Your 2002 parks
This summer CP, SFWOA, PKI, and a quick trip to Canton..
and then in the fall SFMW and PGA.
I will also have many trip through out the year to my home park EV (Enchanted Village). Thats what you get when you live in Seattle area.
PKI - I usually hit this park every other year. Last time was in 2000.
SFGAm and Michigan's Adventure - SFGAm has become one of my every year parks and MA is awesome for Shivering Timbers alone.
2002 will mark ten years since I've been to PKD and BGW (with a huge emphasis on BGW) and I really want to ride Alpengeist and Apollo's Chariot. Plus throw in Volcano and Hypersonic(as well as the groovy Grizzly) at PKD and that will make a nice one week trip. Don't have a desire to hit SFA as much of their rides are similar to what is closer to the Ohio area anyway.
Must revisit Kennywood again. Loved this place last year.
And a possible trip to Hersheypark and Dorney can't be ruled out.

http://sfohio.tripod.com
Alton Towers - An early season visit in guaranteed, plus I will be aiming for at least 2-3 more trips during the year, I have never made more than 3 trips in a year to Alton due to the position I live in, but prehaps because of Air, I could be tempted to break my record
Thorpe Park - Again, an early season visit in pretty much guaranteed, and because I live nearer to Thorpe, I will be aiming for at least another 4-5 trips in the year
Chessington - Again, an early season trip will be guaranteed to try out Vampire 2, plus probably another few visits along the year
Drayton Manor - will definatly be trying to make my first every visit to the park in 2002, The ECC have a trip planned there so will try to tag along in that, or I will make a trip there on normally with someone else.
Germany at Europa Park, and Holiday World - this is not confirmed, but the ECC are planning a trip to these 2 parks in April 2002 I believe, so will be trying to go along on this trip, so it all depends whether I can get on the trip or not
California June 2002 - This is the big Trip for 2002, I will be going along with the ECC to tour California and we will be taking in every single park in the state, and for good measure, we will also be taking in Las Vegas too. I really cant wait to experience it all as we should be guaranteed riding about 50/60 coasters, Should be an exausting 2 weeks, but it will all be worth it:)
DisneyLand Paris - This is not confirmed, but I have talked to my brother about going here possibly with my little cousin who is 6 years old If we can find the time to go
I know this does not seem like much to some people, But for a person like me, thats a lot in 1 year, PHEW :)
Returning - SFWoA, CP, Probley Conneaut, and maybe SFDL.

Now open Zero-G Thrills, an all new Coaster and Amusement Park Photos site http://zerogthrills.topcities.com/
The way it looks, Busch Gardens Williamsburg might be the first for me in 2002. According to their web site, they are open on Friday, April 5. My wife and I are planning a trip to Norfolk for the hockey games between the Hershey Bears (who's home ice is Hersheypark Arena) and the Norfolk Admirals on Wednesday, April 3 and Friday April 5. We are planning on hitting Colonial Williamsburg on Thrusday the 4th and then Busch Gardens on Friday the 5.
Other parks for 2002: Hersheypark, Knoebels, Williamsgrove. Also, possibly, SFA (still have not yet ridden Superman RoS), a return to Dorney and a return to Kennywood. On the wish list are Waldamere, Coneaught Lake, Idlewild and Delgrosso's (then, with the exception of Sesame Place in Langhorne, I'll have hit all of the "non kiddie" coasters in PA).
