If you happen by Cedar Point this summer, Check out the Ice show (who knew?) where my daughter is the lead female soloist.
She is also 1800 miles from home with a 13 year old Volvo. She knows how to change a coil pack and how to use the code reader I sent with her.
I should probably just buy an open ended round trip ticket for the eventual repair trip. Or, hire one of you smart (trustworthy.....) VSrs when the time comes.

We go all the time in the summer, it isn't that far from us. There's a lot of really cool shit in that part of Ohio, especially put-in bay.

Cedar point's coasters are some of the best in the world. Love that place.

I never saw an IROC driver without a mullet, usually flapping in the wind with the t-tops off and one of the "W" bands, ( winger, warrant, whitesnake) blaring loudly.

Thanks.
They are in rehearsals til this weekend I believe then shows start. If nothing else, the icecrink is a good place to be all summer.

Cant beat the ice rink. They have a zillion kids working there in the summer and it seems like most of them are on broom patrol. Their waterpark is kickass Too.
The only downside to the entire park is that there's only three places to buy beers and its draft only. The waterpark has a sweet bar that's in a pool, kinda pricey but they keep the trash out and the cats that work there will mix up some strong drinks if you tip them right.
