Oh shoot, it's fine. It'd cost me too much in gas to get there and back every day anyway.

I used to live in Florence, Ky and work at KI. It was about an hour drive each way. It was worth it. I love people and kiddos and "HB east" was the best job I have had!!

^I think they call it East Pie now. I got sent to West Pie the day the hurricane pulled in. They called all of our rides and told us to shut it down and return paper work and "get out!". So exciting!

Yeah Hb east is what they used to call it. It was called east pie when I worked there. Reptar, I loved working that ride it was the best!

^That's cool. I thought it was fun working with all of the little kids rather than adults and teens at SOB/FD.
