After The Boss it was time to take the lovingly restored Grand Ole'
Carousel for a spin.

One thing that has been on the parks "To Do List" is to eventually
enclose this classic carousel so the horses can be protected from
the elements. With Enchanted willing to invest in their parks
(the CEO James Harhi said "if you are not growing you are dying")
hopefully these works of art are enclosed sooner rather than later.

Last year during the reopening of the Grand Ole' Carousel I was told
that the rides two two chariots would return this year. They
have not yet made an apparance but Danny did say that they are still
being worked on and once they are back on the ride there will be
another grand re-opening of this classic carousel.

Here's Jacen and myself enjoying a nice go around on the merry go
round.

Six Flags St. Louis brought this classic back to life on a
shoestring budget. Just imagine what they can do when being
owned by a chain that actually wants to invest and grow the park?
