MY SPRING BREAK ...AND I DO HAVE ONE

I'm having the time of my life here in Orlando. It's great to be able to go on spring break without having to go through all that pesky time-consuming trouble of actually going to college. Although I did take out a student loan to pay for this trip.
Universal Orlando Resort is a really fun place. There's nothing more relaxing and peaceful than walking around and hearing thousands of people screaming at the top of their lungs. I found out that kids get to ride, eat and stay for free! I gotta get me a kid. Or doctor up my driver's license. You can tell that the rides here are really scary because when you get on them, you have to stow all your belongings. Then they strap you in and pull a bar down over your head. I haven't had that kind of security around me since I was in prison. The weirdest thing is they tell you that if you are wearing flip-flops, you have to take them off and sit on 'em. Because you know how valuable flip flops are. In San Diego, they use them as currency.
I went on the greatest ride this morning. You walk into a small room and giant doors close behind you, so you're trapped. Then all these buttons light up and it just drops to the ground! It was thrilling! I think they call it the "El a va-tour." If you haven't been on it, I totally recommend it!

Ellen,
I'm currently home being treated for Cancer and for the past 2 months I've watched you every day. I can't tell you how much you do for me with your sunshine and light...you even outshine Orlando...I'm loving watching you while your out there. It's cold and rainy here in Arlington, VA but you always warm me up. When I get better and I will...My Care Taker Clayton and I will be out to see you. If you have time I've set up a blog to keep all my friends and family informed of how I'm beating this illness... scottsdtd.blogspot.com is the link...enjoy Orlando!
Love, Peace and Light,
Scott Olson
