I'm going to Knoebels with a couple of friends Sat. May 7th. Perhaps some Knoebelians would be interested. If so, please press 1 (or just post).

The 7th may be a go, old friend. My husband and I are strongly considering a trip that weekend - what's the latest on your side???

Hmmmmm. Dorney opens that day, but everyone and their mother is probably going to go to Dorney, so I may do Knoebles Saturday, stay the night, and hit Dorney the next day. That could work out well.

Yeah, that is precisely why we are going to the Big K on that day.

I'd curse heavily right now if I could - we're going to head out to Knoebels on the weekend of May 21st, now - we have a wedding to attend on the 7th. Darn it, darn it, darn it... However, if this date is better, let me know, as I'm sure we're going to be there.

The 21st is no good for me. Coaster Celebration at SFGAdv is that day. I could make May 22nd. Can you change plans slightly Joe?

Yes, I could switch Hershey and Knoebels no problem, but I do have a question if I do so: can Knoebels be done in six hours? From what I can gather, it's only open from noon-six on Sunday, but I assume that we can cover it well within that time. I just want to make sure. That may work out well because that gives me 2 more hours at Herhsey, which for such a big park that could be helpful.

Just let me know and I will switch it over, because I wouldn't think that it would be too big of a deal to do Knoebels in 6 hours. It sounds good to me though

Wow, this is screwed up. Everyone is going to Dorney on May 7th and now Knoebels on May 21. Well, I am going to Knoebels on May 7th and Dorney on May 21. Weird. Anyway, thanks anyway, adriahna.

Well, it is actually 7 hours (I read wrong earlier) and I switched it around, so it's a go

C'mon adriahna, make it a TPCCon

I told my girlfriend and she is cool with it, though she wanted to make sure y'all weren't murderers

Well, I have Larrygator to vouch for me. Sounds like adriahna will have her other half with her, and I assume the greyhound too? It'll be a long but fun weekend.

Hmmmm.... I could be in on this too if you let me. I'll have a lot of work to get done for the next week, but I can fit this in.

Hey B. Fun, I already asked about Dorney, but do you mind if I tag along for Great Adventure too? That would save a needless parking payment for you too I'm not really sure if I'll be able to pull it off with work and everything right now, but I just figured I would ask.

I had no doubt in you guys, she was just joking

Herc, it sounds good to me, and I'm sure the others wouldn't have a problem "letting you in" on the fun
You do know that I'm hitting G-Adv on Thursday, right? Cyclonic is the one going to the event on Sat. Either way, you are more than welcome

Well, I'm glad it looks like I'll get in on the long-planned, now changed event after all

Yeah knew that. Great Adventure on Thursday, Dorney on Friday, Coaster Celebration on Saturday and Knoebels on Sunday. Woof... what a packed couple of days. We will just have to work out the details when it rolls around, that is all. Thanks

It's official, kids - we're set for May 21. We may stay overnight, so there is the chance that we'll drop in on the park on May 22 for a couple of hours, as well. Whatever the case, we're committed... May 21... Knoebels... BE THERE.

Maybe I'll head out again on May 21st, also. It will be a last minute decision for me because this is sandwiched in between my CP and other Midwest trip weekends.

I'll vouch that Cyclonic did not murder anyone when I met him at Coney Island.

I'm sensing a possible confusion here. Cyclonic, me, and possibly Herc are going on Sunday the 22nd, right? Plus, adriahna may be there both on Sat. the 21st and Sun the 22nd. So, Larry, did you mean the 22nd or 21st?

Yes, the 22nd it is. That is Sunday.

So, is anyone going to be out there this weekend? Free hotdogs and beer at my campsite for anyone that comes on out.

Shit, I would come up, but I think it would be a bad idea for me to drink while on the job...Well, then again free hot dogs ;-) I dont know where you people live, but Centrailia, town that has underground mine fires, and the Ashland Mine ride are close by. Some weird stuff around the area.

Well, I was thinking after the park closes (and the event ERT). Just look for the silver PT Cruiser with the Army pup tent. I will probably be on a platform closer to the park.

BTW, where in the park are you working this Sat?

Nathan - I'll try to give you a call when I get to the park on Saturday late-morning and hope to run into you by the Pavillion where we have to pick-up wristbands.
