Lori's Holiday World: Rider Comfort. Cost. Prevent or reduce unnecessary maintenance. Current management's goals and costs tolerance are different than those in the past. Watch what they do, not what they say.

Speed limits have NO grace tolerance. Towns on detours know this. THEIR real limit IS the speed limit. (See also Washington, DC). Much of the time, you won't be able to do the speed limit. It's when it drops suddenly a town has opportunity. Following the crowd thinking one is protected while bearing out of state tags? Really? There's a strategy!

And rejection of the lease by the bankrupt owner or a bankruptcy court. Water is provided by a system operated by that owner as well. It is possible that this property could become part of a sale to pay off debt. Large contiguous parcels bring far more money than if they have a checkerboard of cottage outlots preventing development but bringing in $1 a year each for nearly a thousand years in the future. Lease rejected in a bankruptcy? See Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom--lease over. These properties used to go for far, far more.

Operating? It did that? Really? Terp, only 43 percent kidding.

You'se my kind of people. But you knew that already.

A steel coaster requires far less maintenance and continuing commitment to operate. A steel coaster is like a relationship. A wood coaster, a marriage. And there have been steel coasters torn down. Not gigas. Yet. The day will come.

Rampage, as it was running last year, was my favorite wooden coaster. I do need to get back to Tremors--and soon.

I wouldn't cross the street to ride Voyage. I'd gladly drive cross country in a blinding storm to ride Beast at night.

For people my age, that's sacrilege.

I can also about guarantee that many of Tennessee's revenuers--excuse me--safety enhancers--will be out in full force passing out invitations to the local court systems. They certainly have in years past. It's for the safety of the children, you see.
