There was a lot more construction that I thought there was - but i guess it is all for the best...

Thanks for the pics!
Now I just can't wait to go even more!

Great pictures as usual...

I have yet to see you taking pictures around the park...has anyone seen Darkbeer around the park?

OH and Darkbeer, if I may request some pictures of Fantasyland maybe on your next trip, I don't recall seeing much of Fantasyland in your galleries, and not like stuff in refurb, just general Fantasyland pictures would be great! Thanks!

Those be some great shots! How often do you visit the parks?

**Rainfully** · 01-24-2005, 10:06 PM

Ugh... looking at all the stuff that's closed makes me so sad... I know it will be worth it for the final product but can you imagine being there the first time with Splash, Space, HM AND IASW down? Those are like the main core.

Anyways... oooh... rehab pics! *wipes drool from chin* I don't know what it is about tarps and colored walls that makes me feel this way...

Thanks for posting these!! :-)

Hey, I was at the hub at Noon on Sunday, along with Al Lutz, and another great photographer, David L. (He is the main source of the photos you see in Al's updates

If you want to find me, check the Cove Bar at DCA... that is where I can usually be found... In fact a couple of "groupies" found me there on Saturday

Too bad they were married, I would have tried to talk them into moving down from Canada if they weren't attached.... :devil:

Darkbeer...

so what do you do for a living....

how do you find yourself at the parks so often (your profile says u live in sd) I barely make it to the parks about one or twice a month and i'm only like ten minutes away (UC Irvine to be exact):o (although you could prolly find me there just about everyday during peak season as I'm a CM during the holiday and summer seasons)

Is it just me or did the Mickey face planter seem...faded? Looks like they are going to need to replant his face.

I agree, it really did seem faded, but my guess is that since the Railroad station is being worked on, they are not replanting the flowers.... I can pretty much guarantee you that on the 3rd of May, that floral display will be at its best!

The Mickey floral planter in front of the train station was just recently replanted with new, younger flowers. They just have not fully bloomed yet.. Give them a week or so and Mickey will be all bright again....

Wow, looks really empty? Was it that slow, or were you just there at the crack of rope drop?

But, thanks for sharing the pics - I think I'll wait awhile to go when things start to re-open.

Thanks for all of the pics, Darkbeer. They really help during Al Lutz lulls.....

All my photos are date/time stamped, just click on photo details.

This album was done in 2 parts, the first group was taken Saturday afternoon, and a second set on Monday afternoon. Yes, the park seems to be lighter than usual, but it is January....
