Six Flags' Magic Mountain
Santa Clarita

We started out the road trip by stopping at
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, to
pick up a hat that lost-and-found was holding
from our recent visit. And we ended
the drive with a stop at Six Flags Magic Mountain,
where Jen had her very first job when she was 16, handing out churros
and dancing to Oingo Boingo. There, the daughters
got to ride the world's first roller coaster
with a 360-degree loop, The Revolution-- tame by
today's standards, but still a pretty good thrill.
We also got a chance to stop by The Timbermill,
the old restaurant where Jen was a waitress when
I met her at UCLA. I was so smitten in those first
weeks that I drove out to Magic Mountain from
Westwood one afternoon and paid for park admission
just so I could sit in her section and watch her
while I studied.
