For the past 2 days we have all had a blast at Cedar Point. The rides sometimes left us speechless, and other times left our stomaches queasy, but never failed to amaze. The number of high thrill roller coasters is astonishing when compared to any other theme park that I have ever visited. The RV park was awesome (especially if I had known about the showers, since I was the only one who attempted to shower in our RV. It started out promising, though there turned out not to be enough water pressure to come out of the shower hose and since i already had put shampoo in my hair I had to crouch with my head between my feet to get the little amount of water that was coming out of the spout to rinse, truly a pathetic image).
As we left the park today we were able to snap some great pictures of the rides that we enjoyed so much and headed to Ann Arbor, Michigan to visit the University where Dave's sister will attend school next year (Happy Birthday Anna! see picture below). We hung around for a little while, checked out the big house and then moved on to just outside of South Bend, Indiana to spend the night. We've got another great RV park tonight, this time fully equipped with free wi fi and a map of all KoA campgrounds across the country!
Today was the first time that Mike left me drive again (he thinks he is a superior driver despite totaling 3 cars since getting his license!) and this time we did not break down. Driving this beast reminds me of the good ole days where I drove my conversion van around school until my parents broke my heart and gave it away while I was working last summer (love you mom and dad!). Despite running out of water a few days ago and lacking the essential hose to refill our tank, we were able to create a makeshift funnel from a water bottle and partially refill our fresh water with a bucket (now we can wash dishes again!).
Tomorrow morning we will visit Notre Dame and then begin the long journey out to South Dakota to see Mount Rushmore.Please check out our progress so far and pictures at the links posted below...

I think I'd like to have seen you in that shower pose but I'm not sure. Had we known you would care and pay for Bessie we would have kept her. As it was I had to do a lot of cleaning out from those wonderful days you spent with her at UVA....and what did happen to that wheel well and window???
Safe and happy travels. Great pics!
Love, Mom
Couldn't figure out how to comment on Dave's set of pictures but glad to see that the Chex Mix made it to its appropriate spot next to the driver!
