Maybe this has been flying under the radar. My mom emailed me the news link to this. Not alot of details as to WHAT type of ride package this new theme park is getting. But from the looks of it its going to be really REALLY big. Earth Quest Adventures will be built in New Caney, Texas, just north of Houston. Its projected opening date is sometime in 2013. Ground broke on the site on September 1st. The first phase is 550 acres, including a theme park, water park, hotel, dining, shopping, etc. Check out the local ABC network affiliate weblink and see for yourself!

I can't wait for this thing to really get under way; it's so exciting!! It's been in the works since 2006. The original concept of the park was supposed to be finished this year, but when the economy took a nosedive, it seemed like the park did too. But, they re-worked the whole idea, and it went from being a dino-themed park/museum to a amusement resort.

 

I'm absolutely hopeful that the park will come to fruition since I live literally five minutes away from where it's going to be built. I mean, imagine, an amusement park/resort right here in Hooterville!! Woo-hoo!!
