I can't believe it! Wasn't I just reading TRs about the first rides on Diamondback? Wow, that was fast!

Yeah the season always passes with the blink of an eye for me. It's easy to take it for granted that the park is open over the summer, and then once the off-season hits I find myself complaining that I didn't get a chance to go enough haha. Nonetheless I had a great year at the park(s) this year, and hopefully this off-season will go quickly.

The season is over in 9 minutes!

I went to KI on Friday. Didn't care for the rain, but whatcha gonna do, you know? I rode DB and Beast one more time and then said goodbye. Next year I'm allowed to drive to KI and Cedar Point so I'll visit a lot more. I'm going to miss Scooby Doo and Demon Drop this year. Maybe Son of Beast too?

R.I.P. Season of 2009.

I just realized that I can't go to Kings Island anymore this season... Oh well! Life goes on! Cheer up people!

My last ride of the season was SDatHC. It will be missed, along with SoB and hopefully The Crypt.

I'm extremely happy to say my last ride of the year was a night ride on Beast in the front seat. What a way to close!

And another one bites the dust. How depressing it is to say.....

....Is it April yet?

I'll just let my Facebook status speak for itself:

[CedarPointer] just got back from Kings Island, and almost shed a tear, knowing he won't be back there until April... but hopes maybe he will be working there next year.

Cheers! For a wonderful offseason on KIC!

Haha it's funny, everybody here (including me) is so addicted to Kings Island that we start crying because it's the offseason! It's like a long lost friend.

Assuming the season begin April 17th, just 166 more days. Yay!

Nice meeting you- sort of-Jackson. I wish I could have joined you guys for the ACE Beast rides. Sadly I just joined yesterday so I don't have my card yet.

Anyone know if there'll be an offseason event?

My last ride at KI for 2009 was Adventure Express. Nothing like a good Arrow! But I will be down in Orlando in 2 days so you won't see me crying yet. It was a good season but sad to leave all of my work friends even though we know we will hang out during the winter.

Most of my posts on KIC come during the off season. Looks like I will be on here a lot more with the park being closed. Can't wait for training in March!

I can't believe its already come. It seems like just yesterday I was waiting in line for DB on opening day.

^^ Sweet! Same with me.//

Anyone notice that Terpy hasn't posted anything for almost a week? Yet, an Anonymous member just logged out...

^Wrong, posted like 3 days ago at the least!

^

His most recent post was the 26th of October.

It is very sad that its the off season, but we can at least look at I and I 305???

Just figured out, with 40 total days at CF parks, that's 10.959% of my year spent at CF parks. Not including others.

14.257% at total parks.

THe off season isnt bad for minus the cold winter.

Is Intimidator open yet?

^ No, not to the public, but construction is progressing at a very high speed.

wahh no roller coasters till december(guess where im going for x-mas!!)

Is that what that was. I thought it was just for anyone who wanted a last ride, so I kinda waited with the group. My bad...

The Orlando area? Casue thats where im ging to be going in January.

well if everything works out I might be at ki this winter working on Planet Snoopy, nothing better than being surrounded by rides and not being able to ride them!

The off season isn't so bad as long as the local football teams keep things interesting.

Yu shuld sneak some pic

I did get emotional, but RARELY showed it the last two days. This season ment more to me than prior seasons due to :

*Being there for both openin & closin day

*making new freinds thru kic & haunt workers

* fellow haunt members you say there is an 90% chance they wont/cant come back

*not seein the scene upclose & personal @ least once a month

*Diamondback

*the details of my visits that puts a smile on my face

*the rest is just too personal to discuss, but some here know what I am talkin about

Overall it has been the best season for me ever. I just hope the O. S. Goes by fast.

^you met me haha

I finally got to meet Gator too! (though I think I scared him a little bit lol)

I got real emotional, mainly with Haunt in particular. Me loves my Haunt family. Yesterday was tad soothing seeing some Haunt coworkers who went to the park. I had my season pass so I brought Undertaker along for the bring a friend for 10 bucks thing... it was nice spending time with my dad who was also with us

I won't miss Diamondback too much considering I was standing under it for a whole month.

Can't wait to work the park next summer again! The surgery I had back in February threw me off course so I didn't get to go back till Haunt. So yay!

you mean I missed seein my faeriewench & undertaker yesterday!!! I will right that tr now but first I will get some sleep shortly, since I have been up since 9:30a.m. Yesterday. If its not up by time I leave for work tonight, it will be up tomorrow.
