I think I watched all the episodes of The Flintstone’s when I was a kid. It was cool seeing humans and dinosaurs in hilarious adventures. I was surprised to see Fred’s Diner on the way to the Grand Canyon.

Winter Wonderland – Scottsdale
It was Christmas Eve in Scottsdale and we were looking to celebrate the season. A light show sounded good this cold winter night. Music was playing. Bright lights lit up this one block.

All except for one. I knew what was in the round metal container. Every Christmas my mom would buy Danish butter cookies. I […]
