I remember it from when I was a little girl, when it was in it's glory, before it deteriorated into what it has become now. Your day sure was a hodgepodge of experiences, topped off by the guy at the gym... Thanks for reminding me why I prefer to exercise in my basement instead of at the Y. ;o)Dorothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12877365453453071691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18784445.post-61215455049463069522008-01-29T08:20:00.000-05:002008-01-29T08:20:00.000-05:00The treatment you gave the photo adds to the eerin...The treatment you gave the photo adds to the eeriness (is that a word) of your day...

There is a lot of *redevelopment* taking place now, but it's from outside - from people with millions to spend on a weekend or summer place and won't benefit the community at all, I don't think.<BR/><BR/>Rabbit's Guy: Earl - who's Earl?<BR/><BR/>;-)<BR/><BR/>Mary: Oh.. no.. he needn't have ... just too funny!LauraHinNJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08329387562570495570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18784445.post-79373444366015779682008-01-28T23:29:00.000-05:002008-01-28T23:29:00.000-05:00What Susan said.

It was one of my favorite places in the mid '60s. I heard the Jefferson Airplane there in 1969. I flirted with lifeguards there in the summer when I was 16. How sad it is to read that it has fallen into such bad times and emptiness. It was a very lively and kid-friendly place once.<BR/><BR/>Yes, that does sound like a weird Monday.
