The weather was great today. It got warmer than it was supposed to be. But the temperature did drop once the sun went down.
There was a huge crowd today. I think we may have broken a record for attendance. Let's hope so. I guess everyone figured that they better come for a last look before it's another year. They were looking thru the buildings and displays, watching the demo derby, eating lots of different food, playing games, riding the rides, and visiting with friends that they just happened to bump into.
They started to take down some of the none esential things like signs and scenery. They also took the benches and umbrellas that were sitting amoung the rides apart last night.
Things wound down around 11:00 tonight and then everything started coming apart. It took till almost 4:00 am for the Thunder Bolt to be dismantled. Pretty much everything else was done before that with the exception of the Flip 'N' Out. The game stands were being either emptied out and torn down or shut up for the night to be moved out in the morning.
My next report will be posted tomorrow. So check back soon! Until next time, this is your midway reporter signing off.
