Since I had done most of the yard work and wanted to see fireworks, I opted for Night of Fire. I almost went down town, but decided I'd go to the park and get some Video to try my hand at putting together a vid on my still new iMac. I knew the park was packed, and I knew I wouldn't ride much, but I've already gotten enough use out of my pass, and had already been to the park earlier in the week, that I didn't care. Rode 2 things, Intimidator & Thunder Road, ate, and the just hung out. Had a great time, the crowd was HUGE, and I enjoy people watching.

I parked near here.

Image

The line for Top Gunburner was too long, so I passed since I rode twice already on Tuesday.

Image

The line to eat was too long, and I was really hungry.

Image

You really should get that Monkey off your back...

Image

Yeah, that's the line. I waited in the single rider line for about 25 minutes. I love it even more every time I ride it.

Image

Intimidator, Behemoth, and Diamondback were in a contest to see who could get the best capacity. The crew was HAULING. Carowinds won on July 3rd as that was Canada's holiday, not sure what the result was on July 4th.
