Great photos! Millennium's track looks awesome, is it still only done part of the way up the lift hill?

Pic 17 = priceless.

He's watching you!!! =) haha.

Haha Someone needs to add a speech bubble coming from his mouth with "People gotta eat!"

Joking aside, he seems like a nice guy that does love the park.

Walt, thanks for posting the pics.
Is that one little pin I see holding the support pole and the seats on the windseeker? Very scary!

Nice attention to detail on the carousel. Great Job!

Did anyone else notice the orange circles, yellow dashes, and red dots along the frontier trail near the petting farm? Also a good number of flags in the tree areas around there as well. Seemed to be steel pins driven in asphalt with painted circles around the farm. Thoughts?


No coaster will ever be too fast or too tall!

You were not supposed to notice the location of the 500 foot tall coaster that features the "Aqua Tunnel" yet. Don't tell anyone, you will spoil the annoucement.


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

Aaaaaah this makes me so excited for wind seeker!
I have always had so much respect for the people who design the logos and themes of individual roller coasters/rides.
Th marina gate looks AMAZING now that more attention is given to that portion of the park!
lol picture 17

Going through this album makes me sad I decided not to work there this year. I'm really going to miss it at CP! Can't wait to visit as a guest this season :)

Thanks for the great pictures! I cannot wait to ride WindSeeker.

Picture 17 has got to be my favorites. He is thinking, "Oh great..there is that guy that runs that website where people tend to talk smack about me." lol.

Photos look great Walt! :)

I have not been around here in quite a while, and missed my first Opening Day in three years (yeah not much of a streak I know). The park looks nice, and Millennium really needed that fresh coat of paint. I'm actually really impressed with how the WindSeeker area is. I didn't think that area needed much change, but it really opens it up! I wonder if this will be a trend? (cough take the cover off of DT cough) :)

That was my first thought! No really, I know some people work at the park and may have heard of some kind of improvement work being scheduled? Can't see a new ride unless that whole area were demo to make room for it. Lemon chill guy said they were going to add a dark hillbilly themed ride in that area ;)

There is one of dragster in the fog.


what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.
Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
