REPOST - Valleyfair this Friday!

JUST A REMINDER OF THIS FRIDAY'S BIG DAY!!

We’ve been talking about getting a group of us LOSERS together at Valleyfair for quite some time now! So after my post about making the movie Liar Liar an event, me & the Caveman have been discussing making it a full-day/evening event!  

Here’s the idea. Make it a series of events, strung together on one day. People can come for any or all of it! The date is August 15^th. (I know, that’s this Friday, but that’s the date of the movie anyway – so let’s not debate that part, okay?)  

Part 1... Meet at Caribou at the Southwest Station for Coffee – say, 9am?  

Part 2... Car Pool to VF from coffee. This will help reduce parking costs (I believe it’s $10 per car at VF).  Stay at the park all day, ride ‘til we’re SILLY, and leave around 6:00pm.   

Part 3… Have a nice dinner at Ruby Tuesdays, Old Chicago, or any of a number of other restaurants in the area.  (Hit the liquor store if desired.)   

Part 4… Head to Purgatory Park for the evening entertainment, Liar Liar, presented by our very own PAUL (aka CAVEMAN!!!).  

  (I'll pull this if you make me...)

Part 5… Hit the Brunswick Zone like we did last year – bowl, laugh, shoot pool, however the spirit moves us! (was there not a bit of karaoke happening last year? I seem to recall singing out loud…VERY loud. Like there was a microphone in my hand or something… Paul? Lori? Laurie?  Anyone???)  

Part 6… Head home, or to a hotel.

Pick your parts, or pick it all.  Yes, it would be worth a day off of work!  Yes, it would be worth coming down from St. Cloud, Wisconsin, Duluth, etc...!  IF you take the hotel option, then whoever road trips can partake in some shopping on Saturday.  (MOA, Eden Prairie Center, Southdale – whatever!)  If you can’t join in for parts 1 & 2, then join up for Part 3, 4 and/or 5!  Cool eh?  

I have to give Paul all the credit for this plan – it’s quite brilliant, really!   

I've broken the news to my boss and my kidlets!  Who's gonna join us? 

Here's a more recent (skinnier!) photo of Paul (if he doesn't make me pull it! hehe)



I WILL BE THERE!! It'll be a nice 'adult' LOSER crowd!

That's not me.

Really huh? Prove it!

Oh heck---
I so wanna join you guys--even if I do get so sick on MOST of the rides! {{POUTING}}

But...ain't got no job, ain't got no money, car's past due for  maintenance..**WHINE**  WHINE**  SHOOT--can't do nuthin' but **WHINE**WHINE**

Maybe next year--if life gets better..

Have fun and think of me STUCK here in Thunder Bay, havin' no fun at all.

(((HUGS))
**SUE**

Sounds like a fun filled day!! I have to bow out though, hubby and I are going camping and tubing down the Platt River up by Randell. One of my goals is to ride coasters again after a few lbs come off. So next year is VF year for me.

I'll be at Caribou probably around 8:30/9 to load up for the big day.  I will drive a carpool to VF from Caribou so any riders from SW are welcome.  If you need a map of where SW is, let me know.  Darla also has the map.

IT"S MY SURG-VERSARARYASRY...indeed...on FRIDAY...and what better way to celebrate!

Steel VENOM is MINE...MINE I SAY.  WHO will tame her with me....gotta sit in the FRONT...yes, the FRONT is the happy seat.

Can't wait.....

C'man

You, me...front -- I am 100 percent there!!!

Methinks we're gonna have to ride the venom MULTIPLE times!   And the Extreme Swings, and perhaps even - the Corkscrew?  LOL...

And yes, Paul, that skinnier dude IS YOU.  Deal with it!

And for the record, Trav was just looking over my shoulder.  Saw your pic from MY post, and then the pic Elena posted.

His response?  "HOLY CRAP, HE'S LOST A TON OF WEIGHT!"

so TAKE THAT, CAVEMAN!!!!
