Never went into the outdoor pool much, it was ice cold. I stayed mostly in the indoor pool area as a kid. I so miss it.

All the white in this, gives it a clean look to it. I like this shot.

I wish I knew what state this place is in now. I know parts of it have been demolished, but is the whole place gone now?

tile42guy, did you mean the Overlook Hotel? That is the name of the one from the Shining.

I wish this place looked like this still, but time has not been kind to the Pines & neither have people for that matter.

Well at least those who took the keys from this place have something to testify its existence to future people,since it doesnt seem like whomever tore it down bothered to salvage anything from it
