It's looking like that is a no brainer considering the little birdie's call. Thanks for the info Dave! Post those pics as soon as you can! :)

New review up on TN.

I haven't been able to view the vids yet because they are blocked from my work computer, but it sounds amazing.

Can't wait till the 26th!!!

I'm very excited about this coaster even in light of the Voyage to the north. The Rye Airplane opening is just so classic I love it! And lets not forget, this baby was built by the same guys who put together Thunderhead!

Seems that my review of Voyage got linked in Holiblog. It is one of my better reviews and I have to say that I enjoyed writing it. I hope you folks enjoy it also.

Ted, I think one of us should take the lead on finding a location in BG that will provide the opportunity to get lit after the event on Sunday night.
Sounds good to me. There is always one of the hotel rooms. Maybe we should make it BYOB!
I think we should back it up for Friday and Saturday nights as well! What the hell... 8)

Just an FYI.

On the exit you get off on to go to Beech Bend is also the Corvette National Museum.

If you like cars it's really worth the couple bucks. I think it was something like $5-$6.

You can't miss it. It's a very funky looking building (for KY) I really enjoyed seeing it last year and it doesn't take but about 30 min to an hour to go through.
