COUNTDOWN-4 DAYS UNTIL SUMMER THUNDER 2005

In my last post I explained about Summer Thunder. "Prelude To Montreal - Summer Thunder 2005." I promised to tell you where it will be held. Only in one of my favorite places in my world. Delgrosso's Amusement Park, located in Tipton, Pennsylania.

This park is owned by the Delgrosso family. It's been in operation for over 50 years. You may have heard of the wonderful spaghetti sauce and meatballs they manufacture. What I love about this park is the family atmosphere, you feel right at home the minute you walk inside the park. They have free parking, free admission, and you can't beat the price of the all day ride passes. They even offer a $3.00 coupon on their sauce jars. The food is unbelievable. All made from italian family recipes. My favorites are their pizza and hoagies. Every Wednesday is Spaghetti Wendesday. You can always get an order of spaghetti and their own meatballs topped with their Delgrosso sauce. But they also offer a different special every Wednesday, one might be Gnocchi's and meatballs, lasagna, chicken with penne pasta and alfrado sauce, it's all homemade and delicious.

They have rides, waterworks rapids, a speedway, and miniture golf course. They offer a free concert every month during the summer, and antique car shows. In July they have a Native American Pow Wow.

Another favorite time for me to spend at Delgross's Park is during Harvestfest. Venders come from all over the country displaying and selling their art work. You'll see homemade apple butter boiling in the cast iron pot over an open fire, ham and bean soup, honey, homemade rugs and clothes. Way too much to even mention here.

I hope you are enjoying parts of my world, my way, today. I'll try to keep you posted on the progress of the countdown to Summer Thunder.

I was hoping to post everyday. But like I said in my profile. This is all one big experiment and blogging is all new to me. I had some real editing problems yesterday. I think I finally got things worked out. In the meantime, I'm getting one heck of an education.

I hope you enjoyed my world, my way, today,
Peace
