Epcot Center

Disney World - Yeah!

We went to Epcot first - the famous epcot gigantic golf ball!
The monorail was pretty cool too!
Who knew there was a waterfall under the golf ball?
The first ride we did was inside the giant golf ball. Jason's parents made a new friend!
This ride was cool - a spaceship simulator - zero gravity baby!
Epcot had a neat section with countries around the world. Apparently they grow grass on their roofs in Sweden!
Yes, not a great picture of me but check out China!
Nice towel! Trust Italy to have all the good statues.
Looks like a Christmas Card shot to me!
This dude was balancing on a stack of chairs with a giant wine bottle in France. He must have entirely too much free time on his hands.
Test Track was one of my favorites at Epcot - you got to be the dummies in the car during the perormance testing. Finally, something good from GM!
These were part of a series of awesome water fountains that did tricks - like shooting water across walkways in a series of jumps - watch out!

Crest Trail - September 2009

The Crest Trail
September 2009

Lead the way! We found this cool trail near Monjeau Tower - it was on the top of the mountains - coolest hike we have found in New Mexico!
Rest stop/bathroom break!
We left Holly's leash here on the rocks - good thing it was still their on the way back!


Cheese!
This was a very cool tree - how about a hug!
Heading back.

Monjeau Lookout Tower, NM

Monjeau Peak - New Mexico
September 2009

Yeah - picnic in the mountains!
We were swarmed by many little black bugs - clinging to clothes, hair, everything - they really liked Jason - he loved them too as you can tell!

This is the only stone lookout tower I have seen - it was built by the CCC. If I had to work in a tower - I would choose this one. Just like a mini - castle.
Helllloooooooo!
View from the top-o-the-tower.
Oh yeah, Holly got to go up since there were stairs instead of ladders. She played with the kids at the top.

Camping at Big Lake

Big Lake Campout

We went camping with Dale's family in Az. It was a fun but soggy evening!
Colin (I hope this is Colin) spent a lot of time rolling over logs. Good work!

Samantha was on the hunt for her favorite kind of moss.

The next morning, Dale and Heather made breakfast burritos. Holly wanted a piece of that action. Too bad we couldn't keep her out of the stream - it made for a very muddy dog!


Holly hoping for a burrito!

We ran into some more dogs on our hike - Holly and Dot were ready to party.

We found a cool spring that emptied into some hollow logs.

Holly got a washing in the hollow logs - good-bye mud!

Nice shades girlfriend!


Jason got Stoned!

Getting Stoned!

My kidney stone-never, ever, again!
So this is all it takes to feel like you are delivering an 11 pound baby. Delivery only took 7 days. Yes men we can say we feel your pain and then some to women. 7 days of labor pains, beat that!

Roswell UFO Festival 2009

Roswell UFO Festival 2009

Greetings Cox Family
Are you enjoying the super heroes and their green presentation? I know I felt privileged to have witnessed such a spectacle!
Here we have Holly's favorite - she loved to lick the Green Goblin at the parade. No thanks!
Iron Man had to show off and took out Captain America. I thought they were both good guys!
Nice inter-galactic ride!
Can't we just be friends? I promise I will not let my underwear show again!
(Click on picture to see costume mal-function)
This canine got to wear goggles, high tops, and a silver lame cape - lucky guy!
They are out there!
It ain't easy being green.
My mom wants to know where she can get a shirt like this.
Huh? Don't get it.
It all makes sense now!
Seriously, does the crystal really protect your thoughts from getting probed?
I think this hat is much better probe protection.
Before the parade.
Maddy anxiously anticipating the annual UFO festival parade.
Make sure your cameras are working - don't want to miss a thing!
My hero!
Holly's lick worthy hero!
I can see this photo showing up again on the Christmas card - very festive with the little green guy!
The Alien Chase 10K - if you look close you can see 6 miles worth of sweat.
