pictures

While working on a project I came across these photos.

This first one is of my brothers ex-wife and I at Disneyland 1973. I was so excited to be there you can see it in my arms. I remember this picture being taken and I was actually excited to ride on Its A Small World for the first time.
Go figure.





The next is from the robot in La Cienega Park 1970. Thats me at the top.


For those who grew up in Hollywood in the 70's there was Bevery Park. It was the local amusment park located where the Beverly Center stands today.It had a rollercoaster and a funhouse. It also has a boatride that was 5 or 6 boats that road around in a circular tented pool. In hindsight it was a very depressing place but for a little kid it was very exciting. The rollercoaster was my favorite. The ponies were my least favorite. My sister worked at the ponyrides. Thats me on a pony 1970.
Im allergic to ponies.

Yet another local spot on La Cienega called The Fish Shanty. This building had a giant tile whale as the front entrance.1970.
