Yoohooo... big summer blowout!!
Believe it or not.... I had to Google that.
I totally forgot that part.
But sadly doesn't have anything to do with the material, so I stuck with boring old "Keep Up With Me!" I hope you enjoy it....
With hardcore touring behind me, today was the day to

Keep up! 'Cause I'm slowing down!
While I wouldn’t be riding any attractions on my solo day
That's a bit of a stop for me.
You're in a park.... and you don't go on even
one ride!
I think I might feel like I have to at
least do one.
Then again... with camera in hand... maybe not?
a day of photography all to my enthusiastic little old self.
Yeah.... there you go.
Old being the operative word.
If you're old, you're saying I'm decrepit and/or ancient.
Me can go pretty darned fast should me want to. Today me didn't.
Me understands.
(Today's not so hard to keep up now, is it..?)
I have no idea, I lost you at that last left turn.
Hmmm, where to begin… How did Maria put this? Let's start at the very beginning; a very good place to start.
Dough, means cash, for all of us
Ray! For musicals like this!
Me, a star, so big that by...
Far. It couldn't really miss!
So insipid is the plot.
La dee dah although we know,
Tedious it is a lot!
It will bring us all much dough, dough, dough, dough...
(As sung by Maria in Mad Magazine, circa 1970.
And yes... I still remember it verbatim without looking it up, if you could even find it.)
Maybe I’m different than the rest of humanity, but I would assert that every adventure in Disney should begin on Main Street.
You may be in the majority, but I know many who like to start it at DTD... or other parks.
I'm going to simply let the lens do the talking. No, not really being a lazy Trip Report Writer, I just don't have a lot to add with my usual inane verbosity.
Hardly inane... but sometimes, a photo is all you need.
I wasn't going commando (today),
Darn!! And you with a camera ready and everything!
Almost unbelievable.
didn't spill coffee down the front of me,
Completely unbelievable.
or get flipped off just because.
Um... what?
close your eyes, and imagine that buttery scent of artery-clogging Disney popcorn (go ahead, I'll wait).
mmmmmm..... Disney popcorn.......
Not even close. Hang on... mmmmmmmmmm...
I said no! Wait!
Geez! This "keeping up" stuff is hard!
Meantime.... how many CAN you find in this chapter??
I admittedly didn't look too hard... but, four.
I first came across "Tilly". Before you look at the picture, do you know whom (or actually what) I'm referencing?
Nope! But I do now!
At least she appears that way, but I dunno, her hands seem... odd.
For all of you trivia geeks, I did a little research on Tilly (and the Main Street Theater) and came across this little hidden gem. If you know me at all, I'm a sucker for those hidden gems and get a bit on the giddy side when I find something new.

I do know you like doing that.
Just down the street, I came across yet another character that graces Walt's walk to the Weenie... (If you don't understand that, please reference this:

Never heard that before! Interesting!
For a mere $.25, Esmeralda will tell you your fortune; something probably frowned upon by Tilly's Marceline Methodist Mindset crowd of 1910.
I also looked for other "Ladies of Main Street"
Oh, sure. If
I was to do that, I'd get arrested and sent to "John" school.
and little girls are chased by witches who order her huntsman to carve out her heart. I still have to wonder about that storyline.
A much less PC time. I wonder if that would've been able to be released now?
With the same rating...
At least there is a Happy Place where everyone seems to get along.
Typo! "
Unhappy place".
You're welcome.
If anyone can give me a tutorial on how to get video off of my iPhone and onto the DIS, I will buy you lunch should we ever meet up. No, really. I will.
Sorry. Never tried.
Now, be truthful, has anyone else noticed the symbols on this clock? Took me a fair while to figure it out.... but.... well?? You tell me.
Never noticed.... never seen the clock... or at least really looked. Sheesh! I've only been once!
But I recognized what it was. Even saw my sign.
Meanwhile, Keep Up With Me.
Trust me, it's not too terribly difficult these days. At least on the DIS.
Dang it! Where'd you go??? Lost you again.
