Saturday 9-13-08 Cedar Point

Well Saturday morning the rain caught up to us, but thank goodness Tom had these matching rain suits to keep us dry.
Don't they look so cute!
After lunch it stopped raining and we had a great time without having to wear our matching suits. This is a shot from the ride call "Power Tower", you can either be thrust up or ride up slowly and free fall down. Here Shelli and I are waiting for our seat to release for our free fall. Michelle and Tom are on the same ride with us.
Because this is the time of the year they call Halloweekend, the park is set up with these fright zones and when it gets dark out all these people dressed up in scary costumes pop out from behind things or from the fog (they use smoke machines) and try and scare you. Shelli was cutting the circulation from my arm from holding on so tight.
This was a cool and smooth ride called "Sky Hawk". It's a huge swing that goes up like a 100 feet or so. When you swing down from that height you really feel it your stomach. It was a fun weekend with Tom and Michelle and we lucked out with the rain because back home only 3 hrs away it rained non-stop the entire weekend.

How fun. I wish I could go for Halloween to Cedar Point. Is it less crowded in the Fall? I think Michelle and Shelli look Beautiful in yellow!

Im still so happy that we had those yellow suits. We were dry while everyone else was sopping wet in cotton sweatshirts. No fun for them... Glad you guys came.

I can't believe you wore those yellow crazy suits! But I guess you couldn't lose eachother there. Maybe I should get one for Nathan.....

Love the yellow suits! That made me laugh. It sounds like a great weekend and see how young you and Mom still are? You can still keep up with Tom and Michelle. Thats pretty impressive!
