The Boardwalk Bullet at Kemah Boardwalk (About halfway between Houston and Galveston) is one of my favorite wooden Roller Coasters. Big smile Schlitterbahn (About halfway between Austen and San Antonio) is my favorite waterpark (Give yourself three days when you visit her, it's that big). Texas, a fun state to visit. Embarrassed

You should come up here and spend some of your free money...

The Zippin Pippin, formerly called the Pippin, is one of the oldest existing wooden roller coasters in the United States. It was initially constructed in the former East End Park in Memphis, Tennessee, in either 1912, 1915, or 1917 by John A. Miller and Harry C. Baker of National Amusement Devices. The construction material was pine wood. As the park declined in popularity, the coaster was dismantled and relocated adjacent to the horse track in Montgomery Park, later known as the Mid-South Fairgrounds. For a time it was incorporated as an attraction in the now-closed Libertyland amusement park there, until that park closed in 2005. Purchased by the city of Green Bay, Wisconsin, in 2010, it was installed at the Bay Beach Amusement Park,[1] where it is once again in operation.

I rode the Zippin Pippen at Libertyland in 2004 during  an American Coaster Enthusiasts gathering. We also visited Magic Springs in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Their wooden coaster, the Arkansas Twister is also a transplanted coaster, it ran from 1978 to 1986 at Circus World/Boardwalk and Baseball in Florida. I have ridden this coaster at both locations. Smile

PS. Thanks to an overbooked flight that previous December, I got to fly to Arkansas FOR FREE! Big smile

Isn't Trump going to move the wall from Tex-Mex border to Tex-Louisiana/Arkansas/Oklahoma/New Mexico? We're giving Texas back to Mexico, right? At LEAST tell me Mexico traded for Rick Perry, please?
