Awesome pics as always Hanno! That was an awesome day! I'm in some of your pics as well: pic 13, 40 & 42

Fixed. Whatever I'm not going to argue.

I hope you guys had fun in ORLANDO on your annual Halloween trip. Nice updates.

The Alpine Coaster at Jiminy Peaks Mountain Adventure park in Hancock, MA on Saturday. It was most likely my last coaster ride of the year & my 304th credit!

^Well the Alpine Slide was closed so I couldn't tell you. The Alpine Coaster had a top speed of a incredibly fast 26 mph lol.

I've been to Haunt at Dorney a few weeks ago & on Saturday a place called Massacre Mansion in upstate NY. It was acceptable for $15 but the actors were basically local teens with little to no experience. Here is the link: http://www.massacremansion.com/gallery.htm

The Alpine Mountain coaster at Jiminy Peaks Mountain Adventure park on Saturday. This is most likely my last coaster of the year.

Photo TR: A Mountain Adventure October 23, 2010 This past weekend some friends & I headed up to Bearsville, NY to enjoy a nice relaxing weekend up in the mountains where my family lives. I live near Philly so it was about a 4 hour drive. We left Friday night the 22nd & got there around 11:30 pm & started up a campfire. On Saturday we hung out around my grandparent's farm & hiked up to a log cabin I own & shot some guns. We shot a 21 gauge shotgun & a 22"rifle. We did that for about an hour then hit the road to try & find something fun to do. This is where the roller coaster comes in. We drove about an hour & a half to Jiminy Peaks Mountain Adventure Park to ride an Alpine Slide (but the Alpine Slide was closed ) & an Alpine Mountain coaster. The coaster was listed on coaster counter http://www.coastercounter.com/#Massachusetts_USA so I counted it as my 304th credit, yay It was a pretty unique coaster. It was a one person car, but you can fit a small child in your lap. There were two handles on the car, one on each side. You would push them forward to go fast & pull them back to slow down. A cable pulled you up the mountain & then you enjoy a nice relaxing, & in my case speedy, ride down the mountain & threw the woods. I wanted to film on it but you weren't able to so I only was able to snap a few pics. I'm not so sure if I should count this as a credit but check out the pics & I would be interested in your opinion on this. After the mountain coaster we hit the road again & headed back to my grandparent's farm. On the way there we stopped off at a Halloween attraction called Massacre Mansion. It was well decorated & cheap to visit but the actors were pretty much local teens with no experience. It was only $15 so I'm not complaining. Here is a link to the site: http://www.massacremansion.com/gallery.htm The rest of the night we just chilled around the campfire & headed home Sunday afternoon. Thanks for reading & enjoy the pics! This is probably my last TR of the year. I had a great season & I hope you did as well. I already can't wait for next year! Roadtrip! Campfire awesomeness! My log cabin. Yay we got to play with guns lol! Watch out b!t*h@s I got a shot gun! Me chilling in my cabin. Ok off to Jiminy Peaks Mountain Adventure Park in Hancock, MA! A pic of the map. Bonus credit! Park index love! Here is a pic of the car. Another pic of the car. One more coaster pic. A pic of the area. Thanks for reading!

^Yup & season 2 starts in April which is when this episode will air.

Photo TR: Six Flags Great Adventure October 15, 2010 This is most likely was my last trip if the year so I thought I would make a small PTR. Yeah it's been a while A few days ago I received an email asking me if I would like to be a part of a film shoot for the Travel Channel show 'Bert The Conqueror'! I had a choice of Kingda Ka, El Toro, or both which was the coasters they were filming for the show. I could only attend the El Toro shoot because I had a college class in the morning (when the Kingda Ka shoot was) so I signed up for the El Toro shoot in the afternoon. Believe it or not this cost absolutely nothing to attend I did not expect that from Six Flags & was very impressed that I could bring a guest & not pay a dime to get in the park! I actually watch 'Bert The Conqueror' so I was excited to get a chance to be on the show! I got to the park around 1 p.m. since the shoot for El Toro started around 1:30. We rode El Toro 3x before the film crew got set up. Bert was a pretty cool dude. Really entertaining. After the 3rd ride the camera crew started setting up their cameras. It took about 20 minutes. It was cold outside so it felt a lot longer. The film crew picked some little 10 year kids & their family to ride with Bert & we rode 3 more times. After they got the shots of Bert on the ride that they wanted we rode 4 more times so the crew could get off ride shots. We did a lot of sitting around & the entire shoot lasted until about 4:45 p.m. So I got to ride El Toro 10x in a row After the shoot we were aloud to stay & enjoy the park. It was cold & I had to watch the Yankees game in the ALCS so my friend & I didn't stay long. We decided to hit Bizarro & were the first guests of the day on it. We were the only ones on the ride & sat in the front & the ride operators let us have the train to ourselves again in the back! After Bizarro we went over & rode Skull Mountain 2x in a row in the last car without getting off! Nitro was out last ride & we walked right on in a middle row then got one final ride in the back row. My 2010 coaster season possibly ended on Nitro in the last seat I had a great year & if I can't get out to another park this year my 2011 season will start early in Disney World in January. Thanks for reading & enjoy the few pics I took. Sorry for the different sizes but I only had my Blackberry which doesn't take that great pics. Nothing to see here, keep moving along please. 10x in a row today! The film crew. It's Bert The Conqueror! I need a hair cut lol. 2x in the row after the shoot! Once in the front, once in the back! another ride I rode 2x in a row without getting off! Nitro was most likely the last ride of the year for me!

Nitro in the back seat earlier today Most likely my last ride of the year

Awesome announcement! The ZacSpin's trains look amazing

A night ride on Steel Force at Dorney Park during Haunt yesterday (Saturday)
