Creator's Key Takeaways
Thank you so much to Dollywood for inviting us, getting to hear from Dolly for a straight half an hour of her being hilarious, amazing, and just a treasure.
We're so excited for this ride to open this year.
The energy in the park is amazing today. We saw so many friends. We've made so many Smoky Mountain friends.
Dolly is so Dolly. She is so classic, so iconic, so just a queen. We love her.
