Why RollerCoasters?

[MetallicaMom]

I can't tell you but I do know I have a need for speed sometimes.  I can be just as mellow as the next gal.  I remember the first amusement park experience I had.  I think it was called Old Chicago, back in Illinois.  Anyway, I got lost, I must have been about 5, and instead of looking for help, I found the tallest ride and went on it so I could search for my family.  hehe

When I was dating my DH, we must have been 16 years old, we went camping and hitched a ride from Huntsville to Astroworld( about a 90 minute drive).  We were there from opening till closing!  We then found the bus and had them drop us off at the interstate so we could walk 2 miles to our campsite.  Those were the days!  We were also there on the very last day of operation for Astroworld, In Houston, Tx.  It was very sad to see it close, but we keep the spirit of having fun alive with our children.  There isn't a year that goes by that we haven't gone to an amusement park.  Even when I was PG, I was determined to at least watch everyone else have fun!!!

Will I ever get tired of my fascination with Amusement Parks?  NO WAY!  I am already planning our next trip to Universal and Disney!  I love October in Orlando!!!!

                                                                 

 

PS  My brother told me that I was missing something from my Roller Coaster Page!!!  Can you imagine what it could be?  Weeeeeell, he sent me a picture of it but I decided to spare you!!!!  Some people just can't handle coasters!!!!!  HAHAHA  The picture had a guy tossing his cookies!!!

My oldest daughter cried when she was 8 cuz she wasn't tall enough to ride!!! My youngest is getting there..she rode the Patriot at our amusement park for the first time last year! Its a pretty cool rollercoaster! (I'm talking about Worlds of Fun..I can see it from my house!)
