Summer is here – 2008
Well summer is upon us, and the old park is again overrun with vegetation. This makes it all very hard to distinguish what is what, and also difficult to measure things with so many leaves in the way.
There was a recent article in “South Coast Today” about the impending doom of the remainder of the park, as well as progress on the redevelopment ( see http://www.southcoasttoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080625/PUB02/806250419/-1/TOWN1502 )
So now it looks like September will usher in the first phase of building, and who knows what will happen with all the rest then. Perhaps we get another season (after the leaves have fallen) to continue documenting things, perhaps it will all just be leveled. Who knows, but I’m hoping that it is all hidden enough to stick around for one more season, and that the main construction is far enough away to let it be.
In the mean time we continue to paw through our notes, and keep updating things. Jarad has picked up on the station components of the Anatomy section, and so far it looks pretty good. I’ve been busy crunching numbers to make sense of the coasters dynamics, and will undoubtedly try weaving this information into the site where it all makes sense
