). The entrance starts you off in this big room that is really an elevator that gives you the illusion that the room is stretching this sets you up for a hallway with scary stuff in it that leads to this tram that carries you through the Haunted house.
If you are in a wheelchair they slow the tram down some and get you on then speed it back up.
So we load Alex on the tram and go through the ride. Instead of getting off at the normal point they let you stay on and the ride, and it passes through a room you never see. It is just the Maintenance area for the ride but it is cool because it is kind of lit and you can see how the buggies ride on a track and move around. The ride attendants bring back the wheelchair and we unload without the tram stopping. (side note if you are on the ride sometimes the buggies stop and a voice comes on all spooky like, and says "spankish spirits have interrupted your journey please stay seated in your doombuggie.. I forget the rest....lol)
After you are off the ride they send you back through the system to the room/elevator. It is so weird to be in the room as it is going up. The illusions are revealed as the painting that stretch go slack and roll back up. It was rather cool to see that side of Disneyland. Funny thing in the room/elevator, the first time we went a girl was operating the controls and she said that she knew the room went down but she still could believe it the way it looks at it all retracts into place. The girl and her garb, all attendents at the haunted house are dressed in green, black, and white Mortician outfits, and having Alex with me reminded me of something that happened when he turned 5. His mother and I decided to celebrate his birthday at Disney World and we had a condo deal set up for a week there in Orlando Florida. On the day we were celebrating Al's birthday we were standing in the line for the Disney World version of the "Haunted Mansion".
We are standing by the horse drawn hearse, and there is two Attendents talking and guiding the people into the attraction. One is a young girl and the other a young man. Alex is just 5 that day and he starts talking to this young lady and going on about how it is his birthday and we are going back to our condo and going to have cake and ice cream with candles and all the hoop la.
With out breaking stride my son asks this young lady if she would like to come to his party. We all cracked up. The girl without batting an eye say sure sweetheart I would love to join you at your party. I remind you she is in this Morticians outfit. The young man leans down and asks Alex what his secret is.....lol He had been asking her to go on a date for months and had never gotten a YES. It was such a funny event. I just had to share that memory.

All in all I don't think you get any better deal if you are in a chair or not. Back tracking through the exits is a pain, dodging people and other wheelchairs. On some rides there is even wheelchair lines.
The Indiana Jones ride is kind of a pain, for unloading the handicapped. They don't back load it or use a special car. They move you thru an elevator system and load you with the rest of the riders. You go through the ride and then you have to hold all the people back and move traffic backwards so you can get back to the chair and then push it up to the ride to get your handicapped charge then they can load the ride. We rode it twice and both times it was a snafu.
It was still fun and the ride attendents were helpful, but it seemed kind of backwards.
On the way out I stopped by the Town Hall so I could suggest they need to work on that ride for the Handicapped. I was nice about it, I hate being bitchy at the Happiest Place On Earth...grin
We even got Alex on a few rides he had never been on. Like the Submarine ride. At one time it was the "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" ride, But they have updated it so it can be the "Finding Nemo" ride. Alex was teenage aloof about that ride. We also went on the Peter Pan ride because he said he had never been on it. Aloof again on that ride. At his age it is more about the roller coaster.
We had a fun day, and adventure to remember.

PS Cute fiancee's new Granddaughter was born 7/13/2009 her name is Kiale Anne.
If the powers that be permit I may post pictures.

4th of July trip

The weekend of the 4th was great. We had been invited to a party by a few friends from High School. Some of them we hadn't seen in 20 years most since we graduated. It is funny how you can go to something like this and walk up to people and they smile, you look at each other, there is something there but you are just not connecting. Finally you ask there name, they say it, BOOM it all comes rushing back. You recognize them instantly after that. Cute fiancee had to work Saturday so we got to the party late. It was a blast to see all these people after all these years. An old friend Scott Madden has a new movie out that all Vampire fans should look up. Movie: The Kiss. It is an Independent film but all that have watched have loved it. Cute fiancee and I will see it soon. Scott said we needed to have a reunion of sorts for something we did in High School.
Way back in 1979 a few guys got together to set a world record in playing basket ball. The object was to play basket ball continuously for 100 hours to beat the record at the time . This group didn't make it. I'm not sure who took up the task for a second try, but I remember one day as I walked the halls to my next class, way back then, hearing someone say "hey Kris is a jock" or something close to that....lol Back in High School I was involved in swimming, I also ran track the last year of school, but I went around school bragging that I was the Rim High School swim team back then. Actually Rim High, even to this day doesn't have a swim team, but my dad talked the school into getting the info so I could go to a CIF (California Interscholastic Federation for those out of state) Swim meet and reprisent Rim as a swimmer.
I'll digress here and say that the meet I went to was funny in a way. I swam 3 events at this pool out in the desert somewhere. The meet had all the events in a format that put the fastest timed people in the middle lanes and the slow ones at the edges of the pool. I was what I would call a reasonable swimmer, in the small YMCA leagues I swam in I was usually the fastest in the pool. Like all things, you might be the big fish in some pond or lake, but when you move up to a bigger body of water things maybe a little different. So because of the seating of these event I was put in the outer lanes with the slow people. I swam these races and came in 3rd in all, if I remember correctly. There was some big fish in the pool and I was not next to them so I couldn't even race them. Did well for Rim but not to CIF finals, not even my best times...ah the memories.
Back to the Basket ball bit, I was recruted in the hall ways of school and on a holiday weekend a bunch of guys and myself set off to beat the world record for playing basketball. It was for 100 hours, it even stretched over into a school day. for the last hour and a half of our 100 hours we had a good part of the school student body cheering us on. We were all delerious as hell after 4 days and 4 hours straight of being awake. I hear we played a great game of basketball during the last hour.
Now to tie it all together. I'm such a rambler...lol Scott wants to have a reunion of that group. I hope he doesn't want to try for another 100 hours, I can't stay up late any more...ah getting older can be fun....naps are good...grin

The party started to wind down some and cute fiancee and I had a plan of heading to our current favorite ghost town, Bodie, for the rest of the weekend. We were going to go up on Sunday morning but Cute fiancee talked me into driving to Bishop on Saturday night instead so we could get to Bodie early.
We ran home and packed real fast and hit the road. Bodie <(link to State Park site)is a ghost town in the Sierra Nevada's above Mono Lake in California. Map
It is well worth the drive to get there. We had heard it was on the list of closures if the stupid state doesn't get it's fiscal house in order.....grrrr don't get me started on stupid politicians...
We had been to Bodie about a year ago and we wanted to see it again.
So we hit the Highway at about 6pm and start heading north. It was the Holiday so the roads were almost clear. For those of you not familiar with California, there is a highway that runs up the eastern side of the Sierras that goes all the way to Canada. It passes by some popular towns like Mammoth, Carson City, Reno Nv, and Bishop Ca. It is the 395.
The old towns and geological sites are worth the drive alone. We had the long summer sunset and evening twilight most of the way north as we drove. Beautiful sunset. As it started to get dark the fireworks started to show up. Part of the 395 runs through the Mojave Desert and a lot of people like to camp and ride bikes and 4 wheelers out there. Between these campers and the small town firework shows we had a great show as we drove along. Here is a really cool part...grin
There is a little town along the 395 called Independence Ca., I have always wondered what they do on the 4th of July. I guess they have some really cool, small town fun. It was after 10pm as we started into the Independence area, and off towards the town as we approched there was a fireworks show going on. As we entered Independence the fireworks show came to a crescendo,
(had to look up how to spell that 64K word...sheesh) all these diffent colored explosions. It was kind of cool we got to see the end of the 4th of July fireworks show in Independence Ca...lol
By the time we got to the town airfield of course the California Highway Patrol had stopped traffic to empty out the fireworks spectators and we were stuck there for a while.
After that we followed this red Chevy PU truck all the way to Bishop. Knucklehead. He would drive fast and weave eratically, then drive slow and do a more gental back and forth motion. Well yes he was drunk and I didn't want be behind him but every time I passed him, he would just poor himself by us again. Idiot.
We made it to Bishop at about 11:30.
Bishop Ca. is one of the most beautiful town's in California. It is a town that is both rural and turist location. It is close to Mammoth Ski Resorts, The High Sierra's, including Mt Whitney, for fishing and hiking, and a place to stop with lots of hotels along the 395.
Most of the Hotels charge 80 to 100 bucks to stay this time of year, but I found this hole in the wall right off the Main drag. It is only 50 to 65 bucks to stay here and the rooms are clean and well kept. Best of all it had a tub. If we go on a trip and don't find a tub in the hotel my fiancee might do a Texas divorce on me. She is a tub girl and our poor cabin is rather tub challanged.
This place is pretty quaint. It must have been built in the 40's by the style of the place, but has held up well over the years. They have a website. Cute fiancee went and had a quick dip in their pool and we went to bed.
We got up early, had breakfast at a local eatery, and started north. It is fun to find hole in the wall place that only the locals go to. Less assembly line looking food like you get at Denny's or IHOP. Here are some pictures of the Sierra's as you climb the hill from Bishop (3500' approx)
to the summit near Tom's Place (7000').


In the last picture, to the right of the mountain is a ridge line, that is actually the rim of an ancient volcano. Highway 395 runs right through part of this huge caldera of this volcano.
When we have earthquakes down here at home I go to a website to see how strong they are and where it was located. I went to one of the links on that site that said big quakes and it had listed the name of this town called Tom's Place.

At times it looks like this small town is always shaking.
most are unfeelable (is that a word?) quakes. So I took some pictures to show how big the caldera is in this area.


There has been a lot of volcanic activity in this are over the Millennia. If you know what you are looking at it is amazing to think what it was like when all this was very active. If not then it is just plain beautiful country.
Cute fiancee thinks I'm nuts stopping all the time for pictures of this and that. The little mind reader knows I'm concocting a set up for the blog...lol
We headed for Bodie passing through the Mono Lake area and a town called Lee Vining, this place is the eastern gateway to Yosemite, a trip we must take someday.
You have to keep an eye out for the turn off for Bodie. It is just a slot canyon with a road in it, at the bottom of a hill. It has signs but you can miss it if you're not watching. You go up this canyon
following a creek. There was a guy tending a flock of sheep, as we went up, both of us thought one of the sheep got loose until we discovered it was one of the sheep dogs...lol
Finally you get to the end of the road. From hear on it is dirt. Not bad as dirt roads go. We even passed a Mercedes as we went up.

Bodie is a town kind of frozen in time. Or as the site liturature says "a town in a state of arrested decay" as you look inside the buildings and houses it looks like people just upped and left leaving things right where they were using them.
Cute fiancee found this tin pile as we walked in.

The Last people making Bodie there home left in the 1940's, so old cars litter the place.


It was kind of funny, the people up at the house in the last picture, were talking about how they wanted a picture taken in front of there new home. The place has tons of old stuff to look at.
If you are a nostalgia junkie you should go to Bodie.
I kept looking in the old buildings and seeing the old flooring and wall paper. Wall paper was really for keeping the cold winds out, and since this place is at over 8000' boy did they need it in the winter.


Other things would catch our eyes as we looked through the old poured class windows.
This light cover almost looked out of place but that was a style back in the twenties. Peaking in the window is all you can do here, but the stuff you see is interesting. Cans, Bottle cases, ice skates and such.


Cute fiancee caught this pattern on the glass at the church in town.

Here are some of the homes and buildings in Bodie.





The town's school is fascinating to peak into. This is the one place where it looks like people up and left with the books left open.


I'm glad Cute fiancee took the pictures of the school last time because I forgot to this time.

This town was kind of a head in the technology of the time. At the turn of the last century (1900) Bodie was running its mills and heating it's homes on fire wood, as in train loads of wood.
Some one saw some potential in a new fangled thing called A/C current, electricity. The Mine and Mill Stamping plant had a Hydroelectric plant put in back near the Sierra's and ran wires on poles to the town. One funny story I read was that they ran the wires strait as an arrow from the hydroelectric plant to the mill because they were afraid if they made any sharp bends the electricity would jump off the wires...lol They caused themselves a lot of labor going the direct way. On the back side of one of the hotels is this block and stone building with wires going into it.

And inside is these huge transformers. This was pretty cutting edge stuff when they put this in.
Of course the first winter the snow cut down the lines and they had to power the mill with the steam power again, and then the boiler blew up because they hadn't checked it in months because of the electricity was on. This is the problem with being early innovators. Thank goodness when our black berry goes on the fritz and we have to go back to our old cell phones it doesn't blow out the pocket that it is in.

The General Store and motor coach depot was interesting.



This old Dodge truck sitting at the old gas pumps still runs. The Mines and Stamping mill are on the hill behind the truck. Bodie was a gold town and very rough and tumble during it's time. If you go take the tour.
Another cool thing is that the summer rangers get to stay in some of the old houses in town.
Cute fiancee thought it would be cool to retire and come here and do a couple of summers just to stay in the town. This posting has taken almost three days to do....lol We had gotten to Bodie just after they opened and I had two other things on my mind that were in the area, but I will get back to those a little later.
It was a beautiful day on the 5th. It was actually an anniversary of sorts. Last year at that time I had proposed to The then Cute Girlfriend while at our favorite spot at Disneyland. This trip was a blast and Cute fiancee loved it.
More to follow.
