I not only like them; heck, I like them a lot.<br />Gems in the Treasure Box know as the 'Golden Age' of the Park. Tasty, beauty-mus and persistently haunting in there absence. Never will we be able to go back to this time. Not even Master Showman of the World could bring us back to the simple joy provided in this kingdom at that time. <br /><br />Sorry, I will hush now.Thuferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692445357659425688noreply@blogger.com
