Just 2 weeks till I head out on my first of 3 US based trips <3 so far I've added 23 new for me coasters. 2003 was the first year I complied my count and 2005 was the first year I started hunting coasters. From the 90's until 2003 I would get to maybe 2 or 3 new parks... 04 is when I started being able to travel on my own, and 2005 is when I really started picking up coasters. I slowed down around 2010 until 2012 because I had moved across the country and started a new job and such... but now I'm back into a routine I guess? Although large numbers of new coasters domestically are rare for me at this point... And my next trip, while visiting some 7 parks only adds....7 coasters, ha
