“Safari” Goofy and us at dinner in Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom.

You look as youthful as ever! It is hard to believe that you are a young 85 years old. Making your first appearance on this day in Mickey’s Revue in 1923; and you have been delighting audiences ever since.

Without repeating a lot of information about this lovable, unflappable, always optimistic, anthropomorphic dog, we mostly want to say “Happy Birthday!”

Limited Edition Pins released for Goofy’s 85th birthday. Contains a spinner that depicts Goofy then and now.

If you would like to read our original post from 2 years ago, you can find it here. We have also included a link to Goofy’s facebook page if you would like to follow his story.

Here it is April 9th, one “y-ear” since our blog post went live. We wish we could say that all of our social sites were operational and we had thousands of readers and followers. Unfortunately, life gets in the way of getting much of this done – but never fear, we will accomplish all this and will let you know as soon as it is finished.

Walt Disney World Monorail During the Flower & Garden Festival

Life goes on and we have had many changes over the past year. Melvin has officially retired, we sold the house and almost Continue Reading →

Busy Summer & A New Princess

First, we would like to apologize to our reader (whoever you are) for the lack of posts this summer. It has been a while since our last message, but these couple of months have found us unusually busy and events have taken our time away from visiting anything Disney and writing about our experiences.

Since Melvin is very soon facing mandatory retirement, we have been repairing, cleaning and polishing the house to put it up for sale and we finally turned it over to a realtor on July 14th. We have had an amazing number of people look at our place; and all have said they really liked it. We have had a couple of offers, but there were things that made them questionable and so far they haven’t gone through to begin escrow.

In between all this, we have been Continue Reading →

To those who have come to our new website, we say “Welcome.” We are brand new to blogging, but we are “old” Disney fans. Since we have raised our girls and now find ourselves as empty nesters, we are rediscovering all things Disney in a new way. And with that, we have started this blog site to share our experiences with you, and to hear from you about finding that “Disney Magic.”

The first few posts will be going over some of our past Continue Reading →
