I remember my family rented a huge RV so all of us could travel together. My grandparents were with us and I might add that these were grandparents like no other! They taught us so much about life and living. Being a child, I thought it was quite humorous that these "old people" were going to a thrill park with us. But wouldn't you know it - they did everything we did! My grandfather rode The Racer with us laughing and screaming the whole way. They kept up with us wherever we went even though we walked our feet off and the heat was overwhelming at times. They NEVER complained. They seemed to be enjoying the day even more than we were. But how could that be? Maybe it was because they had lived through the Depression and World War II, and had learned not to take any day for granted. When we finally did stop for ice cream and a break, it was the best ice cream I ever had -- not because it tasted so good but because I realized I had learned something that day that I hope to pass to my young children. A day at Kings Island is fun and action-packed just as life tends to be however, if we don't sit in the shade and enjoy an ice cream break and the people in our lives, then we really aren't living at all. It's the people and family in your life that makes everything else worthwhile! Thank you for such wonderful memories. Betty B. from Stanford, KY. will receive two tickets to Paramount's Kings Island.
