120th Tournament of Roses Parade

This is the Anaheim 2009 Float
 
 

Here is the artist rendering of the City of Anaheim 2009 Rose Parade float and a picture of the float before it has been decorated. This float was designed by Dave Pitman. Hope to see you at decoration days.

The LifeSource Water Systems float was designed by Michelle Lofthouse and built by Phoenix Decorating Co. Float at the Rosemont Pavillion, 700 Seco Street, Pasadena Click here for a map

During float decorating I take pictures of the floats in the Rosemont float barn. They are posted on the photos page of my site. Check them out.

Special Olympics
 
 
You can experience all this and more at Special Olympics
 
 

Special Olympics holds a special place in my heart. I started volunteering in 1983 and still love every minute of it.

Fun in the sun, fantastic athletes and friendships that last a lifetime.

If you want to join me in Bullpen 2 for an experience that is far from ordinary, drop me an email to join us.

  
   
 
Halloween
 
Friendly faces of fear over the years
 
 

Halloween is a special time of year for me. I started working Haunted Houses in 1984 at the Factory of Nightmares. That's where I met my good friend Rick who gave me my first experience as a cannibal.

I started doing my own make-up in 1985, ran the make-up for the Factory of Nightmares in 1986 and over the years I have developed my make-up skills to work on up to 30 actors in less than 2 hours.

I have run a 22,000 sf Haunted House and helped a number of friends with their houses, from construction, production, special effects and make-up.
