Tell all your friends in Payson!!!

Most of you who read this blog already know and love Lori. But I know there are some of you who don't. Suffice it to say, she is one of my nearest and dearest friends and the example of everything I want to be. If you don't know her, I would encourage you to spend a few hours reading her blog (trust me, once you start reading you'll be hooked and want a few hours to get to know her and her story).

In any case, I am telling you all about her because she is starting a preschool in Payson and needs help spreading the word. Now, I know that at least a handful of you have got to know someone who lives in Payson. Even if that person you know doesn't have preschool-aged children, chances are someone they know does. And I'm telling you, this is the type of thing you want to share with people you know and love. It is going to be a darling preschool. But beyond that, Lori is an amazing teacher (as evidenced by her two, happy, bright children). This is a great opportunity for kids to start their school years.

So if you would please, just send your friends a quick link to her preschool website with the message of "Spreading the word." It's that simple. I know that's a lot to ask, especially for those of you who've never met her. But I promise that you will want everyone you know to know her once you learn more about her. Thanks friends!

Club 33

My time is almost up for my 30 by 30 list and I've already had to modify some of my goals. I'm still working on some and have stories regarding some others (to be told eventually), but haven't had any success (or near success) with my going to Club 33 goal.

During my time in trying to accomplish this goal I know at least a couple of people I know who have been able to go to Club 33. I've tried calling hotel concierges to try to get me in (without any success) and I've even considered paying $6,000 for a partial membership (without the money to do so). Finally, I even considered contacting Nicholas Cage (how exactly?) because someone told me that a waitress told my friend that Nicolas Cage had a membership. I then decided I didn't want to have a restraining order put out on me.

Anyway, I guess this is another call to help. Does anyone know of anyone who can get me into club 33 for sure and is willing to do most of the legwork to make sure it's legitimate and to pretty much get me in? I only have the next couple of weekends left (one really I suppose as I'm suppose to be going camping in two weekends, but I am willing to sacrifice that to go to Club 33.) Weekdays will work as well (with some advanced notice to get time off work). Pretty much any day before July 20th (weekday or weekend) is fine with me. So if anyone can get me and Ryan in to club 33 that would be perfect! I guess if someone can help and get me and Ryan into Club 33 before that time I'm willing to pay for a park hopper for them to come as well (you'll have to provide your own way to the park though I think).

Please help!
