More Cars…

Yesterday my friend John picked me up some brand new Cars Movie toys. I have been collecting the die cast cars from the movie. And with such a huge cast of characters from th movie there will be a ton of cars to come out up till the Cars 2 movie. And I am sure that it will be made, a new Cars movie within the next 5 years. Anyway Wal-Mart has eight brand new first look cars that are coming out. John Picked me up Catcus Lightning McQueen, Al Olft the Lightyear blimp, T.J. the hummer from the end of the movie and Ghost Light Ramone from the Ghost light short.

New Cars

There are 4 more that are not out yet but I will eventually get them, they include the Piston cup Pace Car, Kori Turbowitz the reporter, There will also be a Bob Cutlass figure. So many more should be made including a two pack of the Miata twins and the two minivans who find their way into Radiator springs. I can’t wait for some more of these and I am looking for a nice display case to hand on a wall till these can be played with.

Win a Free Raleigh, NC Getaway!

As you know, I love contests and sweepstakes and I LOVE TO WIN! Seriously, I am surrounded by some winnings that I have been lucky enough to receive. My Zune, My iPod and many other items. So why not win a trip somewhere.

How about a FREE Raleigh Getaway. That would be great because Raleigh, NC has so much to do. I have only been to Charlotte, NC and I would like to visit some other cities in NC. I loved Charlotte very much and if Raleigh is anything as special as Charlotte was I know I will have a great time there.

Raleigh offers city life, Carolina Style and the Carolinas have wonderful style, there is so much to do in this hidden treasure of a vacation spot. There are many attractions, concerts and sporting events in Raleigh. I would like to see NC Theatre’s production of Man of La Mancha if I won the trip. I loved reading Don Quixote in High school and I hear that this is a fantastic play. I think that if Allison and I would like to go on a Fall Getaway in Raleigh, NC.

On thing that makes my job so great is that I get to chance to travel all over the country. I love to explore, take photographs and learn more about places. I see that Raleigh is working towards becoming a vacation spot for people who enjoy the excitement of a slower pace. And I mean it, a slower pace can be exciting. Learning from museums, seeing plays and just enjoying the southern hospitality of the people and their food is fantastic! I would certainly make great use out of my time with a trip to Raleigh, NC! And I registered to win just moments ago.

If you register to win this is what you will get as a prize.

A pretty nice package to say the least. I would probably want to stay a few nights, but getting at least one free night is great. I wish I was able to be there right now, because the Raleigh 3rd Annual Bike Fest is happening this weekend. That would be a great PhotoWalking activity for me.
