Description: At the turn of the millennium, there were signs. Was there something out there? A higher intelligence, a mysterious force at work. Beyond words. Beyond comprehension. Beyond, beyond. What will the new millennium bring? In theory, a shadowy construct fathomed by scientists at their wit's end of the quest of the answer to everything. Beyond time. Beyond space. Beyond gravity. Beyond dimensions we understand. A natural force simply known as, Millennium Force. Somewhere, racing along the edge of the time space continuum in the universe as we know it. It's out there. Millennium Force. The future is riding on it. Gravity knows no force like Millennium Force. Photo taken in 2020.
Description: Standing tall for over 32 years, Vortex took it's final rides in 2019 before being retired suddenly. Missed by many, Vortex left a gaping hole at Kings Island, both figuratively and literally. As we wait to see what the park replaces it with, we hold onto the fond memories we have of this beloved classic. Photo taken in 2019.
Description: There is nothing wrong with your equipment. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the transmission. We can control the horizontal, and the vertical. We can deluge you with a thousand channels, or expand one single image to crystal clarity and beyond. You may not interfere with our communications. We repeat, there is nothing wrong with your computer system, for the next few moments, we will control all that you see and hear. Please stand by. Photo taken in 2019.
Description: Since opening in 1960, the "Heaven Room" scene in the Calico Mine Ride has been once of the most impressive reveals in the amusement industry. With it's gloriously spectacular stalagmite and stalactites, forced perspective of endless caverns and pits, all while accompanied by a beautiful musical score, the Heaven Room leaves an impression like no other. Now you can take this sight with you on the go or use it for home decor. Photo taken in 2020.
Description: Many know of Dale Earnhardt Sr's nickname as "The Intimidator," but did you know that Dale also carried with him a lesser known nickname? Indeed it's true! Ironhead was bestowed upon Dale by Bobby Allison, though it took on more meaning in the 70s when shrapnel became buried in the skin of Dale's temple. It wasn't removed for 25 years. Photo taken in 2022.
