    Well I am off to America for the weekend for camping and drinking at the Six Flags park. The Dave Matthews Band is playing so it should be a ripper!

    Six Flags Darien Lake Darien Center, New York

    Darien Lake started in 1964 as a campground. In 1977, waterslides were built over the lake. The first couple of amusement park rides arrived in the next few years. The park was owned by Funtime Parks, but Premier Parks purchased Funtime in 1995. The park was renamed Six Flags Darien Lake in 1999, and Premier Parks was renamed Six Flags, Incorporated in 2000.

    Nightmare at Phantom Cave, an enclosed Jet Star coaster from Schwarzkopf, ran here from 1996 to 1998. It was originally Starchaser (1987-1995) at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, and is presently Nightmare At Crackaxel Canyon at Great Escape in Lake George, New York.

    Hey Aztec, it's just east of Buffalo, NY. off of Interstate 90 (New York State Thruway).

    It's sort of half way between Rochester, NY., and Buffalo, NY., it's about 3 hours drive from Toronto (is that right Beans?).

    Enjoy the show Beans.

    Oooooooh, I've been to Darien Lake! It was several years ago, but we had a fantastic time! We spent the whole time preaching to all the winos and drunks on the rollercosters and other rides, seeing as it was impossible for them to get away from us! We had several bones broken, a few black eyes, and many death threats, but was that too high a price to pay to speak about God's Kingdom to everyone? Of course not!

    I trust Beans, you have your Service Bag with you??? After all, we don't take a "vacation from the preaching work"!!!
