Yeah, spidra, they go fast. If you reserve online for the afternoon entrance it's better. But they still go fast.
I wanna hurt you, but I can't resist the sinister attraction of your cold and muscular body!

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I just remembered I get to go as part of CA Rare Fruit Growers' Festival of Fruit so I am less bummed now.

free tickets to the Huntington Garden
I remember quite fondly the month I spent at the Huntington as part of the process of digitzing their card catalog. Hour lunch breaks every day that involved walking through the rose garden to the lunch tables, talking to the retired USO dancer who always wore purple and told tales of WWII and her research into women's history, and most especially the day when my machine broke down and the tech wouldn't be there till the next day, so I had the whole day free to wander the galleries. I found myself in the Medieval/Renaissance wing, discussing the iconography of the various icons with one of the bored guards, then explaining the techniques of the weavings of the tapestry (yay, SCA experience). I turned around to find a school group listening to my "lecture". And taking notes. Apparently the temp "Huntington Staff" badge leant me street cred.
