Only thing that was said was the date and those banners with the date. Nothing exciting but I did not stay for the whole thing. I am sure you folks that did miss it will get a bunch of pics by late saturday I would guess.

One of my friends visited the park today and saw 2 large flat bed trucks leaving the park. One of them was by the entrance of the construction zone down by south gate. Perhaps it means something perhaps it doesn't, he said the straps on the back were loose as if something was just pulled off. This tells me it had JUST dropped something off, the truckers before most transit usually tighten down all straps and loose entity before long haul leaving.

Did any of you guys go to the park earlier today and see anything?



That would be my post. 8) Good sir. I love walking along the fenced off area where allowed and along the in park fencing before the "Guess what we are doing " holes lol. Seeing construction is always a treat to me.

Your friend sounds like someone who over analyzes stuff...we know construction is going on, we know things are being brought to and taken away from the site until your friend actually "sees" something worth posting i think it should be kept, inside his/her mind...

I mean hey, I was at the park yesterday and I heard loud booming noises like something was being thrown into a dumpster...could that mean something?!?!?

Oh boy, here comes another crystal ball guess layout with the precise stats and all...the same thing that happen to christmas is happening to this new "ride"...its being ruin!

I stayed 17 hours at the park yesterday. When I walk, it feels like i'm walking on nails. That's how bad my feet hurt. Jarvis is the coolest person ever. :D He asks the best questions. :lol:

And yes there was stuff up at coasterstock that involved the new coaster for next year. 8) We know what the theme of it will be.

I don't know if this was mentioned or not, but rebar is starting to go in on several of the footers on the log flume site. They'll fill it in with concrete and let it set for a few weeks. After that, supports can start going up. Let me just say that some of those footers are going to be huge. :shock:

Coasterstock was fantastic, luckily my feet dont hurt as bad as I though they would... I did get a headache from riding the hurler and thunder road so many times, but it was worth it! I cant wait to see what kind of event they put together next year.... Anyway here are a couple of pics I got just in case you want to see more of whats going on (I know most of you that went probaly already saw)
