so peaceful

l love this pic.

it reminds me of the munsters and l could never imagine somehting so big.

Amazing to what you find Motts... l have seen some pics on here the last weeks and spent 2 hours or more looking at them... not many places like that in Australia

would love to take a walk up there.... and its so green....

I love this photo and the colours and so bright.

I had to run here for a race not that long ago. a terrifying place to be. My coach wouldn't let us run alone. We had to be in pairs constantly. The scarriest thing i've ever been through. I mean that.

Thanks Mott for an awesome but sad memory of the Magnificent Hartford Drive In ~~ as the back of he screen said WE WILL MISS YOU MR. B and we shall carry the memories of drive ins everywhere... with us forever.. an era forever gone

Wonder how much $$ I spent right there of course we were not paying for the people in the trunk of my 69 Chevy Impala

I agree Caroline The high school would have been a better choice

Did you know Mott that Dick Buzzell had been in the theater business since 1935, when he ran a vaudeville theater. And in case you hadn't noticed the goodbye Mr. B painted on the back of the screen. That was painted by the 5 remaining employees of which my sister was one :)

Yeah right across from McD's , Sadness when it closed ..grew up right down the road and lived there most weekends. Fortunately my children experienced it in all its glory before its closing , I can still remember the hot dogs and soda characters dancing across the screen begging you to go to the concession stand . Thx Mott for your pictures of a bye gone era

drive past this place on my way to work every day.

i have mixed feelings about it, i love looking at it, and i love explaining it to the many, MANY tourists in the area that are enthralled by it (i work at a hotel closeby and it certainly generates a lot of interest).

however, despite the beauty of it (and shut up, it truly IS beautiful, free your mind, people) it could be so well suited as so many other things that this area needs. certainly not more indian/casino ground, though (the hospital is on a main road that connects two indian reservations/casinos).

but i must say, i AM glad utopia fell through. there are many things this place would be good for, but a movie studio/amusument park is certainly NOT one of them!

THANK YOU, MOTTS!!!!

This is so captivating really beautiful Motts

I think this is a shower chair I worked in a nursing home and this is what the shower chairs looked like.
