""Sayer"" a third grader,almost forth

Last week I signed a family into the park. One of their kids,"Sayer" told me as we were walking to the main entrance that this was his first time to Disneyland. He also told me that he could not wait to return to school,3rd grade.I asked him why.His reply was that "at school all his friends have been to Disneyland and that they would talk about all their farvoite rides(attractions). He had nothing to say. Not this time however! He wanted to see all the best attractions and he had a list,Tower of Terror, The Haunted Mansion, Big Thunder Railroad and so on. When he returns to school I know he will be surrounded by all of his friends, telling them what his favorite attractions are.
Talking to this wonderful young fellow only brings to mind just how successful Walt was in designing the park. Disneyland was designed both children and their parents as a place for all to play and forget that which is outside the burm (the raised durt hill which surrounds the park).
Being able to share the park with family and friends means a tremendous amount to me, I'm grateful for the opportunity to help others experience Walt's genius.

My first assignment as Disneyland, oh those many years ago!

I was so fortunate to have been assigned to work aboard the Mark Twain Riverboat when I first began working at the park in 1981. The Mark Twain was actually a choice attraction normally given to cast members with seniority, that being said, I was very fortunate!
I loved the river, going to work everyday was a wonderful experience and meeting guests was terrific!

Another felon apprehended by Disney Security!

I love visiting old friends in the park! Ernie is terrific, wow, we've been friends for years.

Dr. Lee aboard the Lilly Belle!

After working at the park for approx. 28 years, this was Dr. Lee's first ride aboard the Lilly Belle, Disneyland's presidential train car.
With the good 'Doc' is one of Disneyland's top tour guides, Mark!
Thank you Mark for hosting our ride!
As you can see, Dr. Lee still has some pretty terrific connections!
ALL ABOARD!


Dr. Lee with dear friends, Grace and Heidi!

Hey, what about my face?

My mom told me I had a face that could haunt a house, but I told her 'No, it could haunt a mansion!'

Hey! I used to work here! Let me in! Honest!

Dr. Lee attempts entry into Club 33! His old stomping ground for over 25 years! Just kidding! I still love the place and truly miss the magic.

Dr. Lee! Always being followed by security!

This is my friend Art! Wonderful fellow. He exemplifies all that Disney has come to stand for. The park is lucky to have this terrific fellow!

Dr. Lee at Plaza Inn!

Dr. Lee and his favorite Cobb Salad, served fresh daily at The Plaza Inn! Wow! Love it!

Is this Dr. Lee or Prince Charles?

When the waiter asked Dr. Lee how he liked his rolls, he meant either cinnamon or jelly! Dr. Lee, of course, said he wanted a classic 76 Silver Shadow, Ivory IV in color! I'm glad he didn't order a chocolate mousse!

Dr Lee, just dyin' to get back to Disneyland!

Dr. Lee puts the 'Fun' in Funeral!

Dr Lee and Daughter!

Here is a wonderful photo of my daughter and I enjoying dinner with friends at Plaza Inn! After working at Disneyland for all those years, I still love the park and I've never grown tired of visiting.
Walt hired the right people for the right job, that was his greatest talent. Disneyland is truly the work of a master.

Dr. Lee at his post!

Who is this strange man behind the bar? You guessed right, its Dr. Lee! This photo was taken in September of 2006. The club has really changed since then and I must admit, I miss the place.



I wish I had kept count of just how many drinks I made at the club. Except for Walt's apartment on Main Street, I doubt any place within the park could boast to have hosted so many influential people and Disney legends.
