I'm getting a little too old for theme parks. Rides today are really intense! :giggle:


Now I can handle this below. :)

I've been to Yellowstone and saw Old Faithful and the natural hot springs.... I've been through the Redwood Forest (not sure if that should be capitalized or not)... I've driven the road to Hana in Maui where they have the "sacred pools" and waterfalls which is one of the natural wonders of Hawaii.. I've been to the top of Mt. Haleakala, the inactive volcano on Maui (I think it just became active recently)... I've been to Hanauma Bay, Diamondhead crater.... Have seen the salt flats in the Nevada desert.... Seen volcanoes in the Philippines... Mountain biked through canyons in California... Driven down Pacific Coast Highway... I've been to a lot of beautiful places...

But I'll take a good rollercoaster ride any day!!! (y)(y)(y):D:love::p

There's no doubt that nature and places you know God must have formed with His very own hands are stunningly beautiful.

But I get extreme cravings for speed and adrenaline that aren't going to be met by sitting in the woods for a week, unless, perhaps, I'm doing something like wrangling a buffalo (and I'm not quite that adventurous.)

So if it's a choice between this:



and this:



Guess which one I'm going to choose. :cool:

I dont like touristy places either although growing up the fam DID go to yellowstone. Pikes peak.Garden of the God..Redwood national forest..niagra falls..mount rusmore etc..but i like tge adventure of finding a special place myself :)
As a local I can assure you that both Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods are "touristy." As much as I love Garden of the Gods, I only go there during the "off" season when it isn't ridiculously crowded with out of state plates.
