| Six Flags |
 We had a great trip to Six Flags Yesterday. There were almost 40 of us which is a great number. Everyone checked in on time and we even hit the road 10 minutes early because everyone returned to the vans a little early. The only bummer was the price of gas. We will not have to pay for all of the gas because the tanks in the van were not full when we picked them up but regardless we filled them up and the price was over $260 for three vans. That is crazy!
Anyway, here is a pic of Noah walking away form Sylvester the cat, he was scared of him. I am hoping Al will write up a little story and send some of his pics. He has a great story from one of the water rides. |
