My twenty five year old son and his girlfriend came in from Chicago for the weekend. We went to Cedar Point on Saturday. It was a great day. It was cool out with some rain clouds so I think it scared some people away.
The lines for the rides were short. They didn't wait longer than an hour. Sometimes at Cedar Pointe people have waited up to 2 and a half hours to get on a ride. So it was great. Some of the rides they were able to get right on.
My wife Marianne and I didn't ride many of the super duper roller coasters. I get a little motion sickness from riding sometimes so I ride one and then take a break. So I leave the heart stoppers off the list. Marianne doesn't like the jerky ones so those get crossed off the list.
We were happy to eat the famous Cedar Pointe french fries. We hadn't been to Cedar Point in about ten years so a lot of things have changed. Some of the old rides are gone and new ones replaced them. Change.
It was a great day at the amusement park. It's good to relax away from the real estate world. (though I did take a few phone calls). Plus we go a sneak peak at the lighting for the upcoming Hallow Weekends at Cedar Point. It was so cool at night. It was spectacular site. So if you are llooking for something to do in October then Cedar Point might be a good time for the family.

I am walking in the Tampa 3 day cancer walk in October. Support cancer research by going to www.the3day.org/goto/marianneravary and donate as much as you can. My wife got to live 20 years after finding out she had breast cancer due to advances in cancer treatment. Be part of the team and help me. I would like to be able to give some other "special lady" (like my wife Marianne) more days on this earth. If we can give another lady another night to enjoy with friends, an extra week to laugh & hug her kids, an extra month to love her spouse, or an extra year then our money will be going to a good cause. The grants from the Susan G Komen 3 day walk have been instrumental in cancer research. Help me give more time to somebody else please donate to the 3day walk. Thanks

Hit Cedar Point with kids when they went to Akron to race in the All American Soap Box Derby. Neat place..just like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at Cleveland.
