Anyone else as bored as we are???
« on: November 19, 2006, 07:27:24 PM »
We spent many a weekend or weekday at the park and are now BORED to death on the weekends. we are not winter people, WE don't like the snow or the cold. We don't really do many sports with our girls and our son at 5 is a little young for some sports. I can't wait for the 2007 season . We are going to MB in April and will have to look at the site for the HRP but that isn't going to open till 08. Can't wait !!

The Cowboys are keeping me going this offseason.  If I didn't have that, I guess school would keep me busy, lol.

Planning trips for next summer, watching coaster videos, and going to California or Florida keep me occupied in the winter (amusement park wise) I also just work tons of extra hours/days and get re-aquainted with my "non-park" friends.


Yeah, that sucks about Chiller...I hate to see it like that. Hey, so we should get a group picture or something ok. I'll call you later!

Well for me its snowboarding, baseball training, school and watching the Giants that get me through the winter.

Also the fact I will be in Florida for February break always helps too.

I was thinking of Florida, but the more I think about it, the more the Matterhorn keeps calling my name....

Matterhorn sounds great... DL in general sounds great, but I've been there the last 3 years and haven't been to Florida in 4. It's a must for me at this point.

Going to FLA this summer with friends . Can't wait till April we are off to Myrtle Beach . Here is a question is SF in maryland open that early? I guess we could stop there on the way home or the way down. We havent really stayed there for any amount of time besides to go on superman the ride but I would love to try roar .

Anyone get the Wii or PS3 ?

SFA is an OK park, I don't know if they will be open that early though... Roar and Wild One are definatly good rides, Wild One being th better of the 2 with awesome airtime in the front 3 rows!


I wish I had pre-ordered 3 or 4 PS3's... I have a friend that got 4 of them and sold each one for 2,300!!! I'm such an idiot!

I'm staying at the HoJo in Kissamee... we got a 2 bedroom suite, we should meet up at some point down there, I'm going with my friend Matt from Iowa and still trying to talk Chuck into going but he keeps complaining that it costs too much money. LOL

Good ol' chuck.... always money money money - he bailed on HHN because of that crap... geez, always money... who needs that crap.... LOL

Chuck, Just go!!  thats what Visa and Mastercard are for!

crap, um, just kidding Chuck...be responsible and don't get into any more debt.  Don't listen to me...  Dueling Dragons and Mummy will be there for years to come.  As will Everest ;

seriously though, its totally worth the money.  At least to me it is.  Now you better have money saved up for your big TWO ONE this coming October for HHN!

I say we all take a road trip to MM this winter.  One of the best parts about my job as a flight attendant is that I end up in different cities for work and usually have some time off to explore.  I have made many trips to MM on my layovers in LA and am really itching to get back soon and ride some coasters.
