I'm bringing my wife tomorrow for Mother's Day.  Anyone else going to be there?

You and several thousand of your closest "friends" -- I'd expect a busy day tomorrow.  Nowhere near the record levels of last Saturday (It was over 29000) but it will be busy with it being "Rhonda Vincent Saturday" at the park.

Your only saving grace might be the fact that it is graduation weekend for a lot of area schools - but I don't think it will shave too many people off the attendance.

Actually, the crowd was not too bad at all--I have seen MUCH worse.  There were several school bands there and quite a few Moms, but no real crowding. 

The longest lines I saw were for the Lost River, but even those weren't spilling over into the area by the Riverfront Playhouse.

It was hot, and maybe the new ride soaked up part of the crowd.  Dunno, but it was really a pleasant day.

Thats good for you..  I was surprised at the low number.. I kinda expected 12-15,  but lower numbers makse a better day for you.. Grats!!

I'm looking to get a quick trip to the City on Tuesday.  That's a prediction of rain if'n I ever heard one.

Showboat show was fairly good in my opinion. Lots of singing and dancing. Was hoping for a bit more comedy and magic mixed in though. They don't serve pink lemonade any more and my wife didn't like that.  She said the food wasn't as good as year's past. She did not like the chicken, said it had a weird taste.
