Wow, what a great day at Dorney! They really put together an awesome day and they were very helpful. They also asked how next year they could make it even better. Doing this is something that is great for others while getting together with others who have the same passion. Meet a lot of new great people and everyone was very friendly, also got to spend time with a few people I haven't seen in awhile. The highlight was the mom who's child went to Florida and thanked us for raising the money. You could see she was holding back tears. Can't wait for next year!

^ I'm proud of my small coasterless state

Mostly on Tuesday Delaware will pass Marriage Equality! They already allow civil union but hopefully on Tuesday it's called Marriage like it should be. Fingers crossed!!

I'm hoping its not too tame because I have to say last years first ride on it was AMAZING. I have never been so "OMG this thing is going to throw me out of my seat" ever which I loved. When my daughter rode it (she isn't a huge coaster fan ) she just screamed "DADDY DADDY" the whole time. I rode it 5 times that day because I knew the following year it would be tamed down due to people complaining. "I'll always have SKYRUSH 2012" -
Hahah Andrea laughing was pretty great and her "come on you guys". This season has picked up and I'm loving it'

*Cough* yes!! I can't wait and this year I've gone above last year. I'm focused now after a rough 2013 start so I should be raising my amount. This will also be my first park of the year most likely since my kitchen remodel has taken up more funds then I planned! BTW work blocked TPR! Which why posting on here is rare now ugh!

So I found these photos at my parents a few years ago, they are from June 26th 1974! Comet is not white and I'm not sure if I have ever seen a photo of the Twin Toboggans. View from the Skyway The Giant Wheel! Trailblazer! Furry Friends? Twin Toboggans! Two next to each other. Never got to ride one and hear I'm not missing out. Comet with The Rotor which was one of my favorite flats! -
TPR 2013 Tours Announced!

Such a tease!! After two amazing years I'm not going to make a 2013 trip but I'm saving up for that awesome 2014 one that's being mentioned! I'm hoping a Bash will be at one of the parks during Midwest and Ill be able to swing that! -
2012-- What was your highlight?
deguy123 replied to Chroniq's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
2012 coaster wise was great! *LeviaTHON including the amazing ride on the SLC(yes!!) at Darien Lake in the pouring rain & Niagara Falls at Midnight on the first night plus many many other things during the trip. *Also can't not mention Gay night at Six Flags riding Eltoro at Midnight 5 times in a row! -
Maine was great news also because they had marriage equality and then those "prop 8 people" came and it ended up being taken away in 2009. I took part in phone calls then and was upset when it was banned. It's great to see 4 laws passed for equality with the people voting!

^ Ugh never got as far as the shower but have almost a few time:-) I really can't stand when someone makes a statement and you know it's not true but you'll look crazy if you say something. So you just have to go on and keep your mouth shut! Somehow I have that type of control, it's actually amazing I do.

Went to the park last night for Six Flags Out at the Park event and it was a great night. The park was open until midnight and had some pretty awesome night rides on El Toro and Nitro. I have to say I was pretty shocked all the rides were open for the most part. The only coaster that was closed was the left side of Rolling Thunder. The Twister was very boring and even the ride operator admitted it, this is only my second one with the first being at Canada's Wonderland. Also Sky Screamer scared the crap out of me, after riding Windseeker at Wonderland I would pick Sky Screamer!

2013 TPR Tour Questionnaire is out!
deguy123 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I really like the MidWest Trip but with vacation time (Plus with my ex-wife having to "watch" my daughter for LeviaTHON being such a big deal) I'm thinking Mexico could be the one! All the trips sound great and I'm really hoping to do another next year. Anyone who hasn't been on a trip please trust them, they know what they are doing -

I'm pretty sure on the Leviathon Trip it was mentioned that the maintenance guy from Dragon Mountain is a member on here and looks at the website daily. -

I completely feel you there. I really tried to put my hands up but I seriously thought I'd be thrown into the water! My daugther isn't a huge coaster fan but she got on it because it didn't have loops and she was just screaming "DADDY DADDY". I told her if she could do that and like it, she could do anything! -

^ I'm thinking it would fit but I'm sure they are going to put more slides in then just that complex. Right now they only have 4 slides I think and that area just needs more then a mat racer. Can't wait to see what they add, even if they update the waterpark next year. I still think they overlooked or just didn't care that they stuck a waterpark where it's going to be hard to expand. Canyon River Rapids i still miss you -
No way me too! I had a feeling you might have switched though I hope everything works out for you! I hate hearing about the fear of people coming out. I can see where it might be harder for you to come out after your sister but at least you know you mom is still talking to your sister. She will eventually come around and accept you both for who you are. Being gay and having a kid, it most likely would. Although I couldn't imagine my life without my daughter even as she is going to be a teenager next year and driving me insane!
