       We have traveled over the years and have almost 600 coasters
       with over 100 of them wood.  The weakness is with many of the
       new coasters over the last few years not being ridden yet.  We
       did get Steel Vengeance, but haven't got LR or any of the new
       ones this year yet.  We hope to rectify that soon.

       Phillies vs Dodgers...on YouTube. Never thought I would see that
       printed in a newspaper.
       Note: My mom works at an arboretum and they get the paper and I
       was looking through the most recent one (from the 15) and it
       said game today at 12:35 on YouTube (and a home game for
       Philadelphia).

       We are in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge this weekend. It is certainly
       a tourist Mecca on par with Branson, Wisconsin Dells, Myrtle
       Beach, and the Canadian side of Niagara Falls!  We did not do
       the Ripley's museum, the upside down house, the Dolly Parton
       Stampede, or the Hatfield McCoy dinner but those do lend a
       flavor to the place.  LOL.  Actually we had a blast so far with
       a big chunk of the day at Dollywood on Saturday and then
       spending Saturday late afternoon and night riding mountain
       coasters, eating decadent foods, and enjoying some incredible
       views.
       It would be difficult to do this area on the cheap but it does
       have a lot to offer beyond the tourist trap stuff.  Today we are
       back at Dollywood for opening and then fly home to the real
       world late Sunday afternoon.  It is quite an area.  There really
       is something for almost everyone here and certainly plenty for
       enthusiasts.

       Since I still don't know Dollywood's 2020 hours yet so this is a
       theoretical plan that Opening Day (most likely if it happens at
       all) would full day at the park and then head to the Nascar
       Speed Park for that credit, with the Jurassic Boats and The
       Island on Sunday (and probably not a full day at Dollywood), and
       Anakeesta Monday. Currently, I would plan to go down Friday and
       go back Wednesday, but wouldn't mind flying back Tuesday if
       things go that way.

       Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg is a hopping place in general and has 20
       credits available for enthusiasts.  Check out these:
       Dollywood
       Rocky Top Mountain Coaster
       The Island
       Smokey Mountain Alpine Coaster
       Goats on the Roof
       Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster
       Rowdy Bear Gatlingburg
       Rowdy Bear Pigeon Forge
       Anakeesta
       Ober Gatlinburg
       NASCAR
       
       Most of these except Dollywood are open pretty late each night
       so much can get done in a couple of days.  It certainly is a
       pricey place though.  Getting all these credits will run in the
       $200-$300 range.  Good luck on your trip.  Now that we have done
       all these places, glad to answer any questions yu might have.

       I only counted 18 via RCDB
       Dollywood-9 (Lightning Rod, Thunderhead, Dragonflier, Whistle
       Punk Chaser, Mystery Mine, Blazing Fury, Firechaser Express,
       Wild Eagle, Tennessee Tornado), with a recently removed kiddie
       cred so there are probably people with 10 credits
       Kiddie coasters-2 (Spinning Parrot, Speedway coaster)
       and 7 mountain coasters, but I would only plan to get Rail
       Runner (and the Jurassic Boats, but I would skip if the money
       isn't there) this trip.

       RCDB has yet to add the newest type of coaster that has appeared
       in that area.  Check out the Sky Glider and the Alpine Flyer on
       the Rowdy Bear website.
       I was really looking forward to Rail Runner at Anakesta and when
       you include the cost of the Chondola to the top of the mountain
       it was one of the most expensive coaster credits ever.  It was
       actually very disappointing.  The monorail combined with the
       layout of the track made it rough at high speeds.  The layout
       required extensive braking which diminished the ride IMO.
