^Nothing else is new besides the paddle boats & the arcade which took the place of the tiger show. You work at GADV? What department? Thanks guys I can't wait to finally ride op! I'll let everyone know how my first offical day goes next week. -

Guess what everyone? I quit my job at Sahara Sam's & got a job as a ride operator at Clementon! I officially start full time next friday the 26th. After that I will have an idea on what area of the park I will spend the most time at. If you ever want to brave HellCat say hi to me if you see me! By the way HellCat is getting retracked on the last turn but it will be open in a few days. I'll keep everyone updated on the ride's status. -

Not everyone keeps track on how many times they ride a certain ride. I'm just that dorky when it comes to coasters At ert sessions with TPR on each run I hold a finger up on how many times I ride that coaster during the hour. After 10 runs I put it in my phone or if we have to walk around the entrance to get back on I just do it each time. Surprisingly being this organized with my coaster counting actually helps me keep organized in school. I even keep track of the theme parks I visit each year & the order I visit them with the date & I give a little summery of the day next. For example I go under my 2009 Amusement Park section & write: 6/12: Clementon Park: 1 coaster/3 runs. Then I will go to my 2009 Roller Coasters section, find HellCat, & write 3 tally marks. It is a routine after every trip I do. Here are some pics of my coaster binder: My coaster binder. Unfortunately that is the best I can draw The coasters I rode most. Amusement parks that I visited in 2009 with dates. The roller coasters I rode so far in 2009 & how many times & the order I rode them. I have 2 pages already!

Stratosphere's New 'Ride'

I love heights! I must do this -
Since I am one of those coaster dorks who actually keeps track of how many times I've ridden a roller coaster (I use my notes in my phone & each time I ride a ride put it in) today I opened up my binder & did some calculations. I started doing this in 2005 so I've obviously ridden Nitro & Steel Force a lot more. Here are the top 8 coasters that I've ridden most & their count. Oh & I AM 100% accurate: 1. HellCat=134x 2. Nitro=82x 3. Phoenix=78x 4. Kingda Ka=70x 5. Great White (morey's piers)=68x 6. El Toro=53x 7. Skull Mountain=52x 8. Steel Force=41x

^That rain was scary at are day. I've lived here for 19 years & never saw a storm that bad. I don't think any of us wanted another Ravine Flyer II ert session. -
I paid for parking at Clementon Park yesterday for $8.

Nice pics & TR. I might be going to KI for the first time in 2 weeks & can't wait. If I go it will be on a Wednesday so hopefully the lines won't be crowded. -

^^It is basically the same as last year. According to what I heard HellCat's trains have been refurbished. It didn't feel like that today I got a tip from the friend who works there & he said the Clementon Park sky line could change next year! -
