    You and I just missed each other at CGA! I went on July 2nd and then again on the evening of July 4th for fireworks (having spent the first part of the day at Gilroy Gardens). Going to CGA before it closed was a suggestion by my husband, and thatīs the whole reason we did any California parks for the
    first time this year. We only ended up doing three on our trip: CGA, Gilroy, and Santa Cruz (which was a longtime ambition finally realized for me). We
    did not go to Discovery Kingdom as I usually donīt patronize marine parks
    or non-AZA-accredited zoos, but I admit it hurt to deliberately pass up all
    the coasters there, especially since Iīm sitting just below 300 in my
    coaster count (which I realize is peanuts to you and many others, but represents many years in the hobby for me).
