NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOO.... That was my favorite ride there :'-(

Wow.. seeing that brings back some memories. I remember going to Rocky Point when I was a teenager (wont say how long ago that was :-S) with my stepmother to be the gold digger and my father, We went on this ride and my stepmother was so scared even though at it highest point it was only about 10 ft off the ground, She screame at the top of her lungs clinging so hard to my father he had almost instant bruising when we were able to undo her death grip...lmfao

I dont think blood and I am nuttier then a fruit cake.. what I think when I look at this picture is someone was trying to entertain themselves and decided to leave a finger paint portrait in poop.

ok anything that could possably stick out from the slat at the bottom of the door that could expell body fluids would be fair game to my boots.. Call me abusive, I myself have worn every body fluid known to man ......but........yuck.. the thought of some poor lost soul that has been stuck in a little room with probibly only a bed pan and no shower for god knows how long trying to launch body fluids on me just seriously grosses me out

i went to that building and stood right there one night.....i was with a group if friends and on the left side of that walkway all the bushes started moving like crazy and some white thing shifted itself in and around to the other side....it was really creepy....ive seen too much stuff at that place and most of my friends wont even go up there anymore

OOOOHHH now why cant I have something like that in my living room???

Lynne,
My students are presenting One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest for competition in March. They have begun the process of researching the issues of the sixties as well as life in state hospitals. During 1963, what were an orderlies' duties as well as a nurse's while patients were in group therapy? Also, I don't know whether you are familiar with the play/movie, but the patients range from nonconformists to the ill. What medication was given during this time? I am asking everyone's help here. What were the side effects of the medicine? My kids want to get this right and make these characters human, not caricatures. I have read, with interest, all of the comments. Motts, the pictures are haunting and tell stories. What a talent!

God I love black and white photo's, they can give just the right touch

Could it be possable that the hospital had a day care for employee's or possably one for outpatient care?? I dont know if they did outpatient but.. if there were tricycles and this carriage. My guess would be daycare.

I post at the old Worcester Hospital with my work and have always stared at the buildings in nothing but awe at the beauty. Looking at this picture give's me a new appreciation for its beauty. Its a sad thing that such buildings are going to waste . It is a relief to see that they are still in ok shape on the in side. Thank you for taking your wonderful pictures.

wasn't there a darth vader and planet of the apes car as well?

Kudos mott. This is the neatest pic I've seen yet on your site. Been stuck in this site for two days now, hehe.

No, my darling one. :-)

Look's like humans spirit over there.

THANK YOU!!! You have a picture of a Hydrotherapy tub. This is going in the archives for good.
