Are you talking Mr. Owl as in "how many licks does it take to....? Wasn't sure if that was what you were referencing. That's what popped in my head 1st.

Last I heard they were right on schedule or even a little ahead. Have a little faith!

A lot of work to be done? I don't think we're looking at the same webcams. Look at whats been completed in the past 3 days.

The front gate dinosaur was uncovered today. A sure sign of progress.

I agree with Maverick. I looked at the webcam the day the cement started to be poured at the main gate and the next day I looked and it was all done! Yes they have a lot of work to do but they are on schedule and have been making great progress

There are crews working on the towers and pavers today. By the looks of it, they could have the in park section of pavers done today.


Trying to get stuff done on a holiday? What slackers......:)

I was shocked to see them working today. It looked like they were ahead of schedule, then again my home park is owned by Six Flags so every other park looks ahead of schedule to me ;)

I think the darker towers look better! Has it already been said what material is being used to cover them?

That is pretty dark. I hope it dries differently, I thought the color would match the station.

My first guess would be paint, but what do I know?

I think it looks darker on the webcam than what it really is. If you look at the picture John Hildebrandt tweeted today you can see it is not as dark as it seems on the webcam.
