I went to the park solo once.  It was a couple of weeks before our wedding that was at the Wilderness Church.  I had been in Branson to practice my "wedding hair" with the stylist and to take care of a few other details.  I went to SDC with my up-do still in place.  I walked all over the park, and then decided I was hot.  I thought I'd ride American Plunge.  I thought I would be in a boat with someone else, but the ride wasn't very busy, so they weren't putting people in the same boat who weren't together.  So, I rode by myself.  It was a little weird being alone in the boat--lol.

Two years ago, my family was staying at Deer Run at Christmas time.  We had been at the park all evening and went back to the motel.  The park was open until 11:00 that night, so my husband and I left our daughter with my mother-in-law, and we hopped a bus back to the park from the nearby SDC parking lot.  It was odd, I suppose, that everyone else was getting off the bus, and we climb on.  We walked a near-empty park for an hour with our hot chocolate in hand.  We saw maybe five other guests in the park that hour.  Not a solo story, but it was a great memory.

I can't imagine being with a large group at SDC.  When I go I'm usually with no more than 3 people.  It works out best when it's just my sister and I.  We can most of the time agree on what we want to do in the park.
