Faded and Gone...

I found this neat link to old tourist attractions in Florida. Most were not in Miami, but anyone living in Florida since the mid-eighties will at least recognize a few of them.

I remember going to Circus World, Masterpiece Gardens, Fred Bear Museum and the wax museum in Miami. At least Bass Pro Shops bought up Fred Bear's stuff to put on display in their stores.

Remember Pirates World? That place was wonderful. Lion Country Safari? And we went north to something called Six Gun Territory. Forget exactly where it was, but it was like an old western frontier town, with train robbers etc.

Six gun territory was in or near Ocala - used to go to it when I went to sleep away camp.
