A few weeks ago my friend Kristen and I took a mini-trip to Park City for the night. We walked around the main street and checked out all the awesome art galleries and overpriced jewelry shops. Then we really went shopping and hit the outlet mall! I bought some shoes and a few too many kitchen things... and on our way out we saw one of those kids carousels that you see outside grocery stores. Both Kristen and I have always wanted to ride one- so Kristen popped 50 cents in the machine and we were off! There's no time like the present, right?
We were thoroughly enjoying ourselves when the lights around us started to flash on and off. We ignored this and then towards the end of the ride a rather bothered looking security guard came out and told us to get off the horses. We suspect him of turning the lights on and off in attempt to scare us off- and the bothered look he gave us was because we made him leave his nice warm office where he undoubtedly was watching CSI or Law and Order. Sorry Mr Security Guard, but we really had a good time on the Carousel!
Aww, my sister the felon--always living on the edge! :) Did you ask why you had to get off? Isn't your 50 cents just as good as any six year olds? Don't you have as much right to live the dream of riding the carousel horse? OK, maybe I'VE been watching too much Law and Order. :)
ReplyDeletewe actually did question whether he was infringing on our consistutional rights to get our 50 cents worth from the carousel, but we thought it best not to test his patience...
