Cedar Point

These pictures were taken in August 2003 at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio.

Power was out in the entire North East, so we sat on the cars and drank.

And told stories.

9:30am at the entrance to the Cedar Point Amusement Park.

The opening hill of the "Raptor."

Yeehaa!

I am not much of a fan of rides that go upside down, but this one was fun.

People whizzing by the line at "Millennium Force."

It is 30 stories tall.

With an 80 degree incline.

You get a great view from the top.

"Top Thrill Dragster" is 40 stories tall, and you travel at 120 MPH straight up.

Max waiting in line.

People making sure their eyes are still in their heads after the ride.

This fellow was making odd noises into the microphone.

Max contemplates life, the universe, and his Pepsi.

Carolyn's brother, John.

Our group. Ryan, Carolyn, Jennifer, John, and Max.

Two evil horns growing out of the park in the distance.

"Millennium Force" and "Mantis" in the distance.

"Raptor"

"Power Tower" and "Top Thrill Dragster"

Carolyn.

One of the devilish spires from "Wicked Twister."

Rain falling into the diving pool.

We are hot, wet, and pissed off. Max looks happy though.

.

A very sad looking tree. Very Dr. Seuss-ish.

Consulting the park map.

Hot, wet, pissed off people.

I have no idea. It was just sitting there.

"Top Thrill Dragster" is really damn tall.

.

So is "Power Tower."

Same to you buddy!

Max, John, Carolyn, and Jennifer on "Wicked Twister."

I did not go on this one.

It made several people feel very sick.

A cute redheaded mermaid in the dive pool.

A Seagull perched on the edge of the roof, ready to crap on anyone who dares sit in the first row.

And another, the second gunman on the grassy knoll.

An image from "Snoopy's Summer Spectacular Laser Light Show."

Mwa ha ha ha! 3 feet of Margarita Goodness!

It was a challenge that had to be met.

We even got pretty green salt.

It is called a Giraffe. I know what I want for my birthday.

A very animated Jennifer

A drunken Max.

What your friends look like when you've had 50 ounces of margarita.

Going...

Going...

Gone!

Three severely drunk people.

Perhaps we shall have another? Perhaps not.

"Why don't they use Linux?" - At least that's what it should have said.

A very sunburned Ryan.
