Carowinds . . .

So we went to Carowinds yesterday. It was warm but not un-bearable. Thomas finally rode one of the water rides and we all got wet. It kept us cool though. If you go to the Carowinds website they are selling tickets for a whole lot cheaper than you can get them from the Credit Unions and buying them at the gate. The food is very expensive as always. We packed a picnic and ate in the parking lot. I was surprised there were a lot of people doing the same thing. It was like going to a ballgame or something. People had their chairs and blankets and were sitting under the trees. We did not do all that we just sat in the car. The kids loved it they sat in the back with the hatch open and they thought they were something else. Mark laughed and said his folks used to do this all the time at the zoo. They would go and have a picnic in the parking lot. It beats the heck out of paying $30 for a slice of pizza that tastes like cardboard.

We are going to the movies today and then maybe bowling again. The kids are having fun on their stay-cation. I will try to post some pictures later of our trip to the park.
