I just got back from Storyland in NH

It's behind me now.
I can move on and rebuild my life - though I have been changed somehow.

Just one kid, Ethan.
He turned five last month...he had a good time.
They've got it down as far as making it entertaining for the age group....

Continue On

If you're going to Story Land, you might as well bite the bullet and continue on a way and drive up Mt Washington.

Give the kids a real thrill for the day.

Is this the same park that used to be just outside of Hyannis on 132, back in the 60s?

I recently found out that Storyland does not sell beer. Even DISNEY WORLD Sells beer!!!!!



I too am hoping the boy never hears of this place as well. But alas I have already accepted the fact that I will be going....



I had a box of animal crackers the other day. The box said 'do not eat if seal is broken.' I opened the box, the lion was OK, the elephant was OK, sure enough, the darn seal was broken.

Beware of six gun city...

My kids hated it!...

We felt as though we were "held up" for admission and then were let in on the scam when we went through the gates...

Two words:

RIP OFF....
