Re: Thanksgiving War Stories
Do you remember the Enchanted Forest? That is royal punishment. The Haunted House was so cheesy.

I remember getting stuck at the end of a slide in Enchanted Forest many years ago. It was a tiny slide for little kids but I really really wanted to go down it even though I was a big kid (adult).

I simply pointed the way and smiled.
I don't think she liked that very much.
Kill them with a smile. :D:

Re: Thanksgiving War Stories
I looked up the Enchanted Forest. Things have changed. Read the story about the owner and how they have the company still running.
I told the crew to keep up the good work. I only saw the farris wheel and the cheap mansion. I moved in June of 1981 to CA. I have not had the chance to see how this place ended up.
My other place for fun was Omsi. I think I spelled it wrong. But it was always fun. Also going to the Portland Zoo and being chased by peacocks. My older brother chased them and the birds always seeked revenge on me.
No wonder I have 3 pet lizards. Kim, Chef and Charcoal ;)

Re: Thanksgiving War Stories
OMSI was correct (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry). But now it's oriented more towards kids. Not sure if the name has changed, but I don't think so.

It was OMSI last time I was there, so much better than Orlando Science Center.Whazzup wrote:OMSI was correct (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry). But now it's oriented more towards kids. Not sure if the name has changed, but I don't think so. Big Wallaby might know.

How about the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum, home of the Spruce Goose.kurtisnelson wrote:It was OMSI last time I was there, so much better than Orlando Science Center.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.
