Dollywood Pigeon Forge, Tennessee A Smoky Mountain Christmas December 2, 2006 Page Four
After a few laps by Thunderhead's maintenance crew it was deemed good to go. The whole goal of this morning was to get me and a camera strapped to my chest on the ride. While we were getting ready Dollywood's director of safety suggested that I ride it without the camera to get my bearings. So who was I to pass up having Thunderhead all to myself. I can tell you this nothing wakes you up like a nice early morning coaster ride on a crisp December morning. Forget coffee.
Here I am being turned into "Robo-Enthusuast"! What was tough was coming up with something to wear for the shoot that didn't have a park or a coaster on it. I had to dig deep in my wardrobe but eventually I found this coaster free sweatshirt that my in-laws got me to wear.
My main impression of Thunderhead since my last ride in 2004 was WOW it has really broken in.
Back then I thought it was good ride but it was really rocking this year with way more speed and airtime than before.
