Okay here is the happy sappy video you were expecting. Before you watch it you must know two facts
1.Since Micheal Jackson has passed away Morgan has become a fan of his music. She knows the chorus to Annie are you okay. I don't have any Jackson songs but I do have the remake of her favorite song so I played that even though it does not tie into the video at all
2.Katie's dad created a theme song for King Kone based on the King Tut song sung by Steve Martin. Basically just replace King Tut with King Kone and you have the song. Alright now you have the inside story. Enjoy

Story Land
To kick off the summer we packed up the wally wagon and drove up to the white mountains to check out story land. Now anyone who has talked to me or seen my facebook comments knows I was dreading the vacation. Who wants to be dragged up to a small amusement park in the middle of the woods geared towards small children then asked to shell out too much money for crap we don't need. To make matters worse Katie had me practically drive up to Canada and come back down, so the trip took forever. It was not scenic as planned as it rained the whole time. In the end it was not nearly as bad as I had feared. The threat of rain kept the crowds down so at least we were not sitting in lines for too long. The bed and breakfast we stayed at was nice. It only rained at the very end of our stay at Story Land so we were very fortunate.
On our way back we stoped at Clarks Trading Post but only checked out the gift shop. Did you know they want 17 bucks for an adult! That is crazy! The whole Clarks trading post 'adventure' is outdoors and it was threatening to rain so we decided to skip it. We then ended up in Merrimack were we got ice cream at the legendary King Kone stand and then checked out the Anheuser Busch Brewery. Sadly there are no Ompa Loopa's or a river of Bud Light. However, there were free samples at the end of the tour.
In keeping with my torture theme I have made a video based on a suggestion for the US department of defense to use as an alternative to water boarding - the threat of being forced into going to Story Land and outlet shopping is far more effective then the simulation of drowning any day. Gwen was very troubled when she watched the video for the first time so caution is advised.
