It was ony a 35 minute ride from my hometown, Baytown. <BR/><BR/>Then my ex-husband was a concessionaire there he owned the caricature, temp tatoos, and airbrush shops there. Then 2 years before they closed down they dropped his contract. It was sad he had other parks by then but they were still the major part of his income. They had been struggle for years so the close was not shocked to me because I saw the internal workings or non-workings in the park. <BR/><BR/>Man I miss the things that make Houston Houston and it seems more and more things are dissapearing. <BR/><BR/>-OGOG, The Original Glamazonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17041450250560458185noreply@blogger.com
