At least it's a truly good show though! -
I wouldn't be surprised if for the 2015 season we see a new water slide/attraction for the water park, a full reopen of the dry side of the park, and possibly a small to medium sized new roller coaster. Hard to say for sure though. Well see how things go. But early on my guess is they will heavily invest to bring in more attention to the park. I'm actually very excited about this!

I would love this to happen! Hell I always want to see a park succeed, However this has a lot of hurdles till/if it happens. I wish them the best of luck though! -

Vintage Electric Fan Restoration (Before and After)

^ no prob I'll post more soon! -
So while my main passion are Roller Coasters I do have other interests. However these other interests are just as nerdy! I Love finding and restoring Antique/vintage electric fans! I collect and sell them. So I decided to start uploading my work into this post for the few who might find it interesting. Enjoy BEFORE: This is a Super Lectric Fan. It was manufactured in Cape Girardeau, MO in the 50's It was actually in fairly good condition when I found it. I love the cage on this fan! Luckily Not the most difficult project I've done. AFTER: Seeing Red? While this model never actually came in red I do think it suits it well! The motor is now fully functional. Runs and oscillates perfectly! This beauty should run now for another 60 years!

^ I don't know why but I'm not buying this. Maybe I'm cynical. But I think they are trying to throw us off!
