Beech Bend Park in Bowling Green, Kentucky

When Bond and I hopped on the Tilt-A-Whirl I asked the ride operator to grab a picture of us figuring she'd take a picture and then go run the ride..  Well she walked back to the console and turned on the ride and started shooting.  She let it run and run and run as she shot.  This photo is at about the point where I had more than enough tilting and whirling.  Thankfully she ended the ride after hearing my pleas.

Who doesn't love a good slide?  Bond and I sure do.

Old slides like these have always been a favorite of mine.  There'd always be one at a carnival that would show up every once in a while in the lot across from my school when I was Bond's age.  After school I'd eventually end up at the carnival and most of my tickets would be spent on the slide.

Just like his old man Bond made a dash up the slide whenever he could and then came speeding on down.
