OAKS: THE FINAL CHAPTER

Today was my last day at Oaks Amusement Park before they close for the fall and winter.

Goodbye, Scrambler.

Goodbye, Up Up & Away.

Goodbye, Chipper’s Choppers.

Then it started to rain and it was time to run.

Gee, I can’t possibly see why they close all fall and winter…

See ya next spring, Oaks!

LEGO ROAD TRIP

I created a new game and I LOVE IT. It’s called “LEGO Road Trip.”

First, I drop a bunch of pins on Google Maps and have Mommy write down the addresses. Then I pick a bunch of LEGOs for each stop and put them in their own baggie. Finally, we drive to each location, park on the side of the road, and I build a LEGO roller coaster car!

I even picked out a place to have lunch (El Indio in Portland) and built a roller coaster car there, too. We’re definitely doing this again!

MUSIC IN THE PARK 2019: GIRL CAN’T HELP IT

It was my last Music in the Park for 2019. While next Thursday’s summer finale is happening, I’ll be sleeping soundly in my bed to be ready for school the next morning.

So I made it a good one! First, I love walking to the park from our house.

I also love the bouncy castle. And this slide is amazing!

Finally, I love walking home as the sun sets. I can’t wait for next summer!

OAKS AMUSEMENT PARK VI

Today was my final trip to Oaks Amusement Park before school starts. It was a cool, drizzly day, but I scrambled my brains out on The Scrambler!

I also sat in this Screamin’ Eagle practice seat, just waiting to become 48 inches tall.

Speaking of waiting to become 48 inches tall, I watched Adrenaline Peak go about 100 times before finally heading home.
