Just found out you can scroll down and see more. I am so dingy

No you're not, Trams.  The first time I tried, there wasn't anything to scroll to either - because I tried.

Congratulations Silver Dollar City! This is definitely going to bring in the crowds!

Silver Dollar City is probably still trying to keep most of the layout, and turn by turn animations of the coaster under wraps simply because they don’t want to spoil the entire ride for first time riders.

Everything is coming together nicely! It has finally graduated from just a rumor in the backwoods to a reality.  ;D

I am glad you guys are enjoying all the photos I have been taking during construction.  Looking down the drop hill and through the barrel roll are definitely my favorite.

The section placed today (exit of barrel rolls) is valued at $32,000.  To put that in perspective, that's more than the initial investment on SDC

Holy cow. Never have I been more excited to ride a roller coaster. This thing looks fantastic! I'm only sad that there was no animation.

Was anything mentioned about any of the other upgrades to the park that we have heard about?

Here's another different perspective of the barrel rolls from the Spfd News Leader.
