Through all the seasons we'll keep going on

Survived another week on my humor blog too. Somehow. Here, you explain it.





Now that Cedar Point closed for the day here's just another dozen pictures of walking out of a place I've walked out of a hundred times already.

Llamas and donkeys at the ``historical'' farm/petting zoo in the Frontier Trail area.

The Trail Tavern has not just moss but grass and even a small tree growing in it. The Panda Express at the start of the Frontier Trail had a similar pleasant overgrowth, but they cleaned that off before the 2021 season.

And here's a contrail making a neat tangent to ValRavn's curves.



Trivia: The 1974 Memorandum of Understanding between NASA and Canada's National Research Council regarding the building of the Canadarm guaranteed Canadian access to the space shuttle, but specifically only that Canadian experiments would be able to fly on it, not guaranteeing space for Canadian astronauts.
