Missouri Theme Parks Trip Report
Jun 26, 2007We’re back from out trip to Missouri. For those of you interested in a preview of some photos or just hearing about the trip in general, head over to CoasterBuzz where I wrote a rather lengthy Trip Report. There’s more than 60 photos from our trip included.
You might also want to download the latest Podcast while you’re over there. In the last half of the show I get into some details on the trip - if you really care.
I took tons of pics and scored a little video on the trip. Give me some time to sort it all out and get it looking pretty before it starts hitting the site. Sooner than later, so feel free to hold your breath.
We leave in 10 days for another weeklong trip south. More details on that trip with the next update. Enjoy the preview photos, reading the novel-length report and listening to me wonk about how great the Branson parks are.
Geauga Lake Photos
Jun 15, 2007I’m practically walking out the door as I type this. As promised, I added new Geauga Lake pictures. A little bit of everything included in the update so feel free to browse the entire Geauga Lake gallery - you’ll find something new in pretty much every section.
I also added a new video to our YouTube channel. It’s not available on the site, so you’ll have to head over there to take a look. Nothing too spectacular, just a full cycle of Texas Twister. If you’ve wanted to see how Geauga Lake runs their Top Spin, then here’s a full, single shot of one ride cycle for you.
That pretty much covers it. We’re leaving in a few minutes for a week-long coaster/park trip. We’ll be hitting 5 or 6 parks including Worlds Of Fun, Six Flags St. Louis, Silver Dollar City and others. You can expect the photos and video to start showing up shortly after we return.
Until then, enjoy the Geauga Lake stuff and get out and ride something!
Cedar Point Photos, Maverick Video & Pictures
Jun 4, 2007With this update we hit a bit of a milestone. One that I’ve been closing in on for a while. I added the handful of new Cedar Point photos I had to the Cedar Point Gallery and with those additions Coasterimage.com now officially features more than 5000 photos. As corny as it sounds, I’m pretty proud. The first photos on this site were taken in February 2001 and here we are in June 2007 five thousand photos later still plugging away. If it weren’t for everybody visiting the site there’d be no reason for us to be here after 6 years still bringing you the best roller coaster and amusement park photos around. Good stuff.
And just in case you missed it last week - don’t forget about the Maverick Video and the Maverick Pictures from opening weekend. (I promise that’s the last mention) - In addition I added two new Maverick Wallpaper images.
Also of interest is the mailing list. If you had signed up before last week, you were the first to know about the Maverick media we had online. Even before Screamscape posted it, even before CoasterBuzz had it listed, even before the photos showed up on RCDB - mailing list members had the info in their inboxes first.
Our YouTube channel is another good place to find out about new videos the second they’re added, so you might want to subscribe to that as well.
As far as what’s up next - I still have new Geauga Lake photos to add and I scored some video during our visit as well. Not sure if that will make it to the site or be a 2007 DVD exclusive. Once I have a chance to go over the footage, we’ll see. After that we’re off to Missouri to hit up another half dozen parks in the middle of the month. Check the schedule page for more info.
That about covers is for now. Friggin’ 5000 pictures, man!
