Kevin and Greg were waking back in the room and before long we were off to
spend the day at Six Flags Over Texas.
It was a nice walk over to the park. I had to explain what fire
ants were to Greg and Kevin so they wouldn't step in the myriad of nests
on the way and end up with their lower extremities
feeling like they're burning from being bit. Fire ants are
definitely one of the things that I don't miss about living in Texas.
Like most amusement parks Six Flags Over Texas opens their gates a
little early and then corrals everyone in the front of the park before
they drop the rope at opening time letting us all dash off to the rides. Since we had
nothing better to do we headed into the stores to browse around and goof
off. Here's Greg with his riding companion "Igor Rider".
