Whatever Flies Your Boat

As bigger boys, the twin’s interest in carnival rides has greatly increased, and at this year’s International Bar-B-Q Festival they sampled several more rides. Benji pointed to this machine and said “hebacopter”, but after we paid our tickets they inexplicitly chose a speedboat. Maybe having ridden in Granddaddy Roe’s boat made this selection feel more comfortable. We wondered if they were ready for a flying ride, but it didn’t seem to bother them at all. In fact they were energized each time their boat crested about ten feet off the ground. At this thrill ride advancement rate, they’ll be mastering roller coasters by Kindergarten.
