My Hometown Water Slide
August 6, 2009
Hey, why wasn’t this there in Grand Rapids, when I was a kid. I thought it looked like so much fun that I had to share this with you all. What a great idea!
I about fell off my chair. I was working and had the news on in the background and I actually heard the name Grand Rapids… Well, we normally don’t hear that over here in CA. But, that is my home town. Well, on Wednesday, August 5, 2009, they had a story about this slide. It was so interesting that I wanted to share this with all of you.
Everyone loves a good Slip-n-Slide during the summer. Nothing says excitement like “10-feet of thrilling movement down a barely wet piece of plastic.” I know, I know. I’m a little too sarcastic sometimes; but it’s people like Rich Haralson that restore my faith in humanity. See, Haralson created the 250-foot Slip-n-Slide “inspired ride” down the side of a hill in Grand Rapids, Michigan that actually is a legit summertime thrill ride.
