Day 2 @ Carowinds

If you see this crowd.....RUN the other direction! ha ha! Just kidding!!!! Everyone except Grandmother and Pa-paw in this picture!

Austin had to pose at the stateline on our way in (with Caleb)! He thought it was pretty cool to go back and forth between the two states!

Here's Logan attempting to be in BOTH states at the same time! You can see what Austin's thinking...ha!


I still can't get over the weather in JULY!!! It was in the lower 70's all day, off and on drizzle (nothing heavy enough to stop any rides...yay!), and at times chilly enough to give you chill bumps! MUCH better than the scortching hot temperatures we are used to (just three days before we had a heat index of 113!).


This (obviously) isn't one of the bigger rollercoaster but a favorite! No lines meant repeated riding!


The guys took a break from rides while we waited for Austin & Grandmother. Logan was a good shot!



Austin and Grandmother rode "The Cobra" (which turned out not to be one of Austin's favorites). He says the frontward part isn't too bad, but the backward part makes you LITERALLY feel like you are going to fall out.


Our two boys with Grandmother and Pa-paw (in front of Pa-paw's signature ride!)! :)

We all had a really good time!!! MUCH better that a video game or toy! This is going to a trip to remember...afterall, Pa-paw rode a rollercoaster (even bigger than than the last one...WOW!!!!)! Maybe we'll make it a yearly thing and change up the location each year! Thank-you, Grandmother & Pa-paw!!!

(Maybe a Smilebox to follow bc I have LOTS more photos to share!)
