\\ HALLOWEEN SPINSANITY \\…read more Six Flags' resident DJ has taken over the relatively tame Chubasco and turned it into something truly.....sinister. For one month out of the operating season, SFGAm's teacups ride transforms into one of Skrillex's nightmares. The windows get boarded up, lights go off, music goes on, and the mayhem begins. If you thought spinning teacups in a fully-lit environment was disorienting, well amigos you ain't seen nothin' yet! Back in 2009, Six Flags revamped the former 'Terror Twister' to the state it's in now, which is a HUGE jump from its prior version. This included putting together a deeper soundtrack, creating heavier fog, adding hi-beam laser lights, and replacing the scanner-type lighting to all LEDs. Also, they synchronized the lights & fog to the music and increased the overall ride's duration. There are allegedly 8 unique ride experiences, all with different songs and lighting arrangements. Take note though, the line moves *very* slowly. Capacity is not this ride's strong point, and coupled with the lengthened ride cycles, prepare to wait upwards of 35-45 minutes. It's well worth the wait, mind you. TT2: AT4TW is, in this reviewer's opinion, the keystone attraction at Great America's Halloween event. No other ride undergoes as drastic a remodeling as the teacups do--although the 'Rue Le Morgue' bumper cars (normally Rue Le Dodge) are fitted with similar environmental effects like heavy metal, black lights, strobes, etc. An absolutely mandatory ride on your visit to SFGAm's Fright Fest.

I have passed this house a couple of times and was amazed by how cute the house was. I wondered who…read morelived there and what the importance of the house was. The presence of the house seemed intriguing. It had a welcoming presence it. A few months later, my mother was researching Underground Railroad sites in Illinois and we found out that the Mother Rudd House in Gurnee, Illinois was one of the sites. We decided to go to this historical site, which was amazing and full of history in the Lake County Illinois area. The Mother Rudd house was a place that housed travelers in the 19th century, was a place where community events were held, and was a safe haven for slaves who were seeking freedom. Mother Rudd was a mother of 13 children, yet still was able to care for others, including people in her community. The house was amazing with great artifacts and memories that go back two centuries. The hosts were friendly and gave a lot of information about what the Mother Rudd house was used for, and what the Gurnee community was like long ago.Several families donated artifacts from their family history to help one understand legacies of Lake County history. It was great to see others interested in history and restoring historical landmarks. I would encourage young and and old to visit this house and take a stroll down memory lane. It's best to call and schedule an appointment ahead of time.
