California Blog #11: 7-Eleven

 As I'm still working on my next future life in northern California, I'd like to take my time to talk to you about my daily trips to 7-Eleven in my spare free time.



Whenever I come in to a 7-Eleven, I get myself a Slurpee of any kind that I like. Whether it's wild cherry, blue raspberry, pina colada, or Coca-Cola flavored, I'm always down with that.

One time, my family and I were visiting 7-Eleven to get myself a Slurpee during vacation in California, and I tried a wild cherry Slurpee. And I gotta tell you, I almost got myself a brain freeze when I sipped too fast. We were in the car on the way.

Visiting 7-Eleven reminds of the time I was in Kansas City with my dad while we were moving, and it was great. I wanted to pick out something besides a Slurpee, but it was all I can get here for now.

I wonder if I could go there more often.

It was also that other time I went there with Aunt Leta and Uncle Mark along with my dad, and my cousins Ryan and Shanann. For me, I got myself a Pepsi, and a box of Nerds while I was looking around the store. That was the time we got to see Uncle Tim's band perform at his place. His band was titled "The Sweet Life". And I still got this album with me in my home.

When I come visit 7-Eleven after when I'm done with my part-time job at work, or when I'm with my aunt and uncle, my cousins, or my family, or maybe for special occasions and whatnot, maybe I might get myself a pizza, or a chicken sandwich, or a couple of snacks to share. That way, we can enjoy a picnic at the beach, or at the park, or at the Klavers' house.

It was also the time in 2016 when we were about to move to South Carolina, I got myself a Slurpee at the 7-Eleven in Kansas City. And I know one thing for sure. I really just can't get enough of them.



So the next time I'm living in California again, I wanna take the time to go to 7-Eleven and get a Slurpee of any flavor. And maybe share one with my friends or maybe my relatives.

Lisa Walker likes Slurpees too because she likes to mix cherry with Coca-Cola flavor.

I also wonder if Aunt Leta can mix a Slurpee flavor from cotton candy to blue raspberry. What a thought, huh.

Oh Thank Heaven!

California Blog #22: Welcome to Lake Tahoe

Image
 Living in Northern California in the future can be a bit of a challenge. But when I think of living here once again, I've thought about one thing that my aunt Leta suggested. She and uncle Mark suggested visiting Lake Tahoe for the very first time. If you can look closely, you can see the beautiful lakeside. That's the south shore seen on the west. At Lake Tahoe, you can also see the view of the shore from California from here. If you liked my blog about camping in California, then get this. There's also hiking here in Lake Tahoe! And that part of Lake Tahoe is Fallen Leaf Lake. How's that for another scenery. Now if you look closely at this map, Lake Tahoe is located in both California and Nevada. As you look closely at these pictures taken from space, you can see the clear blue water in this lake. According to Wikipedia,  Lake Tahoe has a dry-summer continental climate, including  warm, dry summers and chilly winters with regular snowfall. It's the  youngest of s...

California Blog #08: A Visit to Axtell Expressions

Image
  Ever since the day I got my first Axtell puppet in Lawrence KS, it has always been my dream to entertain children, and start my puppet's own show on YouTube. So I would like to take my time to talk about Axtell Expressions. It all started in the month of February 2013 when I got my bee puppet delivered to my door. It was a best day of my life. Since I named him Buzzy, I got the chance to show my puppet to everyone in Lawrence. The school that I went to [Free State High School], Cordley Elementary [including Lois Orth-Lopes], and of course all of my friends in this town I lived in. They are so thrilled that they saw it. He was friendly, kind, and more expressive to people. And for example, this is what my puppet and I look like in that picture. Now in the future when I come back to live in California again, I wanna plan a visit to Axtell Expressions in Ventura where it's between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara. I wanna get the chance to meet Steve Axtell and shake hands with him...
