Today we went to Silver Dollar City. We've been watching the weather all week, trying to decide what day would be the best weather-day to go. It turned out to be beautiful, in the 70's and sunny so we were thankful for the right choice. We spent almost 7 hours here. The park usually has 20-30,000 per day. Today their count was 1,020. We basically had the park to ourselves. There was never a line and on most of the roller coasters, they let us stay on and keep riding and riding. At one time Tony and Brock were in the front car and Quinn and I were in the last car... with no one in between. Eventually 3 of us got tired out and Quinn was the only one on the whole ride! We definitely got our money's worth. We went to the Chinese Acrobat Show as well was the Irish Dancers. The kids weren't into the shows as much but tolerated them for the 30 minutes each. We went to Mazzio's Pizza for supper, then it was back to the condos for ice cream and warm cookies, swimming and euchre, melting into bed about 11:30. Tony hasn't worn his watch all week on purpose... not wanting to live by the time like we usually do. Hope your weeks are going well too.

Wow, Silver Dollar City has definitely improved since 1983. They didn't have roller coasters back then, just a log ride. ha ha
Dr. P wants to know if you guys were ok with the 1000 lb. limit on the Miller Bridge. Yup, things haven't changed here...he's still a stinker!
...now he's saying he just meant "are they ok" not about the bridge...just if you were ok! HA!
I am surprised Silver Dollar City is even open. How neat to have the place to yourself. Beats the LONNNNNNg lines at Disney World !!
Sounds like you have done it all , and your weather is certainly better than ours in Kalona area . We have snow predicted for tonight !!
I assume you are starting home tomorrow ?
If we had known ahead of time Lisa and Matt were going to go thru the "talk" , we could have gotten credit . What free things did they get ??
