Texas State Fair

Since so many rides were closed, we ended our day at Six Flags about 4:30 or 5.. and drove over to the Texas State Fair. We just wanted to check it out, eat some weird fried stuff.. and maybe take a ride on the Ferris Wheel. We walked around for a while, took pictures, the boys drank beer, I drank lemonade.. we ate some fried stuff. The line for the Ferris Wheel was so long, that I didn't even want to wait on it.

Lemonade and a fried s'more

Funnel Cake and beer

We wanted to try the chicken fried bacon, but we weren't exactly sure how that would taste. I spotted a couple who had just bought some and were taking their first bites. I asked them how it was and the nice people let us try some of theirs. It was really good! It would have been better with some ranch to dip it in or something.

We stuck around for the parade and then headed back to Austin.

It was a Super Saturday!

Super Saturday

It's been a long time since we've had Super Saturday. Super Saturday is a Saturday that is jam packed with fun.. and that's just what we had this past weekend. Diego, David, Chubbs and I woke up early.. (like 5 am early!) and headed to Dallas.

We picked up Chubbs and then went to the gas station. Our day could have ended right there, as I almost put Diesel in my gas tank. I didn't realize that I had picked up the green handled pump.. when I did realize I had a hard time just hanging the stupid pump back up. Which started the quote of the day.. "What's wrong with this thing? ..What the eff is wrong with this thing?" After that, we got David, and headed out of town.

Back to back rides on the Titan started off our day.

The Giant, Flashback and Mr. Freeze were all broken down for the day. Sucky!

Mark G? Hey, Mark Gibson.. is that you?

It was fright fest, which really means nothing.. except cooler weather, shorter lines and some scary stuff around the park. Oh and the Michael Jackson CD on repeat at the entrance of the park.
