I was taught to spit your gum out in the trash and not vandalize or write grafitti on walls because it destroys the park and makes it look bad and dirty.

I was taught better then to vandalize. _________________ Geauga Lake I will miss you!

(course in my lifetime it didn't last long) but I used to play with those when I was real little. I would beg my mom to let me play with the boats. _________________ Geauga Lake I will miss you!

Maybe it was still Sea World at the time. It seems like I remember the boats, but I can't picture where exactly they were. _________________ Always remember Geauga Lake...
