Knott’s Berry Farm HANGTIME Roller Coaster Defies Gravity!
HangTime, the first and only dive coaster in California, is now open at Knott’s Berry Farm! HangTime towers 150 feet over the Boardwalk area showcasing a beyond vertical drop, gravity-defying inversions, and mid-air suspensions. This week I was invited to attend the Knott’s Berry Farm HangTime Preview Party on behalf of Belair Mommie because she was too chicken to go.

Why Manda Mosher’s ‘Cold Cold Love’ Warms Our Hearts
Manda Mosher is a trend setter when it comes to music and the empowering impact it can make. Manda is a singer, songwriter and one half of the Americana duo CALICO The Band. You’d think she came straight out of Nashville but Manda and the band’s roots are strictly Southern California. In fact, CALICO stands for “California Country” and the music is fresh, vibrant, and real. It’s no surprise that one of Manda’s songs was chosen for Magnolia Pictures ‘Please Stand By,’ a film starring Dakota Fanning, Toni Collette, Alice Eve and Patton Oswald. It’s rare to find a film like Please Stand By, a coming-of-age story about a creative…
