The Eat To The Beat concert series happens every year during the Epcot Food and Wine Festival. There aren’t many groups/bands that I want to go see.. however, Sugar Ray was there. And so was I. Loved every show that I saw! I saw them perform 7 years ago at another theme park and I must say, they were wonderful once again!

MyX Is Psycho – Howl O Scream
October 3, 2010 by Kelly
Honestly, I don’t have an “X”, but apparently Sylvie from MyX does.
I was invited to go to the Bleed-Up at Howl-O-Scream on October 1st. What a way to bring in October!
We were all lucky enough to get some food, drinks and pictures with Sylvie. Along with a concert. Ooooh and the most important part – there were giveaways. Three or four people won guitars. And one person won a trip into Alone, supposedly the best haunted house of all time! More on that later…
Around 9, everyone headed out to conquer the scare zones and houses. I took in all the scare zones like a big girl, but I am not a fan of doing haunted houses, so I opted out and was the official bag holder for Jeff, Jacobus, Jen and Jay. Holy crap that’s a lot of J names!
We set out to find drinks (so I would maybe do a house or two) and instead we made a stop at one or two houses for the 4Js to do. Thankfully (for me) rides were open, so we did Sheikra!!
After that, we each grabbed a drink and went to grab our reservation. Reservation for what you ask?
ALONE!
The person that won the chance to do Alone… ME! Probably the ONE person that wouldn’t actually do it. I never expect to win anything, especially since Sylvie was taking out tickets and then ripping them up.
She said Kelly… then couldn’t read my last name. Said Walky (because apparently “I write bad”) and then the person on stage with her read that it said Walker. Yay me?! The ticket was up to 4 people (by the way, this house is an extra cost for anyone not able to win a ticket. It costs $25 in advance online or $35 day off. You can either do the house alone <hence the name> or with a group of up to 4) So who were the four people that did it? Well, I wasn’t included.
Jeff, Jacobus, Jen and Jay!
After they checked in, they waited… and waited… and waited.. They only let one person/group in at a time. From what I was told by the 4Js is that it’s “personalized” of sorts. You don’t get herded through unlike the other houses and it’s a story. If I wasn’t such a chicken it sounded cool.
And if you don’t believe me, by 10:30 all of the spots for the house were sold out for the night!
We didn’t get to see either of the other shows, but while they were in one of the houses I caught a peek at Fiends. Seemed funny and something I would like. Singing.. dancing.. ok I’m in.
I saw a lot of this…
And looked at this a lot to figure out where to go next.
We all had an awesome time. Including me, even not doing any of the houses was a lot of fun. The rides were open. The lines were short and our Front of the Lines passes didn’t get used too much because there were hardly any lines!
A very bloody thank you to Busch Gardens, John, and Melissa!
There are a lot more pictures on my flickr page – flickr.com/photos/peglegpug

Pool, Bike and Walks
September 6, 2010 by Kelly
Labor Day weekend. Oh how I’ve missed you.
I took some pictures. Most in the pool and on the way to St. Augustine. I rode on the back of the motorcycle with my dad, down A1A from Palm Coast to St. Augustine.
(It was a “camera free” weekend, which means I just didn’t use the DSLR – oops)
Lots of these are with my new underwater camera case. And pushing my mom underwater *don’t worry, it’s what we do*

This past Saturday was Cure For The Run 2010. From what I’ve heard over $4,000 has been raised for New Hope For Kids.
I’m so glad that I was able to take part of this awesome event.

Cure For The Run 2010
August 16, 2010 by Kelly
Last year at this time, the SomaCow network was in full force of planning and getting ready for the very first Cure For The Run.
This year is no different.
On Saturday August 21st (yes THIS coming Saturday!), SomaCow Network podcasts and lots of supporters of New Hope For Kids will be getting together in downtown Orlando at WiTiki Lounge at Wall Street Plaza.
All of those supporters will be running a 0.05K. Yes, really. That is true. You read that right.
New Hope For Kids helps families and children deal with grief and loss. They also grant wishes for children with life threatening diseases.
You can help them out by donating whatever amount you can through PayPal. Please let me know if you’d like to make other arrangements for donations as we can get something worked out.
Thank you in advance! And if you’re in the Orlando area, please stop by Wall Street Plaza and join us. And maybe you can beat ELROSS.
Check out the below video to see exactly how far a 0.05K is.
