The Wildfire Roller Coaster at Silver Dollar City, Branson, Missouri

Like I have said time and again coasters are a work of art and need to be appreciated as such.

The next time you visit Silver Dollar City head to Wildfire and say hello to Pennie.  As she put it "Wildfire is my ride and has been for seven years".  I love ride operators like her because she takes pride not only in her job but her ride.  Silver Dollar City and Hirschend Family Entertainment may own Wildfire but until the day Pennie is no longer running Wildfire it is hers and she treats all of those who want to visit her ride with that friendly and proud attitude..

Now you can't visit Silver Dollar City and just ride the coasters with what is one of the most well rounded out parks all around you.  There are shows, shops, food (especially the skillets which are heaven) and craftspeople all around the the park so that there is something for everyone to do, see, taste and experience.  Bond and I enjoyed watching this gentleman make pretty much perfect 4 by 4's with nothing but an axe and his eye.  That kind of skill just amazes me and shows you can do anything you put your mind to and decide to work hard at.
