Rick's Pizza

Rick's Pizza is located in Rensselaer, Indiana.  My first memory of eating there was the fall of 1987 with my dad and friend Aaron Gutwein.  After that date, my dad took my family to Rick's Pizza throughout my growing up years.  My brother Josh thinks it is the best pizza ever.  I also think it is some of the best pizza.  Rick's pizza isn't the biggest place but has several booths if you want to dine in.  The majority of the customers pick up their pizza or have it delivered.  There are a number of reasons why Rick's Pizza is the most unique pizzeria I have ever been to.  Number one, only Rick makes the pizza.  No other employees make the pizza.  Usually, Rick will toss up the pizza crust while he makes each pizza.  Number two, you can watch your pizza being made in a clean environment.  Number three, the setting is very nostalgic.  You can play video games from the 1980's, watch shows on his old computer if you dine in.  The old computer has a 3.5 floppy disk drive.  You don't see those everyday.  If you want a unique pizza eating experience please try Rick's Pizza.  The address is 494 N Van Rensselaer St, Rensselaer, IN 47978.  If you call Rick might even answer the phone and take your order.  Please see the pictures to see this unique pizzeria.  

Bittersweet snow skiing

We went snow skiing near Ostego, Michigan at Bittersweet snow skiing on Saturday, February 24th.  There was hardly no snow on the ground besides where they made snow on the hills.  With the warmer weather the conditions were really good for them making the snow.  See the pictures.  We arrived at Bittersweet around 9:50am and got on the slopes by around 10:45 am.  I have my own skis but my wife and 2 daughters rent their ski and snowboards so that took awhile.  We skied until around 5 pm and then went home.  I could have skied a couple more hours but everyone else was tired.  Snow skiing is one of my top 5 hobbies.  

 

Splash mountain in Disney World

My family and I were at Disney world's magic kingdom last Wednesday, August 16th.  I knew that Splash Mountain had closed back in February.  I was very disappointed in not being able to ride it. You can see from the pictures I took the only remnants left of Splash Mountain is some briars.  The penny coin machine, statue, and signs are all gone.  They should not have taken out Splash Mountain and replace it with Tianna's Bay.  They could have kept Splash Mountain and built Tianna's Bay somewhere else on the property.  I will take a good guess that Splash Mountain would have had more people than Tianna's Bay. The top picture shows us when we there in 2016. Well it was nice to see a little bit of Splash Mountain.  The woke police won that battle.
