We've reached 70 followers!

Congratulations M S, an acronym that's not very hard to figure out. Nice baby hammerhead there. Small, but a struggle I'm sure. Hammerheads are plentiful in the Florida keys. Did you know that? Not my game but bull heads are. I caught a 350 pounder last May just off of Big Pine.

As 70th follower you win a bag of "gummie worms" and a 1986 guide to Epcot Center!!!!!!! Just send your address to........oh, I already have it.

Please wait 2-3 weeks for delivery as I'll be in Lisbon Ohio on vacation starting Monday evening. Just a little breather to clear things up BUT Chief will keep posting updates here at "the times" while I'm out.

We've have some questions on things that I posted earlier. The question asked most is "did we do this on any other attraction?" The answer is hard to fathom, for us anyway, but....yes we did.

Chief and I met in 1986. The third day I knew him we were knee deep in Disney attractions.

I guess this phase, which is the preservation of Horizons, was only one adventure in a long string that spans some 23 years.

The more we think about this blog the more we realize that we pulled off some amazing shit and this blog is one small piece.

Chief is my soul brother and so is MJL.

Bath time

While Chief takes care of the mini farmer girl I'll get back to "Easy living" bath tub chick.
First, it was incredibly hard to run up the spiral staircase and get pics of her. This shot was my first and I wasn't happy with it all. REWIND.

REWIND to the time we were doing this stuff. I would take my pics to my boring desk job and scour them for any detail I wanted to see more of. I made a list based on these pics and checked them off as we got them. The list, which I still have, was really long and it seemed we would never finish it but we wanted every detail documented at all cost.

It's REALLY stupid to jump out of your ride vehicle on a Disney ride and we knew that. I suffered a fractured bone in my foot and Chief cut his head wide open once or twice. This was also pre 9/11 when things were very different.

Attractions close and that's the natural order of things. Ask Mike at Widen Your World. He knows. Somehow Horizons had such an impact on Chief and I as kids, and the time was right, that we had to do what we did at any risk.

Don't try this......EVER
