The last time I went to Dollywood was fall of last year
while on a four-day trip in the Great Smokey Mountains.
The first ride of the day was “Thunderhead”.
Since I love rollercoasters I was all excited because
I’d never rode it before.
Me and my uncle Jim got in the very front
and my uncle Bill and cousin Danny got behind us.
Photographers and a film crew were there filming
a new DW commercial, so I may be on TV.
Anyway-when the ride started I had my right foot braced
on the side of the car and apparently I was bracing toooo much.
When I got off the ride I could only hobble because I’d sprained my ankle! That wasn’t any fun.
I went to ride the train I think the one for that day was named “Cinderella”. After the train-ride was over I was hobbling alongside the train and I saw the “conductor” getting off the train. I asked him if I could take his pic with the engine for my little brother and he said,”Sure, but I might break your camera.” Most of the people I ask to take a picture of say that, but there was no way that this man could break a camera. He was sooo “charming”-I guess that’d be the only way to describe him. :) Anyway, I took his pic and that kindof cheered me up after my little ankle episode on the Thunderhead.

If you go to Dollywood make sure to take a ride on one of their trains! And say “hi” to the conductor for me… ;)
