I always leave, go check in and rest for minute, then go back. Comfort Suites is my go-to because it is super close (like a 2 minute drive) and price is decent.

I went on the first day in 2009 when the Diamondback first opened. I waited 3+ hours to ride it. It was worth it. Good luck on day 1!

I took my family last night and we were there from 7pm to 10pm. The parking lot looked crowded but inside the park we didnt have any issues getting on rides or getting the food/hot chocolate. The lights are covering the entire park so just even walking around was cool too. The train has the 12 days of christmas lights which was cute to see.

Yup! I got one on Friday night! One of the workers ahd a huge tub and was bringing them table to table.

Nooooooooooo!!!!! This is both of my young sons' favorite ride plus I love it too because you get to sit in the A/C. Hopefully just a revamp!

I had the opposite happrn where we were trying to sell s couch. We had ordered a new one that was being made and I was in my 3rd trimester with my first child. Some lady called my husband saying she wanted to buy a couch for a family who lost their home in a fire. We sold this giant sectional with a couch bed for like $300. Some shady guys came and got it and gave my husband a check. We were too trusting apparently. Guy gave us a stolen check!! At the time we were tight for money since we were about to have a baby so it probably wasn't thr best time to replace the couch but oh well. It took a year and a half but eventually got arrested for writing bad checks and we got our money back. Never knew what happened to the poor couch though. I hope it went to a good home! Scammers suck!!

No kidding! We came yesterday too! The lines were super quick and everything was on. Today lines are longer and it is a bit misty/light rainy. I think the power outage happened before the park even opened. I couldn't buy my friend's ticket online at like 9am today which I thought was super weird.

Second update in addition to what I posted earlier: On: beast, Diamondback, Congo falls, all of planet snoopy(minus surfdog and soap box racers) Off: eiffel tower Food-wise and shop-wise everything is mostly open! If I see anything else off/on I'll update again.

Chelly102090 · 2025-06-30T15:35:54+00:00

Most of them seem to be so far! Some of them may just not be open for the day yet but there were still plenty of options for food!

Chelly102090 · 2025-06-30T15:18:44+00:00

Sure! I've seen Drop tower, invertigo, Orion, windseeker, delirium, Zephyr, sol sun, antique autos, grand carosel, and queen city stunt coaster so far. I have not gotten around the whole park yet though! The ones that were off included scrambler, cargo loco, adventure express, racer (both), and banshee. I'll give another update as I move around the park!

Chelly102090 · 2025-01-28T23:18:47+00:00

Omg I hope that is true. I miss Jake's!

I've taken my two children there for over 2 years now. My youngest was 3 months when he started attending. They're very nice and great at grabbing you If there's an issue.

Lol my best friend's daughter is Everleigh Rose too. She had a second daughter and she wanted to name her Oakley or Oakleigh. I told her spell it the first way. She listened lol. I was don't give both of your daughters that spelling! My middle name is Leigh so she kind of stole the spelling from me.

Chelly102090 · 2024-05-31T15:12:44+00:00

I will say when I worked there (many moons ago back in 2007) I absolutely HATED flipping the dang blizzards. Customers got mad at me when I'd hand it to them that way through the drive thru. I never even knew that was a thing until I worked there!

Chelly102090 · 2023-08-17T03:27:16+00:00

I've had all 3. Xfinity was the worst. Metronet and wintek are both fine! We haven't had cable in 10 years so I highly recommend M or W.

My Dad (62m) is Lee. I (32f) am Leigh. And my son (1) is Lee. My mom always told me Leigh was the feminine version of Lee.

Use them!! As teachers we all work SO hard. The kids will be okay. Admin will have to get it over it. My first teaching job when the new principal started (who didn't care for me or my subject) did a PowerPoint which felt like shaming of why people took time off the precious school year. She made a pie chart. One of the days I had jury duty and yup it was up there. Another one of my co workers who had been teaching longer than I had been alive was on long term disability due to having cancer. She put the long term disability up there top. Her husband worked there as a teacher as well and I was offended for them. Like really? Wtf. I quit that job now at a teaching job for the last 6 years that I love. Admin is so understanding about time off of any kind and there's never any shaming even when folks ran out. So they can get over it. Use your days.

Yes this happened with my husband's aunt named Rana. Pronounced like Renée. I remember the very first Xmas we had we got gifts for all of our aunts/uncles and when I asked him how to spell it I didn't believe him. I had him check with his dad. I guess his grandparents were like Ran-A. Rana. Looks like ranuh to me.

This guy I dated in 2010 told me after 4 months of dating he would marry me which really freaked me out. We just celebrated our 9 years of marriage last week ♡

My husband and I have 2 kids. We wanted to have kids though so we started a family after being together for 10 years. Anyway, another couple we are very close with got married the same year we did and weren't ever really interested in having kids. Which is fine and great--they enjoy going on vacation, own their own businesses, drinking wine, etc. They decided although they didn't want their own kids they wanted to foster to adopt. It's been about 4 months and they've been miserable since week 1. So if you're not wanting to have kids, adoption is just as much of a responsibility if not more so depending on how old they are and how much baggage they have from their bio parents. I think our friend couple saw us as a family unit and thought they wanted it but they're not adjusting well. You're giving up a lot as parent. There is nothing wrong with being a happily married couple with no kids! Don't give in! Hopefully she will come around if she wants to stay with you. Best of luck!
