I spent most my 20s living within walking distance of the #SantaCruz #GiantDipper. As a crazy #RollerCoaster enthusiast, I managed to get over 600 rides on it.

This May, it celebrates its 100th anniversary. https://beachboardwalk.com/giant-dipper-100th-anniversary

I live far away now and the nostalgia is heavy. I wish all the best for those lucky enough to attend.
