My favorite place was screamin wheels from the time I was able to go I enjoyed myself seeing all my friends from school. It was a place where you go and skate and dance all night the times were 3pm to 7pm or 8pm to 12pm , the best part was going to McDonald’s afterwards. I missed these days I wish my kids got a chance to experience what I did as a child.
