I got the few things picked in the garden yesterday morning after rousting the boys out of bed to get themselves ready for the day.

I had found a Contigo cup base model that I was able to scale well enough and printed out. Our beer cups had lost one of the feet last year so I needed one for our trip this year. It works perfect and just needed a large o-ring in the bottom that holds it on. It got comments most every time we refilled.

It was a 50 minute drive up and over the hump to get to the park.

The line was really long at the entrance but it moved pretty quickly. Even got to watch a stunt plane doing tricks to the south of the park. Very likely a Redbull pilot given the incredible tricks. Straight vertical to a back flop into a flat spin then dive, or the straight vertical and then stopped in mid air and hovered before adding some gas and gaining altitude a few times then pitched over and dove at the ground.

It was amazing, no line to get in the gate.

The boys wanted to go on one roller coaster so off to Tremors we went. The 3 of them went on it as I wasn't wanting to jar my back and shoulders too much. They had a minimal line to wait in.

I plopped down beneath the track after the first tunnel after the first drop to watch them go screaming by.

This was the quick view I got of them as they blasted past. @stryeyz and R were in the front car and J right behind them.

After the ride we headed to the water park where we got food to eat then headed for the lazy river to float.

It was a fun day of people watching.

The bar abutting the lazy river was quite handy.

By 4:30 we were looking to head out and gathered our stuff, emptied the locker, and made our way out to the car.

It was a 45 minute drive back up over the hump and then into Elk for the last kickball night of the summer.

The kids all had a blast and we got some good laughs out of it.

We made it home after 7pm and I found my print had finished nicely. It was a 8 hour print in PLA. We watched the new South Park episode then all ended up crashing.

Today begins our hot stretch for the next week or so. I'll get the garden done early, bag potatoes, maybe dig more, then I will work on the truck engine more, pickup the co-op order mid day, and keep trying to get the docker-wyze-bridge working on the OPi.

Sounds like a good time my friend, and it’s really a plus that the lines weren’t too bad!👍😊

This time the tiredness is due to sharing moments in the water park, those places are usually very relaxing and fun.
