After our unsuccessful 2021 trip to Kings Dominion, we're back to ride all the coasters. The weather had it in for us, but we rode it all, including the infamous Intimidator 305. This was the 2nd stop on our 2023 SE Coaster Tour. Enjoy!
Southeast Coaster Trip 2023: Travel Day and Busch Gardens Williamsburg!
And we're off on our 2023 Southeast Coaster trip! We took the red eye from home to Richmond, Virginia by way of New York. We then drove to Williamsburg and headed right to Busch Gardens to ride some new and old favorite roller coasters. This was just the start of the trip, some come along and see how it unfolds!
A Weekend in Ventura, July 2023 - deluxe hotel, Ventiki, Aloha on Main, and a 10k!
Here we are in Ventura, CA in July 2023. We booked the weekend to run a 10k (our longest race since Feb 2020) and luckily were able to escape the heat wave at home for a couple of days. Come with us to see a suite tour of the Marriot Ventura, a look at Ventiki (Ventura's tiki bar), shopping at Aloha on Main, and finally that 10k. Enjoy!
Magic Mountain Mondays #45: Speedy Cheese
Purgatory for operators.
In August of 1995, I took a bunch of photos (on film no less) at Six Flags Magic Mountain using an inexpensive camera. I was working as an Operations supervisor at the time, and the purpose of the project was to create a slide show for an employee appreciation party for our Operations staff. I’ve carted these slides around for over 25 years and I finally had them digitally transferred this year. About 2/3s of them aren’t available for posting because they are crew pictures and I have no way to request permission to post them. But I do have 50+ available that are just various shots of the park. Enjoy this time capsule from August 1995.
Magic Mountain Mondays #44: Jet Stream drop
Same as before. Mmmm...drop.
