Cedar Point

We've had a long hiatus from posting.  So, the next few posts will be catch up.  We apologize for not posting in chronological order, but better late then never.

So, going back in time to the Monday before the wedding, we took a trip to Cedar Point Amusement Park.  The point of the trip was to de-stress from wedding prep and just have fun.  Lucky for us, school was still in session and it was rainy--we got the park almost to ourselves.  The only down side was that the fastest roller coaster, the Dragster, was out of commission.  That meant we missed out on a 120 mph thrill ride.  Despite the downside, we still rode lots of coasters at really fast speeds.  One highlight was riding the Millenium Force three times in the rain at 93 mph.  Basically, the rain hit our faces so hard that it felt like a hurricane--awesome!!!

As this was my first trip to Cedar Point, I must confess that I'm a big fan.  Even though we all got soaked and cold, it was definitely worth it.  No doubt Nicki and I will find ourselves back there soon.

The trip was particularly fun for the whole Shepherd family as they got to visit Ohio.  As the pictures show, they showed their loyalty with plenty of Ohio State gear and making human signs.  Enjoy the pictures!
