I know I'm late, but better late than never!

Injectors were finicky and required some extra effort to get going (Dan says they are just like a woman!). Plus side, though, is a few of us really learned how to handle them when they get fussy. It was a very good learning experience.

Here's Dan pulling the train around full of eager riders. We had a good day! For the entire time we were up until after 12:30 we were full of riders.

Some of the helpers that day: Chris, her grandson Damon and Harold helped with conducting.

Here is the new entrance full of people climbing the fence to get in. I really think come show time, this new configuration will really help keep the congestion down in the road area. We hope it will make passage for people movers a bit less exciting.

And I caught these guys driving by and I thought it was neat!

Was it a long ride home for him? :D

Are you talking about the injectors, or the women? :biglaugh:

Seriously Dawn... Those are some great pictures. I am not sure I have ever seen a bad picture of a youngster near the Ortner!

I know it was not in your plans to come up for that event, and you and your crew made an extra effort (and expense) to make it happen. From the looks of it, and...
For the entire time we were up until after 12:30 we were full of riders.

... I hope you agree... It was worth it! :bannana:

Luckily, I have a short memory! Umm probably both!

AND YES! It was worth it! Definately!

Ultimately, we all come because we want to!
