Ron’s new ride @ Fiesta Texas

Last week Fiesta Texas held a private gathering for full time employees to preview the new ride prior to opening this week. 

Here are a few shots – the tower is 200’ and I have no idea how far the swing span is – but it is amazing

Ink’s Lake & camping

We spent a few days last week at one of our favorite state parks – Ink's Lake State Park up by Marble Falls, Texas.  Ashley, Alan and the boys met us for our first camping adventure together.  It was a lot  of fun  here are a few photos of our campsite and waters edge
