Where Are The Rides Now?

First off, thanks for all the comments on the post about Opryland USA.  Unreal how much that park played a huge part in our lives.  As I kept reading the posts, people kept asking about where are the rides now.  Well, thanks to Susan Nichols, via FB, she directed me to a website that has where some of the rides are.  
Enjoy!

So, there you have it.  They have found homes, I guess and have moved on to other people.  We should be happy that they are happy.  I don’t know, I am a damn mess right now.
Thank you again Susan Nichols for your help.
