QuoteWow, is it really that visible from the road, or do you just have a really good zoom lens? Every time I see it EH seems to move closer to the road
I was by yesterday and couldnt get any pics better than Sandune although they have put up a wooden fence along Indian point weekly trying to block the view. It doesnt work at all.

Wow! I looked at your pics, Sand, but seeing it in person puts a whole new spin on it! I'm sure they will make it look nice, but I hope it's not too visible from the road when it's finished. And, yes, the fence is worthless.

There are several trees still left along the road, severla feet deep.. so hopefully when the leaves come on, they will shield the ride from the road.... BUT.. LOL.. the scenery around TNT will NEVER look the same!!

Also keep in mind, down in the valley they could still add a tunnel... although there is no indication of that yet, no footings, no concrete, BUT it could still happen,,,,

QuoteHow does the rest of the park look?
I'm not sure what you're asking?
I was wondering how the rest of the park looked. Changes for the new lights ext.

Well the treehouse is down now. That's the biggest change. Sounds like Cannery Road will be safe for one more season. There might be some other changes coming to the park but they haven't started it yet.

Is the Ghost Trap still there? If not I really hope they move it somewhere else. I love that thing (when it's working). Another Andyism I'm sure

Tonight KY3 ran a story about how SDC will be holding a jobs fair... but that wasn't the interesting part of story. The interesting part was the photo that KY3 chose to use as background when talking about the story. I don't think that roller coaster is at the park... yet.

Interesting...but not putting much stock into it. Could just be a local news outlet finding a random roller coaster picture.

Lol, royalty free photos. Just like the vekoma boomerang on some of the wildfire shirts.

The issue being this is KY3 and they're not hurting for B-roll footage from the park.

sanddunerider · February 07, 2017, 07:40:56 AM

Yep, just a stock photo.........
NOW if they had done a walk through the park......
SAAAYYYY by where the treehouse was.............
Then we would have had something to look at!!.............

LOL

Now even the entrance to my hideout is gone. Anyone see the huuuuge shooting star night before last?

Here are the pics from this week...... Thje last 4 pics are taken from the employee access road to the south of construction site, looking to the north..

The rest were all taken from the east work entrance on the blacktop. I was in inside the open gate 60 or 70 feet.. looking westward and back and forth.
