I've been going to SDC for over twenty years, and yesterday I had an experience that was similar than those before, but it was also very unique. I haven't felt this strongly about it in a long time. I had to say it somewhere, so I came here because I know you'll understand.
Thank God this place exists. Seriously. Yesterday in the park I had to just stop myself and think about how wonderful a place this really is. It's unlike anywhere else in the world, at least the world I come in contact with and hear about in the news every day. We still have a place where God is naturally celebrated, unapologetically worshiped, out there in the open air public for all to see. There is still a place where people care about family values. As one mother said, our family is just "better" when we come to SDC. The best part about it is, amongst all the lights, smiling employees, shows, preachin'...it's all REAL. It's not fabricated, faked, or awkwardly created. This park is what it is, and it doesn't give a damn what the politically correct might think.
To me, that's refreshing.
So let's all take a moment to stop worrying about the new rides, the banter about the pros and cons about the food, the types of passes and the weather, and reflect on the magical place we have found here and thank God it still exists.
I'll give a full review at a later date. Thanks for reading my little rant.
