I got sick the day before the very last day, so my my dad took my sister on the last day. I was soooo envious! 😑 😄

I know my folks enjoyed it various ways, too. Plus enjoying watching us having fun.

My dad did lightening. Pretty sure he liked looking at the various night time lighting of the pavillions.
