Grandpa David loves to watch his grandsons have fun, and the only thing better than watching their pleasure is sharing it. Few rides accommodate multiple generation amusement better than the Merry-Go-Round. On our visit to the Bar-B-Q Festival last weekend, both Pa and Granny rode the carousel with the twins. Casey’s Rides has been the premier carnival ride provider in our area for decades. It is entirely likely Pa and Granny rode this very same Merry-Go-Round with me and my brother when we were toddlers, and certainly one just like this carried them and their parents when they were toddlers. This common reference point unlocks long forgotten reminiscences and carries passengers back to fond memories of yesterdays. No wonder he has a smile on his face.
