now back to your regularly scheduled photo tr. Paratrooper Tiger Sign below coaster track, is this for a coaster? loco sumo Boat action again loco sumo Splash Battle Sky Coaster Lake swing Falling star Splash Battle car. How many credits in this picture, and I didn't realize how much is packed into this little area. boat on the lake, a little bit about me, if I am not at a theme park, I would rather be boating, so allot of boat pictures.

First set of photos, came from my video camera, so they aren't that great. Photos off my dslr will come later, haven't even downloaded them yet! . Pirate Princess or jail bait if she isn't old enough, but she looks old enough. giggity giggity giggity. I would have had a better picture but was saving battery and had to boot up. IB Went on the lake cruise adn seen this, when I win the lottery, my house on a lake will have a boat dock like this. Breakfest, yum. -

I rode some awesome bumper cars at IB, they were fast and when you hit, it bumped you, unlike hw where when you hit, unless it is at full speed, it is a tap. I would love to see a smaller dive coaster, but that will never happen. -

lol @ you two! FYI, the area that is being moved is behind Gobbler Getaway with a open field between the two. I wonder if they are adding a second entrance. -

doh. I just thought when they said 17 coasters, it means 17 full size coasters. I was cooking dinner, pictures are still coming, still on memory cards. Guess I will be trying to make it down to Beach Bend, maybe I should have rode lost coaster, but heard it is really ruff. -
Went in and got what I expected on some and more on on coaster. Hoosier Hurricane: Good airtime, Comforable seats, 4/5 Ears of Corn Cornball Express: I rode HH first and I expected the same type of ride! Boy was I wrong! This ride delivered plus some. So much airtime with ejector Air. 5/5 Galaxy: What I would expect from looking at the pics. Nice ride, little pops of air 3/5 Tiger: I love the inline seating, major air and without restraints, sorta scary. 5/5 Flat rides Lake Swings: Talk about interesting, flying over the lake was neat, still prefer HW's swings 4/5 Paratrooper: First time riding one of these, I can do some kind of going in a circles, but this had me sorta sick at points. The interesting part was when the seat went forward and seemed like you would hit the top. 4/5 Double Shot: 3 out of seat times, I love it. HW's double shot tower is not my favorite anymore. 5/5 Dr. Frankeinstien's castle: Extra pay with pop band dark walk through. It sure was dark, scenes were nicely themed. And it was long, well worth the 3.50. 4/5 The dark shooter ride (forgot name): I like the two level kind. I still suck at shooting targets. 5/5 Pirates water show: The parts I watched were good. The girl pirate was hot, but probably taken or too young. They need to tell you were they splash at. The jet ski got me! And my camera. It still works though. I did not ride Lost coaster, but I give the outside a 4/5 on theming. Now my coaster count is at 33, which leaves me set up for Cedar Point in Sept. My last coaster there will be 50! As for Pictures, those will be up tonight, video will be up Monday when I goto work and have access to a good editor.

Thank you all for the help. I didn't get IB's flyer to snap, but only halfway try due to the no snapping sign on the ride.

What are some of you thinking your local park will add next year. Last time I was at Holiday World, I seen some dirt being moved right next to the employee parking, this could either be part of a expansion or just more parking. I personally hope for more rides in Thanksgiving and another slide or water attraction. Also, at Six Flags St. Louis, some other boards are talking about the old Fair Grounds section being turned into a Wiggles World or Thomas the Tank area.

Photo TR: TPR Mini Europe Trip (my first TPR Trip)
spaceace12 replied to Hhappy's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I debated buying that camera because it was cheaper, but I went with the d70s because of the pictures I seen other people produce. Next I want to buy a d200, but that is years away, i want a 400-800mm lens next (which with my camera would be a 650 to 1200mm with the digital stuff added in). Nice pictures too. -
am I annoyign or something, no one ever replies to my threads. Especially the ones where I am asking for advice.

Elissa's Random Thought of the Day!
spaceace12 replied to SharkTums's topic in Random, Random, Random
Actually two, Central in some parts of northern and southern indiana. And eastern for others. -
That is me. I did get a bogey on Sunday on a par 3. I was happy, other than that, my ball always goes some other direction that straight.

I went for the second time in my life today! shot a 64 on a 28 par 9 holes. Plus a couple, like 5 do overs. I did sink a 20 foot putt, I was shocked! I like scramble style better, I bring in my friend who plays and he is usually on my team, easy way to get past any hazards. I did have a couple good swings, but I missed the ball when I had those. Any good stories.
