Who is the little kid sitting on top the mountain? Yes - I remember how hot my butt was on this slide!! I don't remember the Pompei Mt. V story behind it but I remember Little Toot and the slide....maybe it's not a kid but it looks like one?

The Whale was from "Jonah and the Whale" and the voice we heard was of Jonah talking about being in the Whale's stomach. I had my 5th birthday party here...I think it was in a birthday cake house. I remember having a girl party host and a midget who played musical chairs and made us balloon animals...we actually called that man a midget..terrible. I remember him like it was yesterday though...he was so much fun! We took "Little Toot" over to get on the side. Pretty sure that's all it was. A big metal (super fast it seemed) slide built to look like we were sliding down a mountain side. I loved this place. Across from the Whale was Humpty Dumpty (he was on a wall).

It was the operating room. My Dad performed surgery here.

It is the operating room. I know. My Dad was a surgeon here.

If it wasn't for the lonely chair, it would be easy to think that the photo was upside down. I don't think I'd be trusting that ceiling!!

Love the title of this pic!

The first full tile up and the 3rd tile in appears to be around the wrong way- to complete the pattern, it should be rotated 90 degrees. You can see that there are four squares in all joins except one!

Wow!!! What a view!

The sunlight and red earth really makes this look like Mars

Yay! First comment :) Powerful picture Motts- makes me feel very small against that machine...

This is an old dragline- you can see the rusting bucket at the base of the hill.

Haha Phiftybuick, I was just thinking the same thing!!

Wow, I love your site Motts!! Just an observation, as you move your eyes to follow the teeth of the gear, it appears as if the gear moves slightly... Creepy!

I love this shot. .. but the pictures make my soul cry. I spent so many summers in the catskills and its sad to see these grand hotels that I remember open now closed and decaying :(

My favorite episode of Twilight Zone !! Well done, Sir !!
