Since Susan missed out on the Kennywood Park trip last week, we decided to go again yesterday.  Not many pictures to post, because Susan happened to be in the frame, and she looked like a cat after a bath, because we rode water rides early. They did have a new water ride that reopened, so we had to do that one. 
 

There was a line for it. 
 

 

The raging rapids had rather small rafts, compared to some other parks. 
 

 

For those who don’t know, Kennywood was built in 1898.  Some of the rides are over 100 years old.  I found it interesting that the racer is one of three in the world built this way.

Sad news tonight.

Irish singer Sinead O'Connor has died aged just 56.

Very sad indeed. Very talented but very troubled soul. I truly hope she has finally found peace.

We had both grandsons today.  Plans were to go boating, but I need to find time to work on it before it goes out again.  So we did lunch here. 
 

 

And I always love their sandwiches. 
 

 

Then we took the boys to the North Country Trail for a little hike

 

And som impromptu building along the stream. 
 

 

I think they need to enroll in a course on structural stability.  Don’t think this will last long.  
 

Tonight is an outdoor concert for us.

There was somebody on it, creating a milk drama ....the thread was something like..... .Lie is a Lie is  a Lie on the main RC board. Entertaining read, but may have been pulled down (?)

Yes, it was an entertaining thread to say the least.    Your suggestion for the OP to say something since it is a President's cruise seem to fall upon deaf ears.

Glad to hear Susan is back at it with the summer activities.

Look how RC makes it’s carrot cake.  No reference of raisins.

I miss Primantis, used to go each time we visited our daughter at Pitt.  There is a Pittsburgh Bar/Restaurant here that tries but it's definitely not the same.

Went to Maryland Live and got a nice surprise hopefully can do it again on Oasis.

😀  Been a long time since I’ve been to Kennywood.  Lots of memories there.  Is the Potato Patch still there?  Loved those french fries!!

Did anyone else notice that today is Mick Jagger’s 80th birthday?  I’m amazed.

I knew that .He is still drawing crowds just like 83 year old Ringo Starr.

Yes it is still there, although we got fries from some other spots.  
 

I seems like a few rides have been closed the couple times we were there this year. We plan to go back the second week of August, and take all the grandkids.  Will see if some of those same rides are still closed. It has been nice since the park has not been crowded.

Safe travels.   As much as I have previously talked about going through Newark for European flights, I do hope you are connecting elsewhere based on recent issues.

Congratulations!

 

Looks like you might have just paid for your cruise...and dining package....and maybe a few excursions as well.

we go through Dulles on departure ❤️ Many plans for that long layover

I had a 6 hr layover at Dulles en route to Rome once. Wasn’t fun but at least we had Rome and the Med to look forward to. Have a great trip and look forward to your pics as always!

I have been meaning to ask you if you tried doing the smell training or not.  If you did, it doesn't seem to have helped you. 😞  I am still doing it but still have limited taste and even more limited smell.

Unfortunately, I was not a success either.  I ordered the kit you had mentioned and had high hopes. I could “smell” something, but nothing I could identify.  Didn’t improve from there.  As I tell my friends, I wouldn’t even wish this on my ex.  

So much enjoyment that we take for granted…coffee, toothpaste, garlic butter……. I’m a wine person and belong to several wine clubs.  I am in the process of cancelling them, because what is the point.

Sorry, pity party over.  It could be something worse.

Was loss of taste/smell a result of Covid?

No, it happened before I ever had a case of Covid.
