I'm still holding out for a Mack Strykercoaster, especially after the "first in the United States" comments from fan-fest. (Which could be said for a lot of different models from different manufacturers, but still.) If the latest additions that Swooosh added hold true to the end of the construction process (lots of tunnels), imagine a section where you enter a tunnel with the shake effect track that Voltron has, and then you launch out to escape the collapsing cave!

Or it could be Mack's mine train but unpowered.

Stoped by yesterday and confirmed David Owen had left as knife maker. He did excellent forging work and will be missed. Good thing is the Knifemaker wanted sign is gone and they told me the new guy has about 20 knives ready to display. Jeust waiting on his makers mark to be delivered before they put them out for sale.

We are on park now and there are footers going in directly under Wildfire's lift hill.  You can only really see it while riding Powderkeg.  Also several footers clustered together between Wildfire's entrance and American Plunge.  They have excavated right up beside the AP channel by the whirlpool

As far as the flooded mine ride, I'd love it if they did for it what they did for fire in the hole... unlikely as it may be

Based off of what has been happening so far, pictures, what needs to be done, and what I can see, this looks to be a Ride Package. 2 rides for the price of 1. Both of these rides are going to interact with each other. 1 ride, we know mostly what it is. The other looks like we are finally getting our version of Chiapas, a Forwards/ Backwards Flume Ride. I say this because American Plunge needs to be rebuilt, we have been waiting on this rumor, and now it suddenly closes down for construction. The plans seem to be coming to surface. They might add in a flat ride too, but it's still too early to tell.

Other than our version of Chiapas, I have been wanting a coaster that can give me the big pops of airtime over and over again for years now! Ever since Celebration City closed down, actually. For me, Wildcat did that. Now, I have realized that GCI isn't the only manufacturer that can do that. I REALLY hope this coaster includes at least 3 bunny hops in a row and goes like 50 MPH over them!

A note to some of you as well: Remember, the new train station is going to be built at the site of the old Fire In The Hole, probably after this construction is done. Then, our version of Mystery Mine should start on the current site of Flooded Mine/ old Waterboggan Tower. Yes, I know we do need a shooting ride/ another indoor ride. I don't know where that will be or if that is in the plans, but I am hoping and praying for a Sally Dark Ride, because they are always highly themed, they have great guns, and usually have Black Lights, which I love.

That piece is from the end of June. My family is actually in it.
We've met Andrew Wexler (Herschend CEO) a few times. He is super nice, down to earth, and authentic just like the Herschend and SDC leadership.
