This is my 6000th post on this site. It was a good run, but if it isn't obvious by now I've migrated what little online activity I did perform over to Bluesky. I'll keep sharing (throttled) website links here, but I'd highly recommend making the jump as a New Year Resolution.

The 2023 Southeast U.S. Tour concludes with today’s chapter to the Otherworld immersive art experience in Columbus, Ohio. If you haven’t heard of Otherworld, it’s essentially a Big Box Meow Wolf in more ways than one (complimentary).

The penultimate chapter returns to an old favorite, Kings Island. Last time I reviewed this park was in 2009, so it made sense to revisit it for the new rides since then, as well as updated thoughts on Diamondback and The Beast after all these years.

I like weird old parks. West Virginia has a gem in both those categories in Camden Park. This turn-of-the-century trolley park is literally built around an Indian burial mound, and has one of the best old school spook houses around.

@ThemeParkLore The CA Avengers attraction went from a reasonably focused storyline to everything everywhere all at once, so this evolution seems to track.

@ThemeParkLore @MarioGraciotti What's weird is that Hong Kong's Tomorrowland is one of the least grounded, most googie versions of the land, but now the entire back half is becoming a brutalist campus for defense contractors.

[Jeremy Thompson @RCPhilosophy]

@ThemeParkLore Given the marquee, is this even still a Spider-Man attraction, or an Avengers attraction starring Spider-Man?

This feels like a case of getting new direction from the suits at the top since it was previously announced.

Settle in. This review of Busch Gardens Williamsburg is a long one, covering two days at the park with some planned and unplanned detours, including way back into the past.

The second Cedar Fair park and the second giga coaster in as many days. After last week’s Fury 325 hot take, how would the much more forceful Intimidator 305 fare?

Carowinds had what was easily my most anticipated roller coaster of the entire Southeast trip. But it was also the one that ended up most different from my expectations. Was that good or bad? Read on to find out…

Today’s update starts in Gatlinburg, TN, then makes our way across the landscape of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, with a stop in Asheville, NC near the end of the day. Mountain coasters, museums, mini-golf & nature.

Many cite Dollywood as their favorite theme park. I'm partial to Silver Dollar City, but a park among the best in the country, yet has some challenges but also a handful of my favorite coasters, is my favorite kind of park to write about.

The next stop along the southeastern road trip is to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, home to a multitude of mountain coasters and countless other attractions. I’m sure I only scratched the surface.
