Sandusky, OH home of Cedar Point Park

Today's ride consisted of great roads (finally) and pretty decent weather. We arrived to our lodging, SS Industries, just in time for lunch. After the lunch, we had another fun dance with their clients. While at the dance I met a guy named Tony who could have easily joined Team Nashville with Winston and I based off of the number of country songs he knows. I also had the brief opportunity to meet a woman named Joanne who is pictured at left. We all had a fun time with her. She hated being photographed and so it became a game to try and get her in a picture. She also liked coming up beside you and bumping hips. She definitely had an impact on a lot of guys. After cleaning up, we headed to Cedar Point, rated the number one amusement park in the country. It was pretty special because in the past the park has donated tickets to the team. This year they discontinued the sponsorship but the people at SS Industries wanted us to be able to still go so they put on car washes to raise money so we could continue the Cedar Point tradition. It was a pretty special gesture. Anyway, despite the incredible humidity, we really enjoyed riding the many great roller coasters at Cedar Point. These rides were incredible and definitely set the bar for amusement parks in the future. Later in the evening Dave Brown and myself grabbed Arby's jamocha shakes before we all headed to bed for our ride on into Cleveland.
