That changed a few years ago when we put in a pool. What changed in my thinking? Unlike the pool of my youth, this one was self-cleaning and self chlorinating.

Disneyland Updates: $1 Billion Revamping of Disney’s California Adventure

Friday, October 19th, 2007 Posted in All Things Disney | No Comments »

Many would argue that California Adventure, Disney's theme park adjacent to "the happiest place on Earth" is not Disneyland, however I beg to differ. True Disneyland and California Adventure are "separate" parks but when I am at Disneyland or rather The Disneyland Resort, I consider the Disneyland park itself, California Adventure and even Downtown Disney all part of the same experience. Therefore I have justified including a major update to the California Adventure theme park ...

There are some benefits to belonging to an HOA (Home Owner's Association) but often the benefits are overshadowed but the negative aspects of HOAs wielding too much control over homeowners. I live in Anthem, Arizona, one of the best planned master communities in the country and a wonderful place to live I might add, however with one of the strictest HOAs you will ever run across.
