What do two designing sisters do on their day off?????
Go on the rollercoaster, of course!
I stopped off to spend some time with my sister Theresa LaQuey (of Steampunk pattern fame) after attending the American Sewing Guild conference last week and we went to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and rode the Giant Dipper ... FUN!
The photos they sell are taken at the bottom of the first BIG drop. I was holding on for dear life. Theresa was hanging on to her purse!
The Giant Dipper is one of those old all wooden rollercoasters that rattle. On February 27, 1987, the United States National Park Service recognized the Giant Dipper as a National Historic Landmark.

We also went on the Merry-Go-Round that has an actual brass ring you can throw at a huge clown face. Alas, neither one of us made it into the clown's mouth, which sets off all kinds of fun noises. Theresa got two rings right on the edge of the mouth, but they bounced out ... sigh ... we can design, but not throw so well.
