First, let’s see what is going on at Worlds of Fun… Kansas City Flavor Weekends June 2-11 Now in its second and final weekend, the Kansas City Flavor looked … Continue reading A Look Ahead … and a review (look back)
Bike ride across America
Today's post is a short one, about a story I saw on the Houghton College Facebook feed, about four students, recent graduates, who are biking across America. This blog follows their journey, which started in mid-May. I haven't had a chance to barely read any of it, since I came across it over the weekend, … Continue reading Bike ride across America
A Blast of the Past #99: Geauga Lake
One of our favorite finds was Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom Park. Apparently Six Flags once owned an amusement park and water park at Geauga Lake, but ended up selling it to Cedar Fair, which kept the water park open but closed the amusement park, my assumption being that it was too close to Cedar Point … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #99: Geauga Lake

At that time King's … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #97: Kings Island

Even most poor Americans of our day have items that the rich didn't have … Continue reading The bounty of cultural appropriation
A Blast of the Past #94: India, Part 5
With a heavy work schedule, I didn't take time to tour Mumbai much until my last night there, where many from the office took me on an all-night tour of the city that ran into the next morning. We saw sights from the uptown, to the downtown, from waterfront to the airport. It was a … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #94: India, Part 5
Back in January I wrote about the flowering of my indoor dwarf lemon tree. I am glad to report at this time that I now have at least 10 very young, very green, very small lemons growing on my tree. That isn't many compared to all the blossoms it had, but in all the history … Continue reading
A Look Ahead …
Today's look ahead is going to strat with a look behind. Last weekend, opening weekend for Worlds of Fun, included times with the Easter Bunny. The above photo was taken on Saturday in the new entry plaza. My family was too busy with church and larger family activities on Easter to actually make it to … Continue reading A Look Ahead …
