On this World Kindness Day, I’m reminded of the simple magic that kindness brings to our lives. Here’s a moment from one of my shows, where laughter and amazement filled the air, connecting everyone in the crowd.

As a magician, I get to see how even the smallest acts—a smile, a cheer, a shared moment of wonder—can create joy and unity. Let’s all try to share a little kindness today and watch as it makes the world a brighter place.

🇺🇸 This Veterans Day, I’m proud to reflect on my time serving in the U.S. Army in Germany from 1972 to 1974. During those years, I joined a unique group called the 7th Corps Roadshow.

We traveled across Germany, performing a show that encouraged fellow soldiers to pursue education and stay motivated. It was a time when morale was low, as the Vietnam War was winding down. Our general, inspired by a Broadway musical, wanted us to bring that energy and optimism to the troops.

The experience of performing and lifting spirits helped shape who I am today, and I carry that same passion into every magic show and real estate interaction I have now. It’s all about connecting, inspiring, and reminding people of the joy and possibility in every moment.

Thank you to all veterans who have served and continue to serve. Your dedication is an inspiration to us all. 🇺🇸

✨ Magic has the power to inspire, connect, and uplift people of all ages! ✨

Had an incredible time performing at the Encinitas Library. Watching the wonder in the eyes of children (and adults!) reminds me just how powerful magic can be. It’s more than just tricks—it’s a way to spark creativity, encourage imagination, and bring a sense of wonder into our everyday lives.

Magic gives children confidence, fosters problem-solving, and, most importantly, lets them believe in the impossible. For adults, it’s a reminder to embrace curiosity and enjoy moments of pure joy.

Thanks to everyone who came out to experience the show! 🎩🔮

🎉🌳 Why Parks Are Perfect for Kids’ Birthday Parties! 🌳🎉

Planning a birthday party for your child? Here’s why parks in San Diego make the best venues:

1. Endless Space for Fun
Parks provide a natural, open environment where kids can run, play, and explore without boundaries. With plenty of room for games, activities, and picnics, they’re ideal for entertaining a large group of children.

2. Built-In Entertainment
Many parks come with built-in amenities like playgrounds, splash pads, and sports fields, reducing the need for additional rentals and setup. Kids can swing, slide, and climb to their hearts’ content!

3. Beautiful Scenery
Whether it’s the scenic beauty of parks in Carlsbad, the breathtaking views at Kate Sessions Park, or the lush gardens of Balboa Park, you’ll have stunning scenery for photos and memories.

4. Cost-Effective
Hosting a party at a park can be budget-friendly. With minimal rental fees and the ability to bring your own food and decorations, you can create a fantastic party without breaking the bank.

5. Perfect for All Ages
Parks cater to a wide range of activities suitable for different age groups. Younger kids enjoy the playgrounds and open space, while older children can engage in organized sports or scavenger hunts.

As a magician, I love performing at park parties! There’s something magical about entertaining both kids and parents with my tricks, surrounded by nature and laughter. Whether it’s making balloon animals or performing captivating magic tricks, I always have a blast bringing a bit of magic to these special celebrations.

Make your child’s birthday unforgettable with a party in one of San Diego’s beautiful parks! 🎂✨
