Left school at 9:15 and got to SFGAm right as the park opened. Header for Southwest Territory and saw that Bull was down, so wen went right to Drop for a 20 minute wait. It was only running 3 cars today. Great ride.

Then we saw that Bull was open. The first que house was starting to fill up, but the wait was only 25 minutes. Got 2nd row. Another awesome ride. As I was on the lift, I saw a V2 test run. Went up the back tower and e stopped right before the spike. It did this all day.

Next was Viper. I love this ride. Had a 25 minute wait as well. Took last row and it was insane. Non-stop thrill and lots of speed and airtime.

Stopped by Dejavu to see what was going on and they were taking off the water dummies! The ride didnt move all day though. I dont know if tomorrow is the day it opens. Work was being done on tower 1.

Before stopping at the season pass processing center, we got a quick ride on Demon. The line was short as usual.

Then I stopped by the processing center to get my ID. We all agreed to get something to eat before contuing so we went over by SUF and got some Papa Johns. It was pretty good, but expensive.

Of course, SUF was next. Had a 20 minute wait for 2nd row. I actually seemed to enjoy it this time.

I wanted to see if V2 had opened up, but it was still closed. So we went to BTR. Nice 15 minute wait for last row. Seemed a bit bumpy, but still a great ride.

Got a few pics of V2 before going on. Nobody wanted to Ride IW, so we skipped it and went to Eagle. Red side was closed. Blue side is really rough. I like Red better.

I was dissapointed to see Revolution closed. Somehow we ended up back at Viper, then Bull again, then Viper again, then bull again. I saw that we only had 45 minutes, so I ran to Demon. No one was in the station really. Got 4 re-rides in a row. Then headed to the bus to go home.

Overall it was a good day, and the weather was great. A LOT of rides closed though. Not good.
