Our next park, that Sunday, was Conneaut Lake Park. But on thinking it over and how I want to organize all this trip report, well ... It's so hard to believe that I intend to skip over it, to report on Waldameer and our drive home, before returning to Conneaut Lake Park because it is surely the crown jewel of our experience and it will make everything after a sorry anticlimax. It deserves this special attention. I promise.
( What convenience store did we stop at despite my misgivings? Did we pay for parking? Why was our cash no good at Waldameer? Where's the antique carousel? The answers may surprise you! )So Waldameer seems to be that weird exceptional (unique?) park that actually managed the trick of turning the sale of its crown jewels into long-term survival. You never see that. Pennsylvania parks are a weird breed.
