MfOjr. Can't ride them like I used to. We will probably head to Carowinds Sunday and ride a few times.
If you haven't, ride The Fury and ride in the first row. It's awesome.

Ridden the Velocicoaster a few times with son and daughter including during its test phase. Pretty wild ride. I’m going to have to try Fury as my daughter said it was great fun.

Rode the Fury at Carowinds a couple of years ago. That was my last roller coaster ride for me. I have three vertebrae fused in my neck and that put an end to coasters.

Of course, a hero surviving Vietnam isn't probably afraid of anything.
Asking again, stories you'd share, past where you left off.
Loved those stories.

Nothing in my size. Said I am not a hero……. But had the honor to have walked behind ones who were. With image of soldiers walking ahead in combat gear. Choked up a little.
