If I remember right this is at the LumberCamp....

Yeah, it's the mine cart winch at The Mill/Mine Complex...above the exit pathway of the Mill. I'm glad to see it's still there. I used to love watching that cart go back and forth...I don't know why. Guess it's like watching grandpa move the curtain at the mansion...one of those little touches that make SDC special.

The mine cart is not pulled by a big wheel like this one. I am positive that it is the entrance to the LumberCamp.

Here is a link with another view...

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! My memory needs it's corners cleaned out!

HA! HA!

Dang! Should'a known that was a too easy of'a answer.

rubedugans · July 04, 2010, 10:11:41 PM

I ike to mix them up easy vs. hard vs. obscure vs. where the heck is that. With this close of a game at the top, there needs to be something to separate the players from each other once and a while!

Stay Tuned Folks we'll be right back....

Land of Forgotten crafts area

Good Ole Gene! Started at SDC around 82. Worked at the log cabin building project on the town square. The cabin was to be a showcase of SDC craftsmen. It was to be offered for sale at the end of the year. Never sold. The cabin was moved into the wooded area and now serves as the basket shop. Gene did a lot of different things around park, and his picture for years was on the SDC BBQ sauce bottle you saw in your local stores. He has aged, and last I heard, Gene pretty much restricted himself to the Hospitality House where he hands out pathfinders. Don't know what he's up to now...maybe he's retired. Gene lives east of Branson in a little area adjacent to Lake Taneycomo. Many years ago my wife and I drove through the heavily wooded neighborhood he lives in, and were greeted by a large herd of deer who were only slightly offended we were driving past the yards they were grazing in.

Oh....as for where the sign is placed...um, I'll say somewhere in the vicinity of where the little stream or creek runs along hill street...around the leather shop or gun/knife shop. It's just a guess.

Giant Barn Swing area?

rubedugans · July 05, 2010, 07:01:01 PM

That's the right Gene, not the right place though...I saw Gene just last week at the front of the park greeting people at the Cave desk in the Hospitality House...Keep Guessing

betamike · July 05, 2010, 07:19:01 PM

The signage looks "new" (on a side note...not sure I'm a fan of the screen-printed-to-look-old) so based on where Gene has been hanging out lately, I'm guessing just outside of the Hospitality House heading to the square.

It felt like this was a citizen addition, and not quite an SDC addition. I know it is not there though Mike!
