Wednesday was Cedar Point day--woohoo!!! This was actually part of the "time is now" tour because it was Reggie's first time at the park since bariatric surgery, so he was riding many rides for the first time. I also rode a few rides for the first time (maXair, Maverick, Top Thrill Dragster, and Skyhawk). I do have one ride photo from the Maverick, but I will need to scan it when I'm at home after the tour. For now, here is a photo of our group near the end of the day (waiting in line for ride #2 on Maverick):

This was a very special and exciting day for me, among other reasons, because it was a return to my youth. Growing up, my family visited Cedar Point (or Kings Island) every year. At some point, I started going with school trips or with friends from school. When I moved to Arkansas for six years, I very much missed the Cedar Point experience. This was my first return to the park since 2003 (I went then for my 30th birthday). I still love it all, and I hope I return more frequently in the future.
I will make two comments for any future Cedar Point park goers: (1) ride the Maverick--it is an absolute thrill ride, and (2) check out the Starlight Experience along the Frontier Trail at night.
