Our own Sam Towler got a nice write-up and interview in the OC Register. Congratulations, Sam!

Sam's Nature's Wonderland model

BTW, it's great to finally be able to put a face with the name!

Cool! Nice to see that model making runs in your family. And I love the WED Imagineering sweatshirt, too!

Sam, Great pictorial of your Nature's Wonderland RR! My only beef with it is that I think the prototype shots should have been shown first, if for no other reason than it makes your model look even better. 8)

Congrats Sam. We all have been saying for years you should get a job in imagineering and your dad already works there. I guess you have your connection in and if I see you in the park next time there I will try and give you a little work by spreading some popcorn around for you to sweep. :twisted:

Fantastic, Sam!! :D I agree with Steve D. Good to put a face with the name! I loved that attraction, one of my all time favorites. Super modeling too. I'll look for you in July!

You understand, of course, that since you have publically stated your want to be in WDI you will be transferred to Disneyland Hong Kong and work the pop corn machine on main street. That is how I have come to understand Central Casting's thinking anyway. :lol:
