Traditions

My dad says his dad

took him to Disneyland

in the 1950s. But

when they got there,

they discovered that

Disneyland was still

just orange groves.

So they had to turn back.

Then, twenty years on,

my dad took me to

Disneyland. And again—

just orange groves.

So we turned back.

Now, though,

all these years later,

I’m beginning to think

my family may not

have the correct address

.

Keep circulating the URL

  7. Back in 1854, for his 17th birthday, Grover Cleveland’s dad took him to Disneyland. Grover was inspired by the impressive figures in the Hall of Presidents. “Hey, pops, orange ya gonna help me become president one o’ these days..?”

  15. Your ancestors should have invested in those orange groves back in the day. I did not get to Disneyland until I was 40 years old and by then the lines for an orangeade stretched all the way to San Francisco.
