Cedar Point!
I haven't been there for about 40 years. I keep asking the kids if they want to go, but no commitment yet. Maybe once the grandkids get a little older.
You know, you are totally allowed to just go even if your kids won't go with you.
Absolutely. We do something every year and I suggested Cedar Point the past two years. Last year, they opted for the zoo. Nice day. This year, Covid opted for us. We'll see next year. Before the grand kids were born, I tried to get them to go to the Wisconsin Dells. My brother lives an hour or two from there. No joy. I haven't been there since the early 70's. I hear it's a really nice long weekend these days.

Well the waterski show at the Dells just closed forever because they couldn’t handle a summer with no shows.
We have done the Kalahari and Great Wolf Lodge in the Dells. Those are nice, but obviously there is a lot more outside of those all inclusive places.

The last time I looked (7-8 years ago), they have one of the largest indoor waterparks anywhere. Our bunch has a thing for waterparks. They love them. I was there in like, 72ish. We did the duckboats. Lot's of fun for a young teenager.
I remember the waterski show. For some reason, I'm thinking that the troup that puts those shows on, are or were connected to the bunch doing them at the Busch Gardens parks.EDIT: Bartlett <maybe Don> Bartlett. Isn't that who sponsors or puts on the waterski shows?

Yes and it is closed / out of business.
Kalahari and Great Wolf are both great indoor water parks.
I liked Kalahari better, but both are great.

I'll make sure to mention them at the next family meeting.

CabinCon III
D&D weekend in a cabin. 3rd annual.
-
Figured I'd revive this thread.
Doing some early packing for the move in two weeks and diving into Ansible roles :).
-
Hike tomorrow am weather depending, then off to my father's to do clean out phase 2
-
Sadly, the same thing I do about every weekend,
Mow and rake it; laundry; Borderlands; other yard work; paper work; some TV,...The big one I need to not avoid: Employment search. These ten hour days are becoming more brutal.

Good revival time!

We are packing LIKE CRAZY. Too much to do to take a load to storage today. But we are loading the van and I'll take it tomorrow. We are down to one car because Paul already sold his, and he has to deal with tons of emergency COVID tests and things (emergency because of travel stuff, not because of having COVID) that require the only vehicle. He leaves Monday morning.
I'll be off to Houston tomorrow with a load for the storage unit. We are in the home stretch now!
We have someone over working in the yard today getting as much as possible ready.
Dominica is busily painting the dining room today.

With the move, will the house be sold?

Weekend plans -
Look for a better place to work.
Mow in the airborne swamp
other house work
Install the Ring Mount Camerawatch a movie maybe.. haven't done that in a while.
-
Sadly my daughter is sick so we can't go to the festival this weekend.
-
Saturday, I cut the grass, did school supply shopping, and grocery shopping.
Then parked my ass in the house in the A/C. Fuck 95+Today it is raining all day.
-
Don't know about your way - but the heat index just makes it that much more the suck...
Should have finished the grass yesterday but I likely would not have finished before it rained yesterday either. .. and it's been wet enough that it would need to be raked as well.. so I only got what was seen from the street for the moment.
Forecast: Rain most of the week,... again.

She's not feeling too badly now. But very sad that we had to miss the big event. She was really excited about it on Friday.
