Throughout the summer:
SFGAm

Other hopeful plans:
SFMM - Visiting Cali for work and will have a day/evening of free time, so hoping to make it
SFOG - Have a friend who lives in a suburb of Atlanta and I visit him once or twice a year and always try to make this park during the summer trip
Cedar Point - It's only a 6 hour drive, why not make a weekend out of it. Love floorless coasters anyways so want to ride Mant....I mean Rougarou
Mt. Olympus - Eh, what's another weekend getaway. Only 3 hours this time.

It doesn't really change any of my plans but in general I'll be spending more time at the park next year if I get a job there. Other than that, my only plan is to visit SDC over Spring Break.

Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? :roll: :P

Also for me, there will be no TR's, maybe Europe just due to the cost/bragging involved, but 50/50 at best for Europe, flat 0 for anything else

I'm going to Holiday World for the first time the 13th and 14th this month and I'm very excited to get their credits but as of now the forecast is calling for thunderstorms both days. Additionally, when I go to Kings island for the first time on the 15th and 16th, the forecast is calling for thunderstorms. Even worse, when I go to Cedar Point for the third time (however my first time being able to ride the coasters) on the 17th and 18th, both days are calling for, guess what, thunderstorms.

The luck is not with me this time. Hopefully it scares away the crowds, but if all the rides are closed we are gonna have a problem *rolls eyes*

Depending on the actual weather, the forecast could work in your favor. I've set off on my day expecting it to ran the whole day and never does. It scares people away. Anyways, being at a park with closed attractions is better than being at home in my opinion.

It's summer and most of that forecast is 5+ days in the future. You'll get some scattered thunderstorms, but it shouldn't kill any of your theme park days. Don't worry about the weather and take it as it goes. Enjoy Holiday World, I visited for the first time last month and all of their coasters are flat out great.

For sure
Cedar Point this weekend. Leaving with four other friends Friday afternoon and will spend Saturday and Sunday at the park. If CP does add a dive coaster in 2016 this will be the third year in a row I've gone to CP the year before a new coaster was bulit (Maverick and Gatekeeper).
That's all I'm for now.

Had some PTO to kill so I've just put together this road trip:

CP
Kennywood
Lakemont Park
Conneaut Lake
Waldameer
DelGrossos
Hersheypark
Knoebels

Only been to CP out of this list, so I'm pumped to hit some of the best coasters in the country on this trip. Just packing some camping supplies and lots of clothes to keep costs down, should be a blast.

From what I've heard, Do Flying Turns at Knoebel's first thing. The capacity can't be more than 100 an hour (Seriously Maximum 6 People per train, But most likely 3-4 a train)
