One other thought.  How long does it take for a hobo to take a shower?

Ok, I think you guys have sufficiently run that into the ground.  Let's get the thread back on track.

Is there any news from our parkees on filling the new water ride or the removal of more of WB?

I cannot get over how good this thing looks.  Completely blows Dollywood's out of the water with regards to theming.  The cat tales are really cool and add that extra something to the swamp theme.  This thing is going to go over very well.  I know I cannot wait to ride it. :D :D :D

SDC website says the new Apple Butter store will be open on opening day. It will be near McHaffie's Homestead. Can't wait to see the new and improved. http://bransonsilverdollarcity.com/specialty-shops/detail.aspx?AttractionID=156

Sounds like the old Basket shop to me..   I hope.

Here is a little Fire in the Hole, the scene clean-up has gone over well. There is a story line throughout!

A lot more details are being added as well.

I am so excited to see this in person!! The theme looks fantastic! I love the signage as well! I think SDC outdid themselves again...

The theming is awesome on this ride.  Shows that SDC still knows how to do things right, and this really makes that area look more alive then it ever has.  Looking forward to the 19th so I can see this for myself.

I'm also excited but would expect a high level of detail as this has been a 2 year project.

How long are the lines going to be with only eight boats?

What do they mean by an elevator helping all children having access to the land-based water blaster fort?

I like how they mention that theming is paramount.  Of course they didn't mention this on the same picture as the family dryer or the elevator.

It's going to be so cold in the spring for this.

I will be bringing a poncho and plastic bags for my shoes.

I was thinking about going the poncho route myself, but I always feel like that takes too much away from the very purpose of the ride, so I'll probably end up wearing swim trunks to the park now just for this ride. I just hope they don't start charging extortionate locker fees. $1 or 2 is OK, but most park let it get out of control when they see how desperate people are for them.

There is an elevator on the new fort next to the old fort
