Such design and look at all the different styles of windows!
I love the two little round ones at the top of the two arches.

I get the strong feeling that all I have to do is walk a little to my left and somehow I'll be on that path and be able to enter another world that time has almost erased.

The Enchanted Forest, when it was opened, was the first and for some the ONLY thing they'd ever get to see that was like Disneyland.
Hope you get the farm and see it soon!
If you have memories of this place, it is hard for alot of people to see the EF favorites displayed in ways that are new to us, and now, in a totally different location.
But, it is wonderful to see them again, then to see it's love for creativity all decay behind a locked gate.
A BIG thank you to Kimco, for allowing these treasures to be removed off their property. Being the third owners, they weren't the ones who brought the EF to this fate.
They've given permission to the farm to allow things to be removed, at the farm's expense.
So now a new storyteller, has picked up and re-opened a wonderful old book that many thought had been closed forever, locked up, put away, never to be seen or heard from again.
That book has been dusted off, opened again, and now new chapters are being told.
This is the kind of thing that jump starts a child's imagination, and makes them want to learn how to read or read even more. It did that for me, in 1967.
It also inspires those who see it.
To maybe try drawing, painting, make up stories of their very own, or try using a camera to show others how they view the world through their eyes.
It's not just for kids to enjoy, many adults enjoyed the Enchanted Forest's creativity too!
This new scenery, and it's original figures and houses may look alittle different from the classic book of stories told from the original Enchanted Forest, but these are stories and rhymes that should have never ended.
These are stories and rhymes that were and ARE meant to live on, and now they do, at Clark's Farm. : )

Even looks like it has one of those ladders that slide along the length of it, so you can reach any book you want with ease.

Well, actually they're all famous in each of their own way, but this is the kind where you capture so much in one single frame.
Once again, awesome angle! : )

Any ideas what would have been there?
I'm guessing whatever was in the holes was worth taking, but I can't imagine what it could have been.

Bravo to the architect that designed it!
So many different ideas for this structure, and it all blends together so beautifully!
Just amazing, Motts! THANKS! : )
