You are an absolutely thrilling and marvelous writer. In the old-fashioned parlance of print - this was a page turner!
Again, I shared some of your childhood fears - I, too, was petrified of certain rides and anything where it went upside down or spun around and around (I was fine on roller coasters!).
I later learned - after an inner ear infection - that I probably have always had a funky inner ear thing that makes it prudent to avoid spinning around rides or turning upside down too quickly.
Thank you so much, Peggy Jo! Your comment is so kind. And another thing we have in common, aside from our birthday and childhood fear of thrill rides: a funky inner ear thing! It's caused me problems my whole life (especially on airplanes).

Ah to be, pardon the pun, dogged by hapless-turned-happy memories of facing fear. This dark time demands such bravery.
Doggone it, I welcome the punning!
Gah I forgot about that dog story!!! I have pictures of that day!
I do too! I have an amazing picture of you clutching a gallon of water afterwards and some funny/cute pics of us on and near the train tracks.
