I'll be in portland (yay!) on the 14th so can't join....although it has been at least 7 yrs since I've gone back, six flags (in this area) is a little "interesting".... a friend was there recently and someone stole his shoes near the pool/waterpark area....lol.

How did somebody steal a shirt while on a ride!?

For those of you who are single tickets and haven't bought it yet, try to pair up with somebody to buy them in pairs so that you can take advantage of the 2-for-1 special

I don't go on a lot of rides at amusement parks, but I'm good at holding stuff for people.
What kind of rides do you like? Are you still thinking about going?

I purchased mine with Ed a while ago. I think Minimobile and her husband are sharing a pair. Dunno if there's anybody else. I hope we can find one for you...

I just checked online and you can get one ticket for $24.99 if you buy it online.

It's unlikely I'll be going. Dave's parents are visiting and they're leaving on the 14th. I don't know if they're leaving in the morning or the afternoon. If they leave in the morning, I might be back in. I didn't realize how close this was.

I just stumbled upon this posting...you're too funny, PlayPlay !! You know I just can't up and leave my clients/dogs...I wish I could . I'll be walking doggies that day while you all are having fun at Six Flags . Why can't this be on a weekend?

well, I went and bought my ticket today, and also got one of the flash passes... I didn't know this, but from reading it looks like we can only use the flash pass once on each ride...

Hey everybody! Please bring your two-way radios in case we need them to rendevouz in the morning or if we decide to split up during the day. So far, it looks like decent weather....keep your fingers crossed!

Please also look for a PM with my cell phone number just in case.

Wish you could join us!

I might suggest that those of us who want lockers should get those first as a place to stash our extras.

I thought I'd let you know I will NOT be going. I've had a busy week playing tourist with Dave's parents and while fun, I'm done with crowds for awhile.

Have fun!!
