"I'm flying!"

Today we took Sammy to the Olmsted Fair midway so he could get his first taste of amusement rides. He seemed to really enjoy it, especially the rides where he was able to "fly."

"Oh, I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts.
There they are all standing in a row.
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head.
Give 'em a twist, a flick of the wrist."
That's what the showman said.

Sammy was heard to say...
"I'm flying!"

Some things are still made in America...
...ironically it is a Chinese style roller-coaster...
