Junior, THAT.........is cool! I grew up my whole life thinking that no one else in the world thought that was as cool as I did! Geez, I'd love to work there. We really should organize and pressure the suits to restore that thing as it originally was. With our help, of course. So what was it like to work there? what did you do?

Sadly, even if you were able to visit the Treehouse right up until it closed, you still couldn't go into the Infinity room.  I believe the last "hurrah" of the Infinity Room was sometime in the late 80's.   From that point on, you pretty much went along the same path but skipped that part of the adventure.

If memory serves me correctly though, there was a time when you would briefly exit outside of the treehouse on the top floor and take the stairs all the way down into that last "Infinity Room"

Well here's a link to my short video of the ghost trap at the bottom of the treehouse. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMacd4Va4dQ

I remember walking out the back side of the treehouse and descending a staircase then you went into the infinity room area, you may have even entered through one of SDC man made caves.

Tony from Tulsa, you're little girl, by the look on her face, was not buying the ghost trap at all.  These young kids today, never believing their elders!  On a side note, is she adopted?  We have two adopted daughters from China and I'm always on the lookout for other cuties from the provinces.

Oh good grief!  I meant "your" not "you're".  Yeesh, you would think after 4 years in third grade, I'd have gotten that right.

I took a picture of the Ghost Trap in June, but never knew the thing actually moved!  What triggers it....besides a ghost, I mean?

That's great!  Both of my kids are adopted from South Korea.

I vaugly *I know probably spelled wrong* remember the tree house. I know it was stinkin neat though. I thought it was the bees knees that you could climb up a "tree" from the insides. Then climbling the ropes and rope related walk areas was scary then. How cool! I even remember the ball pit with slides that was where the wax hand man is now. Good times!

If you've seen the new show on Animal Planet - Redwood Kings - you might recognize some of their work:

These guys do work with real wood, and after seeing a couple of episodes and then finding the RB on the website, I have a greater appreciation for this element of the ride.  Take a look at some of the theming projects they have done elsewhere.  From the looks of it, they must have put together the shooting gallery at Branson Landing, too.
