More pitchers, y'all!

 

I screwed up with the first batch and mislabled one of the Big Dipper pictures. The first coaster photo is actually the Little Dipper.

 

Answers to a couple of questions:

 

The cattails and tall grass are gone from around the log flume. Must've been attractin' vermin.

 

The new Larson scooters are operating but we didn't bother riding them. We haven't had much success with them in other parks.

The West Virginia Grille. An air-conditioned cafeteria-style place to eat. Sadly, we couldn't find much there that we wanted to eat.

The Leaning Engine That Could. N'at Man said there used to be a pen full of barking dogs along the train route but they're gone now.

Haunted House. Borg counts this as a coaster. I bet Jeff Johnson does too.

More of the fabulous midway. All that blacktop in 95+ degree heat is awesome!

We were going to stop at Camden during our stay in Huntington on Sunday night, but instead had a family cookout.

 

// Now I know ... you are REALLY scared!

 

Ted, thanks for saving me a Williams Grove flashback...You know how much I loved that little PA park!

 

And I need to mention that we actually live in the northern panhandle of WV between Ohio & Pennsylvania, so we're definitely closer to Pittsburgh and Cleveland than Huntington.

 

Makes me proud to say that Kennywood is my home park! And even Cedar Point is closer than Camden Park!
