Well my company threw our summer picnic at Holiday World a big amusement park in southern IN,, My buddy that is seated next to me in this picture talked me into riding the biggest and baddest roller coaster they had. It generates almost 25 seconds of weightless airtime And let me tell you this,,it had been 25 years since I had been on a roller coaster and only road 1 at kings island and this one was enough for me,,lol. The view going up the first mountain they drop you off of was great but I had my eyes open for maybe 3-4 seconds as soon as we broke over that first drop and I only opened them for a few brief seconds throughout the rest of the torture trail,,I definately am TOO OLD for this stuff,,my buddy agreed the same for him,,lol. We are the 2 old geezers in the back behind those to brave sensless kids in the front. i53.photobucket.com/albums/g75/hoosieroutdoorsman/GTVoyage.jpg

Is that you trying to put your head between your legs??!!! ;D I haven't been on a coaster in years, but I love them. I have been on the ones at Kings Island...they were great fun. I guess climbing straight up a tall tree and sitting in a small tree stand for hours is more your speed??!! ;D

Ya look like your gona blow chunks Tracy , glad you and the Hoosier gang had a great time today . I miss the amusement parks I grew up around in the midwest. I also lived near that dam rodent trap in Orlando too. wish there were some amusement parks in Mt, but thats the trade off I get for livin in Big Sky Country. ;D

Yep tree stand 30 feet up are way more my speed ;D I wasn`t terrified but it just wasn`t a natural feeling for me,,lol. That thing was unreal,,it made the beast at kings island look like a kiddy ride,,I had never been so fast and banged around like I was in a barrel going over niagra falls before,,lol. Call me chicken,,I can take it,,LOL
