Title: Photo TR 5/30
Post by: Robert T Ackerman on May 31, 2006, 03:39:10 PM
Since I never actually do any kind of TR's or post any new pics, I thought I might as well start now.   :P

On the way to the park is a new Llama farm. It is on 539 in Warren Grove (I think I might be the only one who comes from that direction) I got a few pics of the llamas in action, and I must say, they are some stupid (funny) animals  ;D. I got to the park a little after opening to meet up with Joe (Bubba) and Tom(PCMan) and we got a quick ride on Chiller Red, Batman, FreeFall, 2 Nitro rides, and Congo Rapids. This would basically be the end of our riding, ad we only rode Medusa after that. We left the park for some KFC then went through the Safari to take some "exclusive" shots from back there (plus the fact I have not gone through the Safari since '99. It was nice, nothing new, a bunch of animals... Now on to the pics...

El Toro is going through a standard inspection following its test run on Monday to make sure everything stayed nice and tight ;)
