"Wood You Believe It?"

What do you think?

Could this be for Mean Streak?

This is pretty cool. Its probably nothing though.

Awesome. thanks for the link!

There's wood brought in every year for everything from coaster maintenance (MS, BS and Gemini) to fence and building repair.

It's nothing out of the ordinary.

It's out of the ordinary that Tony and Tyler are reporting on it!

Based on the shape/type of lumber they have stacked - It could be for Mean streak - but don't get your hopes too high.

Every year about this time they receive shipments of lumber. Sometimes its for making square frames to put coaster cars on in the off season, sometimes its for landscaping usage, sometimes to simply replace and retrack minor wooden ride elements such as Gemini and areas of Mean streak's structure.

Now what I would LIKE to think it is for that new custom woodie by the beach.... but when they can't replace lightbulbs and maintain themeing, I wonder if they would invest in a new ride as such.

Knowing how things are going, its probably for that new deck on the back of Dick's house.

No it's not, GCI was in the park a few weeks ago looking at Mean Streak. The wood is going to be for MS

Or is it going to be for what replaces Mean Streak? :) Just kidding.

And they made some words these words stand out.

"board, Cedar, pining, trunk, leaf"

They are puns, since the blog is about wood. I don't think they hint at anything other than the fact that some wood has arrived.

Well Im not getting my hopes up. Allthough i would love to see CedarPoint build a new woodie. But i highly doubt its anything special.....

No Vince, they're not PUNS... they're TREE WORDS! Cedar Point is getting a Shivering Timbers@!@!!!11 U heard it here first!

:rolling of the eyes:

Hehehehe.... They got "wood" ;-) Couldn't resist that one.

It's time to retrack the ride with the help of GCI or let it go and tear it down in a few years. That appears to be the same dimensional lumber used for tracking. Rebuild, retrack, or tear down.

Most likely we are getting excited about nothing more than the continuous wood replacement that happens for all of the wood coasters during the off season. But with Tony and Tyler reading these forums sometimes, I believe they know exactly how to pull our strings and get us talking.

Look how much wood there is though that is alot of wood...

...that's what she said.

Oh I called it I knew I set someone up after i typed it. haha

I actually viewed this blog entry as an incognito way of Tony and Tyler auditioning for a stand-up comedy tour...I don't know why the rest of you are thinking its GCI...

Quite frankly, they really should not quit their day jobs...maybe with a little more practice...

/sarcasm

Oh come on....with the state of the economy....blah blah blah....

There is no way T and T would make a post about general maintenence work done with wood every year. Plus, that's a heck of a lot. Feel free to get your hopes up.

Yeah, sorry Kevinj, Tony and Tyler (Tony especially) know that the majority of people who read their blogs are people on boards like these. So yes, they sometimes pander to this audience whether they admit to it or not.

I wouldn't get too excited, but that's just me.
