WOW!  Must have had my eyes closed.  I don't even remember it, but it looked cool!  When we started visiting the park again, it was usually during the Thanksgiving - Christmas time of year, so if it was there it was probably closed.  SDC lured us back when my son was deployed and we couldn't face holidays w/o him. My daughter suggested our return to SDC and...it's been that way ever since!

That was fun to watch! I don't remember Buzz Saw Falls - which is weird.  There was about a 10 yr. period of time when we spent vacations traveling out west.  What years was it in operation?

I would definitely miss it!  I've been watching it since I was a little kid.

I bet you can talk her into it, Tiff.  You seem like a fine, responsible young lady!  Make good on your promises to mom.  Maybe you can talk her into a trial period to see how it works out.  Keep us posted.

Thanks, everyone!  It's a trade off for staying healthy, so I'm all for it.  Whatever it takes for quality of life and frequent visits to the park works for me.

Shave, you are right!  I have a friend that was diagnosed just a month ago, and now me.  That's scary!  I thought I did a good job of eating "gluten free" yesterday, and...then I looked online and realized I blew it!  Food additives must be looked at carefully to make sure they don't contain gluten.  The first thing I did when I got home was look up SDC's menus.  The only thing Delilah's offers is prepackaged Lays potato chips!  BUMMER!  I will just have to learn to bake gluten free and enter the park with my own snacks, cuz I ain't given' up my cup of coffee and smellavision at Delilahs.

OH! NO! I was just diagnosed with celiac disease - no more gluten for me!  HUH???  WHAT???  No more cinnamon bread???  Forever??  BLASPHEMY!  IMPOSSIBLE!  OH GEEZ!  Oh well, I can still use my smellavision.  That will do.

Injun Joe and Trams - that's too funny!  That was my first thought, also:  Miss Tiffany, get that room cleaned up!  Trams is right on this one!  See if you can make a deal with mom.  Keep us posted.

Yep, I think I would put one of those tram cars in my backyard if I could.

Me - Lumber Camp Falls for skillet bowls
       Wagon Works Grill during the fall/winter season - there's nothing like sitting outside in the cold near a gas heater with a big bread bowl full of soup.

Hubs - Ribhouse
          Mine Restaurant

We both agree that the Mine has the coolest atmosphere, and we MUST always stop at Delilah's for coffee and a cinnamon roll to start the day.

I would love to put my teacher skills to work during the Kids Fest!  I would also like to work at the turnstiles.  I have my greeting prepared, and I practice on my husband when we're in the car.  He thinks I'm pretty good.

Voted!! Someone was asking about King's Island.  I think it's in Ohio - very similar to Six Flags.

Nice job!  I especially loved the pic of the green trams.  And, I don't remember that big rocking chair.  Where is that at?
