With inspiration from my dear sister-in-law, Rachel, I embark on this adventure - capturing an image every day for a year both to have for myself and to share with you. My hope is that through this effort, I will "keep peace in the noisy confusion of life" - taking time to notice the small things, celebrate the big things, and more fully appreciate the gift of each new day. Of course, I had every intention of beginning this on January 1st - but when that day came and went without a blog, Rachel assured me that this project can begin on any day. After a slow start, I really hope I can pull it off - and that you'll enjoy it!

Day 99 - April 17: Universal Studios

Today we visited Universal Studios, which is both a Disney-type amusement park as well as the home to Universal's movie and television studios.  We toured the studios and back lots, watched an amazing "Waterworld" special effects show, and rode some terrific rides, including The Simpsons and King Kong 360 3D.  My favorite, however, was the Animal Actors Show, where we met some furry stars, including the yellow lab who played Marley in "Marley and Me", Fanta, starring in an upcoming "Air Buddies" movie, and this fellow, who can be seen in "Hotel for Dogs" as well as many other movies.  While the other animals put on a terrific show with their trainers, this guy was content to just sit and pose for photos with the star struck visitors.
