LIVIN' ON THE EDGE! (You can't help yourself from falling)

That aside, this place is an awesome find, I wish we had abandoned places this spectacular in Dallas, all I've been able to find so far is an old library, a department store, and some grain silos but they're all in areas that are too busy for actual exploring, though that didn't stop me at the library...

It's really sad but places like this probably don't even exist anymore, especially with all these modern expensive parks.

this is the place. I mistook the hansel and gretal house for here. And my mother took me to the farm where they took lots of the stuff, on the 50th anniversary of EF and me, my mom, my cousin, and my aunt (great aunt actually) stood around the big cake and sang happy birthday. Not as fun as sliding down the shoe!

it closed in 1988 actually.My aunt was crushed. 8 years old ready to make their yearly trip to the Place and found out that They sold it so it wouldnt be open that year. Even more crushed the next year when they said they wouldnt be reopening. Both my mother who was 16 and my aunt who was 9 cried like babies at that.

ok, wrong house, but there is a house just like it somewhere else in the park that is the gingerbread man's house...

actually, this ISNT hansel and gretal's house. It was the gingerbread men's house.Squak. It DID sell ice cream. this was where if u were having a birthday party, you got ur cake! They had a HUGE fake birthday cake. pretty sure this is the house. though it could be the hansel and gretel house. Memories and memories of pictures are very blurry. I think there was a hansel and gretel house with like a jail cell thing. But... now my thoughts are blurring AGH headache!

crystal, havent seen the movie, but I do know that it was in Crybaby. My aunt remembers being there when she was five and running away from my grandmother and up into that tower. It took them 20 minutes to get her down because she didn't want to come down. She said it made her feel like a princess.

*sniffs and blows nose* My mother and aunt had so many good memories there, it makes them cry to see these photos. It makes me cry too. I was 3 and me and my father drove down a rode and saw the castle with the dragon and the king and I was hooked! Went home and forced my mom to look up to see if it was open. not as a park it wasnt. Cried myself to sleep that night. Willy!!!!!! Now, who wants to live there? Just me? Darn...

We have a place over here in the UK called Blackgang Chine,Isle of Wight and these photos remind me of it so much. It is not shut down yet,though a lot of it has fallen into the sea. The last time I was there(a very long time now) I remember seeing sections closed off to the public of rotting cavemen and dinosaurs,even of fairytale creatures.
Oh how I wish I could go back in time armed with a camera!
