What I did this summer.

A1. What did you do this summer?

                When the school year ended last June, I thought this summer would be just another in a long line of boring, uneventful summers. However it actually turned out to be one of the best. Just after school had ended, the carnival came to town. Although it was not as good as it was in previous years, I still had a great time. I rode rides and hung out with my friends.  The next week I went to a fourth of July party. There was good food and a lot of fireworks to play with. There wasn’t much to do for a couple of weeks after that. I worked on roofs with my dad from time to time, but that was about it until football started. Starting in mid-August, I would go to football. The practices were long, but rewarding. They normally went from four o’clock in the afternoon until eight o’clock. Having four hour practices were rewarding in that it gave me a sense of pride and accomplishment. To finish off the summer, I went on a trip with my family to Ohio to go to Cedar point and to see the Yankees play the Indians. It took over four hours to drive there. While I was at Cedar Point I had the chance to ride some of the biggest and fastest roller coasters. I rode the Top Thrill Dragster, a roller coaster that in four seconds will accelerate from zero to 120 miles per hour, take you up 420 feet at an eighty degree angle and send you hurtling toward the ground. That was by far the best ride there. Among the other rides I rode were the Millennium Force, the Magnum and the Mean Streak. After two days at the amusement, we went to Cleveland to see the Yankees and Indians play. The Yankees, unfortunately, did not end up winning the game. They Lost 3-0. Aside from that I had a great trip and an overall awesome summer.
