Wow, has it been crazy around here lately. Just when we finished up fair we started packing for Cedar Point. Not every year, but twice now we’ve meet my father-in-law in Sandusky Ohio. We stay at the Great Wolf Lodge which has a water park in it and visit Cedar Point which is the coaster park mecca of at least the Midwest if not the USA.
I have to tell you I much preferred the water park to the amusement park, maybe I’m getting old?
 
The day we were at Cedar Point was very hot which didn’t help. I’m not sure what the temperature was but driving at 8p.m. that night we saw a sign that said 88 so it must have topped 90 earlier! We did the water rides which helped cool us off but also kept us wet throughout the day.
 
At the hotel we could take a more leisurely pace and enjoy all the waterslides. The kids loved it and when we got tired of sliding we enjoyed the adult only area with great hot tubs for our aches and pains!
Oh, and I have to tell you about the God sighting on this trip. When we left Cedar Point to go back to the hotel there were funny sounds coming from our engine. We made it back to our parking lot however before the car was undrivable. It was our serpentine belt. As I called my Dad who does most of the work on my car to see what we were looking at as far as major or minor repair we noticed two guys with a big tool box under a car a couple rows away.
My Dad said we could fix it but we need a tool to do it. Since we just spotted these guys under a car with a tool box we thought we'd walk over and ask! Turns out, the one man was a maintenance employee for the hotel. We had to go get the part and he put it on for us in the parking lot. I don't think he knew it but I think God sent him! Major problem averted.
I hope you’re all making the most of the end of your summer too! I’m not ready for school yet!
