Check out what Jacob did to Stephan’s cube. A mighty tower of Starbursts, *and* his mouse glued to the monitor. This is a bag of awesome.

Spring break camping trip, day 9

March 29th, 2008

Start: Bakersfield, Ca

End: Gilroy, Ca

Miles driven: 210

We’re home!   Just unhitched the trailer and all that.  Was gonna post something pithy and reflective, but I have no energy for that.  So… closing out the trip log.

Spring break camping trip, day 8

March 28th, 2008

Start: Las Vegas, Nv
End: Bakersfield, Ca
Miles driven: 280

We made it back to California. Yay! We’re crashing at a hotel in Bakersfield - none of us wanna be in the trailer anymore.

This pic is the first thing I ordered at Black Angus for dinner… A rum n coke. Mmmmm.

Start: Williams, Az

End: Las Vegas, Nv

Miles driven: 230

Well, we’re back in Vegas again for a layover.  We’re heading home.  Not much to report — we’re meeting an old old old friend of Kelly’s for dinner, then it’s sleepytime for us n the kids.

Today’s pic is of the kids chilling next to the Grand Canyon Railway sign in Williams.

G & C

Tomorrow… Bakersfield.  I mean, tomorrow… Bakersfield.  Bakersfield.  Bakersfield.  Having a hard time getting excited about that.

    YOU WILL KNEEL BEFORE ZOD! Nothing more needs to be said. Despite the departure of director Richard Donner midway through production, his influence is still readily visible in the movie. In many ways, Superman II is a better movie. Terence Stamp simply owns every scene he's in as General Zod - I don't think I've seen anyone chew scenery as much, other than Shatner in Star Trek 2. Zod for president. http://www.zod2008.com

    The original Superman, and still one of my favorite movies. I just watched this with my kids, and it still holds up today. I never noticed this as a kid, but Christopher Reeve's acting as Clark Kent is AMAZING - you can see glimpses of Superman behind the glasses from time to time. If you haven't seen it in a long time, give it another look. It's americana at its best.
