i have only seen this once, when i was at the now departed Opryland. i was loading wabash cannonball and while going up the lift noticed not wasps , but hornets swarming, not on the lift hill but on the back side of the ride station where the coaster went down the hill and ran along the botton of the station house. when we got to the top before you dropped you could see the nest. after a painfull ride, and 3 stings on me not to mention others on other people. they closed the ride to remove said hornets. it was not nice.

im just overjoyed about this because its the closest park to me besides beech bend and well it will be better soon i hope with them adding a GCI coaster next year. but i have my pass for this year and i will be getting one next thats for sure

OK so, IM a gay guy from Tennessee and i went to Disney world last year 2 times with someone else (also gay and my partner) and wasn't gay day. we had a blast and not once did we grope, or make out or get freaky on its a small world. but i agree straight, gay, BI, or if you like to hump trees, it shouldn't be done in public. period. holding hands is one thing but dry humping is a new ball game. and i say that for the kids as well as for other adults. if i wanted to see porn i would go the book store. as far as gay/stright/bi or other, holding hands and kissing is fine ( no deepthroating). children today need to learn that its OK to love who ever you want. there going to see it one way or another ( nickelodeon's , Degrassi) so it should be a positive way not negative either by seeing some one gay or other wise ,holding hands and kissing not by humping. as well as parents shouldn't say "being like them is wrong" they should say something positive. because how we raise and teach our children today will mold them into who they are as adults. and as a Human i would rather be treated with respect
And someone posted why do gay guys have to be girly well first off my partner is probably one of the butchest men I know (on most days) he fixes cars, and can mow the yard just like another guy or girl for that matter. And IM not one to work on cars but that don't mean IM girly IM just me and you take me for who I am, as I would you.
And in closing I feel that as a gay male in the US that I would more than happily get rid of gay days, pride fest's and every other gay activity that was a special day just for one thing. To be accepted, and to be treated as a human and not as some freak. I love, I bleed and feel like anyone else. And I just want to be respected like everyone else I couldn't care less about gay day as long as I was aloud the = rights (equal rights) that everyone else was.
OK i said my 2 cents

i saved the artwork that was with them it sounds and looks great! the photos you show arnt the same. also it was to help choose a name for the rides. but it looks like it could be great theres also mention of a few other flat rides to be added in as well. which is great because dollywood really dont offer alot of major thrills. thunderhead and tornado are great but for someone that goes like 6 or 7 times a year they just become fun lol. so its exciteing for me i just hope they do like she mentioned in opening day of this year i hope they do build a dollywood 2 or 3 . because talk is that it will be built south of nashville which is where i live yeah rah!

Hello everyone I have some great news for Dollywood. I live in TN so I keep up with the park because its the only one worth keeping up with in Tennessee.
I received some information from Dollywood about choosing names for 2 of the new thrill rides at the park as well as choosing a name for 2 new water slides at the splash park.
From the way the artist drawings and descriptions of the rides I cant wait.
One will be a coaster with twists turns and drops but one drop I like best is a vertical drop, yes that's what I said VERTICAL! The coaster will be based around a mine theme, a haunted mine theme.
the other thrill ride for this section will be a tower ride but not a free fall from description. it described it as a very tall tower designed as a log. just like a free fall or gyro drop the seats face outward and circles the entire log. it rises to the top but then does something never seen before the tower falls no the seats but the whole tower falls from side to side near missing sharp pointy logs and water splashes up on the riders.
Both of these new rides will be added in an expansion behind thunderhead bathrooms. There is also rumors of other rides to be mixed in as well as another new coaster.
also for splash country there will be an addition of 2 new slides, power slides that are straight down like most water parks have

IM not sure where u plan on staying in the Dollywood area but one of my favorites is to rent a cabin I have stayed with a few rental places and they have some great deals on some very nice cabins. And even though Dollywood closes before dark if you feel adventurous in the summer just about everything stays open till the wee hours of the morning. Where else can you play putt-putt at 2 am.
and Ober, is fun if you drive up drive SLOWLY, i have learned that from my own! lol
p.s. and yes i got the chance to ride thunderhead at Christmas time at 8:30pm and it was total darkness, and yes it was 10 times more fun

well i live out side of Nashville, Tennesee. The only thing close is Nashville Valley Amusement Park its a small place has 2 coasters King, and a dragon coaster(kiddie) but my pick for off the beaten path would be beech bend in KY. its a small family owned park and its a nice stop along they way. They have a older Looping Star coaster which i will warn all most of the harnesses do not work but i am still alive so. They are expanding though this year they are adding a spinning wild mouse, and for 2006 they are building a woodie from GCI so can not wait for that one
oh and i agree dollywood is GREAT ! i was just up there last weekend
and you can see some of the new rides from the road in the fair ground section i cant wait just a few more weeks!
-
well i wanted to interject my 2 cents lol
my first coaster was the little rocking roller coaster it was fun
at opryland - i liked the big version ( rockin roller coaster) but it
wasnt untill my aunt tricked me onto wabash cannon ball ( saying it wasnt the ride i thought it was ) that i can
say i was hooked.

i live in nashville and have rode KING the non-kiddie coster lol if i can call it that its fun but i dont know if i would drive out of my way but it makes for a good night out coasters n putt putt, its owned by the same person. nashville shores is ok but save your money and go to dolly's splash country slides are 1000 times better and its not near as small or crowded just my opinion but hey if ya come to town ill be happy to point ya in the right direction . im just excited beech bend in KY is getting a GCI coaster in 2006 WOOT i love GCI thunderhead ROCKS
