Congrats on a second year crewing your favorite ride!! 1 Quote
starlitfire Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 When I start craving blue ice cream and spring break has finally passed, meaning the offseason is coming to an end. Seriously though, I live 900 miles away from the park for most of the year. The cravings for Skyline, LaRosa's, and blue ice cream are seriously a problem. 2 Quote

Skyline--you can order cans and packets from Amazon. Blue Ice Cream--it's not specific to KI. A new store opened close to where I live and sells it and it is WONDERFUL. The Skyline solution for me in the winter helps me get thru the winter. Quote
HandsUp Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 You measure your kid every week or so to make sure he's going to hit a legit 48 inches by opening day! 5 Quote

IndyGuy4KI Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 I measured the kids yesterday to see where they are with the next milestone. One is so close to 54". I am not sure if they are going to get that wristband at the park or not. 2 Quote

Codyfryguy Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 It is almost filled! It also looks like the test dummies are sitting in the stationSent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk 1 Quote
Airtimeluvr Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Looks like it was just power washed earlier, it's so clean. If it was filling I would think that the fake stream would have a wet spot on the concrete from water running into the pond. Quote

Or the "Ra Tat Tat Tat Tat" of Diamondback as it bottoms out on the initial hill. You also know it's the off season when everyone has no new news to report Quote
