Our Big Trip Part 8 (Manassa Celebration)

The last day of the Celebration.  We got to the parade a little late because we did the 5k that morning in Manassa.  Kyle with the big boys watching the parade.

 After the parade we went over to the carnival.  The first ride the boys wanted to do was the ferris wheel.  This is the only one I would do with them.  Once I got up there I was wanting to get back down.
 Up and down Manassa Main Street.

 Then they wanted to do the roller coaster.

 Last year we went to the Motocross.  We went late enough that we didn't have to pay but we still got to see enough.  This year I was aiming for that but didn't quite make it.  Instead of paying $25 for everyone we just decided to walk to the end of the fence and watch them take off for free.  It was cool to see, and super loud.  We could see the race pretty good too.

 Then we went back to Aunt Karma's and just hung out and watched the fireworks and sat by the fire.

It was the end.  I felt like I had ran a marathon by the time we got home on Sunday.  We had the best time on our Big Trip, but it was time to get home.  We had been gone for 2 weeks, but I would do it all over again today.
