At the entrance.
"Driving" a little red corovette.
Playing in a mister fountain designed to keep the guests cool.
Aboard Thomas' favorite ride - the bees!
Note: Thomas has a hand on each steering wheel.
The ducks are Thomas' second favorite ride.
More ducks.
Posing with the little blue engine that could.
Shooting balls from a air compressed gun.
More balls. More shooting. (That's Papaw helping Thomas reload).
And yet even more shooting.
Gathering more ammo.
Thomas can't resist a good opportunity to play in the water.
Checking out the water from a nice perch.
Left to right: Wade in the tan, Nana in peach, Thomas in blue, and Papaw in yellow.
Getting sprayed is a great way to stay cool.
Running away so we can't drag him out for dinner.
A quick stop to play like bears.
Hamming it up during dinner break.
And again we find more water. The boy stayed wet most of the day.
Look at these next two pics closely. He's got a rock in his left hand.
And the rock goes into the grate. This action was repeated about 15 times.
Thomas and me on the kiddie roller coaster.
Leaving Dollywood tuckered out.
But not so tuckered he couldn't indulge in a little popcorn on the way.
Yes, Thomas really is that tired.
