Stonepath ScreenshotYou know how you go on vacation for a while and then you come back and things are never quite like you expected them to be?

Today (kind of like yesterday) I feel like I'm in someone else's life. It's not just a matter of catching up with email and what was going on while I was away. It's like I'm reading this stuff and it's all Greek. I wonder if I'll ever be able to understand it as well as did the person who I was before vacation. I wonder if I'll even care to.

I expected there to be some transition, but this is a bit extreme. Maybe I just need to get back into the blogging swing of things or write a plugin or two. Maybe doing something to progress ODT will help.
StonePath coding has just been going frustratingly slow. I really need it, though.

Bush Gardens

I know that Busch Gardens has some more interesting ides, but in my preparation to visit here today, I wonder what sort of atmosphere the park promotes.

For example, Disney World has a kind of “Small World” atmosphere, where everyone seems welcome and is cheery in the style of the Mousketees.  Some of the Universal parks, like King’s Dominion, have a Star Trek thing going on.

I imagine that all Busch theme parks have either one of two ambiences.
