So I drove up to Conneaut for a few hours today. We are closing the cottage Monday so it was the last time of the year I would get to go. I met up with my mom to walk through Conneaut Lake Park. It's sad how things have changed over the years there. I can't believe it's still even open. So many memories as a child there!
There is a really cool haunted house (though I didn't get to go this year) and a festival with a ton of different (horrible for you) foods and crafts booths among booths that have so much junk in them you can't help to stop to look. I really love the homemade craft booths. I bought a ton of handmade soaps for the dogs (they make them with flea and tick repellent) and then I bought some pumpkin spice soaps for me along with homemade deodorant. I always get really giddy over that stuff. The ladies were so nice working there too- I got their cards and hope to shop with them again: Nichole's Natural Notions is where I got the deodorant but the lady that sold the dog soaps does not have a website yet. I did get her email though for orders if I want to get more! We also bought soup mix and dip mixes. I can't wait to try the Raspberry Fruit Dip mix! The soups come in a bag with the noodles and all of the ingredients. You really just add water in a big pot. I can't wait to try it.
The old Barbra Jay
These guys were actually really good and played some awesome old covers.
Conneaut lake hotel where the haunted house is.
The pumpkin drop where they drop a huge pumpkin onto a car. There is countdown and everything. It was packed!
Amish Donuts the size of your head.
The Blue Streak was up and running. I don't know how and I don't think I'd ride it but it was cool to see it going.
This a bit later when they dropped the pumpkin.
My amazing mother.
My mom bought me these today. I loved the purse and the scarf! She hurried up and grabbed them and bought them for me!! She loves to spoil me. Really. She made my day! I've had a really hard week and this truly cheered me up. They make me smile so much!
On another note: where have I been!? This band. This amazing, amazing band! My life is forever changed. I listened to their songs on the hour and a half ride up to Conneaut and couldn't wait to hear them again on the way back. I LOVE TWENTY ONE PILOTS!
OH the talent! <3
