Trying to stay cool, it's hotter than the AC can handle this weekend.

We had a big drop in temp here and my feet are freezing.

We have one coming. Fingers crossed that it gets here soon.

Cedar Point!

I haven't been there for about 40 years. I keep asking the kids if they want to go, but no commitment yet. Maybe once the grandkids get a little older.

@scotth couple more years and my kids will be old enough to take them

You know, you are totally allowed to just go even if your kids won't go with you.

Absolutely. We do something every year and I suggested Cedar Point the past two years. Last year, they opted for the zoo. Nice day. This year, Covid opted for us. We'll see next year. Before the grand kids were born, I tried to get them to go to the Wisconsin Dells. My brother lives an hour or two from there. No joy. I haven't been there since the early 70's. I hear it's a really nice long weekend these days.

Well the waterski show at the Dells just closed forever because they couldn’t handle a summer with no shows.

We have done the Kalahari and Great Wolf Lodge in the Dells. Those are nice, but obviously there is a lot more outside of those all inclusive places.

The last time I looked (7-8 years ago), they have one of the largest indoor waterparks anywhere. Our bunch has a thing for waterparks. They love them. I was there in like, 72ish. We did the duckboats. Lot's of fun for a young teenager.
I remember the waterski show. For some reason, I'm thinking that the troup that puts those shows on, are or were connected to the bunch doing them at the Busch Gardens parks.

EDIT: Bartlett <maybe Don> Bartlett. Isn't that who sponsors or puts on the waterski shows?

Yes and it is closed / out of business.

Kalahari and Great Wolf are both great indoor water parks.

I liked Kalahari better, but both are great.
