COOL THING ABOUT LIVING IN TOLEDO: Cedar Point!

Today is the first time in as long as I can remember that I HAVEN'T gone to Cedar Point at least once in the Summer. It has been common place that I take my daughter to Cedar Point (in Sandusky Ohio, about an hour and 15 minutes away, as the crow flies) every year on or for her birthday at the end of June. She went with her boyfriend and his sister and her fiance' today.It wasn't for any special occasion; her boyfriend's parents had free tickets and gave them to the kids. Even if I would have had a ticket, I have no idea who I would have asked to go with me, and you REALLY SHOULD go in groups of two, so no one is waiting around to ride a ride. That happened to me last year AND the year before! We had invited Richard, my daughter's best friend (that recently moved to Knoxville, TN, and whom I REALLY miss having around ) to go with us. They wanted to run from ride to ride, and ride coasters that I can't ride (the wooden ones and ones that jerk my neck) so I just wandered around by myself, window shopping, eating, and got so bored that I actually went out to he car and TOOK A NAP! AT CEDAR POINT!! I vowed this past year that I would not go again without a friend of my own. And lately, for me,m they are few and far between. Although, I must note that my old grade school friend, Judy Gawronski has been getting in tough with me, which is awesome, and my friend from the corner., Jeremy, has been in touch and we actually went out last night down to the docks. We had 3 long Island ice Teas , took the water taxi across the River over to the Rally By the River, downtwon, had a bloomin' onion, ride the taxi back, and danced our butts off till the bar almost closed. I had a GREAT WONDERFUL FUN AND LONG NEEDED GOOD tIME. But back to the Cedar point story.Many friends that I COULD have asked to go, IF I would have had a fre ticket and a ride (I have no car at the present), either work a lot, or have children that they may have wanted to take..NO THANK YOU. NO KIDS. NOT WIHEN I GO TO CEDAR POINT..Well, unless I am getting paid to babysit them. Then that's different.. As far as the kids that went today, as it turned out - they unkowingly chosen the most awesome day they could have gone so far this month. We have had temperatures in the 90's for well over a week, and more to come next week, but TODAY: 80 and cloudy. GREAT for CEDAR POINT. No HOT sun to burn you like a lobster, and no threat of rain either to speak of, just a only slightly humid summer day with clouds. AWESOME. One of my favorite things to do when someone I know goes to Cedar Point is to find them on one of the web cams...I love to look for them periodically throughout the day on one of the 4-5 web cams that are USUALLY working, and didn't have bugs stuck to it.. Today only one seems to be up, and that is the Sky Ride web cam. I have attempted to include it in with my post, in case someone you know is at the "ROLLER COASTER CAPITAL" Today!!

Let's see if this web cam is going to work: (If not, I will post the link to get to it at the bottom)
