Slight chance?

Silverwood is saying that DV will open in July. This is long after the parks opening day.

They have 5 months still to meet that deadline. I am sure Silverwood has already prepped the land area where this will go.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

No, visible, deconstruction took place today, although I am not surprised in this weather, BRRR!. It is really hard to get any good pics of the loop. It should be a lot easier to photograph the Cobra Roll and Towers once those start to come down. I've got a couple good locations I can go to to get some good pics of those parts.
This is where I would usually put stuff. Can't think of anything right now... =/

Yeah, I'd hate to have to start tower deconstruction today.

The bottom piece of the loop thats connected to the tower may take a tad longer with all those pesky brakes and stuff on there.

Thanks for the pic Jon!

Why in that 3rd photo is Tower 1 grey?

/\ Ok, that makes no sense to me. Tower 1 looks gray cause it is being taken down. :? Also, I don't see the gray in tower 1 in any of the pictures, if I'm missing it, it's probably due to the angle of the picture and the sun cause an odd color contrast and making things seem as they aren't.

The GP is probably confused about what is happening to Dejavu right now.

"OH NOES! The big green coaster is being taken down!" :lol:

One thing I have to give Vu, other then being a great ride, is it really added a nice amount of contrast to our skyline. Now it's gonna be nothing but white, orange, yellow, and brown for our skyline. Nothing that exciting. :(

I'll bet on Opening Day, there will still be a few uniformed GP that actually run to Deja Vu :lol:

^That gives me a great idea. On opening day Im going to sit and film people reactions when they walk up to the path and see a bunch of nothing. Then ask them what they think about it.
