06/05/01- Bad Raptor day
Went to the point for my 3rd time this season. It was kinda a crappy day and it rained a few times. Also kinda cold. Wait throughout the park were moderate I think Millenium was about 2 hrs if that. We went to the Red Garter and it was an awesome show as usual. The raptor broke down 2 times in a 10 minute time frame. The ride op said that bugs were screwin with the sensors but nothing totally bad. Maybe its just me but in the back of Iron Dragon it seems to really shake you around almost like the tires are loose or something. But still its a great ride. I was looking for Rob in the Red Garter but I have no clue who he but I thought I would try anyways. Overall didn't get on as much as I would like to but it was a good day.
Sorry... wasn't there today... Generally you can ask the bartenders (Either Rich/Dawna/Becky or Matt) and they'll know if I'm in the park that day...

So everyday Rob is there I am not, and everyday I am there he is not! At least one of us is keeping those Millennium Force trains warm.
Raptor did sucko today. Everytime I looked up a train was parked on the midcourse. A quick tally for me on the day for my 3 PM arrival.
Gemini-19
Magnum-6 (86 on year)
Millennium Force-2 (45, 20 minute waits)
Mine Ride-2 (I got the front!, wonder why)
Blue Streak-1

You can also generally ask Sabrina on Gemini (in Camp Snoopy this week.. stop by and say Hi.. she's hating it there) or Dave (Hothitz) on MS or the tall blonde Danielle (as there are two of them on the crew) on MS..
They generally know when I'm there...

Mine Ride is the best ride in Frontier Land, here is how I would rank them (forgive me Jeff, ;) )
1. Mine Ride
2. White Water Landing
3. CP&LE RR
...................
55. Bathroom 5
56. Fish Feeders
57. Mean Streak
My neck still hurts fro my back seat Coastermania Ride, so I' think I lay off of it for another month. So I have a better chance in seeing Sabrina in camp snoopy than Hothitz and Danielle on Mean Streak ;). I think I know wehre else to find Rob.

Yeah Raptor was down for I believe 40 minutes at one point. I did manage to get on it twice through out the day though. Also, the line for Millennium Force wasn't bad at all due to the crappy weather. I waited twice in line and both times didn't even add up to a 2 hour wait. The line did get up to "1-1/2 hours", but the line didnt' look more than an hour.
