Sept 5 - 2-1/2 Hours for 2-1/2 Minutes: A Fair Trade Any Day

Well, the kid was on a canoe trip for the day, so we nipped up to the North Coast to visit a friend, grab some of the World's Best Spaghetti Sauce, and ride the Magnum a few times. Got to the park about 3:15pm. Parking lot was full but not maxed. We parked at the Gemini lot. Dragster was down apparently, so the line for the Magnum was into the pens. I waited ½ hour, which actually wasn't bad. Took just one ride, and didn't feel like waiting again, since my wife is a non-rider. The one ride I took was great, as usual, and it was wonderful to hear the clatter of the lift hill and be in the park after over a month!

Special to the Magnum Candy Man - Sorry I didn't get to see you and Randy at the Magnum entrance on Monday morning! That first ride of the day thing is a kind of a tradition I was getting to like. Hopefully we'll knock heads during Halloweekends or something. If not, we can shoot for Memorial Day 2006!

Actually, the date was the 4th! Sorry!

I was at Cedar Point on Sunday. I waited two hours for Millennium Force, an hour for Raptor, and 30 minutes for Magnum. It was extremely crowded, but I still had fun.

I finally got to see Snoopy's Summer Vacation. :)


October 13 - Finally!

Top Thrill Dragster - 15
Millennium Force - 15

I was surprised not to see ya! We were there all 3 days. On Sunday we missed first ride. We slept in and didn't enter park until 10:45am. Rode a few times until the crowd hit. We met up with some friends and ran around the park with them and their 3 yr old girl.
I should be there most of HalloWeekends. At least the Sundays.
