I never knew there was a diving bell playground. I would love to see old pictures of that. Junior, can you tell me more about it?

Translation:  "Hey, old timer, find a working bulb for the slide projector in a flea market somewhere, load up the carousel tray (careful, don't put 'em in upside down), and let's here about the old days.  'Anybody have some Jiffy Pop?"

Thanks Junior! I am always amazed to find out about a bit of SDC that I never knew about. Keeps the place even more magical for me.

If you cruise back through the other photos on the Flickr site, you'll see photos of the front and back sides of the "coin" that kids got for panning for silver in 1977 and 1978 at the RDDB playground.

You and I are less than a year apart in age, so I know what you are saying about the "old days" at SDC. You would have graduated high school in 1981. I'm a 1980 Branson High School graduate.

Yep, class of '81, Hatfield High (Arkiesaw).

Hatfeild High??? What a hoot! Did you fight the McCoys often???? Yes bad joke but it made me chuckle!
