Hi Mleigh - it is so helpful to read about your processing. Your clarity, patience and evaluation are really admirable. You really are a strong gal.

Regarding SoCal, don't mean to push you even further south, but Aquatica has great water slides if you catch warm weather that week. It's a fun place! If you like smaller amusement parks Belmont Park is a nice one without crazy rollercoasters. It's practically across the street from SeaWorld.
