PortugePunk Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 This will be quite brief as I just wanted to share some photos with ya'll. Attended the 7th Annual Coaster Solace at Knott's yesterday. There were nowhere near as many people in attendance as I had expected. I didn't even see any other coaster fans until I reached Montezooma's Revenge. The park was absolutely eerie. I kept expecting an employee to ask what I thought I was doing. Weather was freezing and rain kept threatening, but we escaped downpours (at least during the day - I took off around 12 or 1). Park still looks as beautiful as I remembered and the employees tend to be fairly friendly - although I have to admit they didn't seem to pleased that they had to operate the rides for us coaster geeks so early in the a.m., but I wouldn't be either. They warmed up after the first hour or two. When the park opened at 10, the ride ops on Silver Bullet were really energetic and enthusasistc. Was great to see. They were happy that we were there and excited to ride. Overall a good experience. Anybody else snap any good pics? xcelerator xcelerator xcelerator note it's with an empty train - early morning test runs xcelerator happy bullet riders happy bullet riders empty midway @ xcelerator.
