After my nerve wracking experience walking the Ghostly Gangplank Keith and Fred, who are old coaster friends of ours took us to the Twin Cities Steak House for a really wonderful meal.  I highly suggest it as it's only a few steps from the park (go under the Ferris Wheel out into the mall and take a right), it's nice and quiet and the food was awesome.  It was great place to chat and for me to calm down.  Besides the older I get I love more than riding coasters is getting the chance to sit down with some of the great friends that I have met through this hobby and just have some fun chatting and hanging out.



It hade been a while since Bond and I competed at shooting ghosts so after dinner and Keith, Fred and Jerry took off we headed for a ride on the Ghost Blasters.



Shoot-em-up dark rides like Ghost Blasters are fun and they offer me a chance to whoop Bond's butt at something.  The sad thing is I only have a few more years then he'll be the one whooping my butt on these as he figures out how to shoot.



For the rest of the evening we spent our time just going from ride to ride getting as much as we could knowing that we still had months of winter left to go until the real season kicked off.
