Looks like the opening scene of Zombieland 2.

Sold for scrap metal? WTF? I saw a ton of useful stuff there that could be re-used and we only had a glimpse.

Must be reeeeeeeally creepy to walk around there.


Around here there is a road that washed out that led to a couple of campgrounds several miles in. Not many people go back in there now and I took my family in for a few days/nights of camping. Strange to be in a silent campground with all the sites and structures but nobody anywhere around. Pretty cool but a bit creepy at times too.

Nature takes control again so quickly.

So expensive to try to recheck/repair/reopen that place without starting over.

I always enjoyed going to theme parks, especially Six Flags when my daughter was younger. The waiting didn't seem very long when we went. The wave pool in Kentucky was on overkill...best ever. It has closed too. The season pass was way less than $100.

It saddens me. It isn't like they were put out by competition. But even without lawsuits and people having less money they must have huge management, payroll, and upkeep costs to run a place like that. I wonder if even the gargantuan Disney theme parks are subsidized by its other areas.

Hope something can help the remaining Six Flags pull through. I haven't grown up yet.

I was thinking dibs on King's Island when everything goes haywire. If some could take it and hold it you could see for miles from that Eiffel tower.

The topic reminds me of Fairyland Park in Kansas City that closed back in the '70s. When I was in high school in the '80s, my friends and I would go roam around there.

By October 2005, the last of the Xanadu houses had been demolished, following years of abandonment and use by the homeless. The Kissimmee house was also featured in the 2007 movie "Urban Explorers: Into the Darkness". It showed the house in disrepair with doors wide open, mold growing everywhere and a homeless man living inside. The "explorers" walked through the house filming the decay firsthand as the homeless man slept in a chair on the main floor. At the end of the segment, the man wakes up and threatens them "explorers" telling them to leave "his home"!
