Silverwood

Day 1 at Silverwood. This was actually the second day of our trip, of course, as the first consisted of driving all day just to get from the middle of Oregon all the way to Northern Idaho, LOL :) That, I could not normally do, but by the grace of the Lord, I pulled it off. It is about a 7-hour drive straight through, but I knew we would need to make stops to rest & stretch, too.

Ashley LOVES Garfield so Silverwood was right up her alley. Silverwood is similar to Knott's Berry Farm, except that instead of the mascott being Snoopy, it's Garfield,.. but I bet you had that figured out already, LOL :)

She's not into all the major rides and this trip was all about HER so we did her favorite things. That consisted of riding the carousel, the Tilt-a-Whirl and the Scrambler over & over & over & over & over & over & over & over & over & over & over &... notice, too that they are all circular, "spinning" type rides... & over & over & over & over & over & over & over... are ya dizzy yet?... & over & over & over & over & over & over & over again! :) I tell ya, she had a BLAST, but I don't think I've ever taken so much Dramamine in my entire life, LOL!! Eventually, she had to start going on them by herself because my poor stomach & head couldn't handle anymore, but that was fun, too. She would laugh & giggle so much that my heart could have burst from the joy it gave me!

Here's a look at our first day at the park...
