Wild Adventures 2003 Construction Pictures?

I've been looking everywhere for construction pictures from Wild Adventures for their two new family coasters and was wondering if anyone here had any from 2003 so far. With the great park being open year-round, I'm surprised more enthusiasts are not visiting (or hopefully they are :)). I think Fiesta Express is already open and Swamp Thing (Vekoma junior invert) should be finished soon as well. Thanks!

I was at the park for the ACE event Jan. 19 and 20. Fiesta Express was already open and I got my ride on it (Cha-Ching!). I took a couple of pictures of the Swamp Thing area. As of that weekend, there was only some initial digging and groundwork with a sign advertising a Spring 2003 Opening. Supposedly, construction really stepped up that week, so my guess would be that the structure is partially up but not yet complete.

According to http://www.rcdb.com/quicksearch.htm?quicksearch=Swamp+Thing Swamp Thing will open on March 15...seems like a crystal ball that might be a little *too precise*, LOL...
Okay, here are two pictures I took Jan. 20, just as construction was getting underway. This should give you an idea of where the ride should be by now:

The park told me while they would like to open the ride in March, it would more likely take the first riders in April.

Bump. Still looking... ;)
