Why Age Should Never Stop You From Doing The Things You Love

There I was on a warm summer morning at Cedar Point, waiting in line to go on Millennium Force, the 310-foot Giga Coaster.

I looked upward at this massive coaster as we moved closer to the arrival/departure station. I took a closer look at the people ahead of me, and I saw an older man. He was walking a bit slower than the rest of us and was looking to get on the Millennium Force.

It wasn’t like he was waiting in line with his grandson or anything like that. He was going to ride this beast of a rollercoaster.
