The two mules are probably Sam and Jake, my grandfather's mules that he sold to SDC. They used to pull the stagecoach ride, and here I see they're pulling a wagon. They were very mean mules, and chased us kids around when we visited Grandpa's farm. SDC, though, was a lot better in these days. They had the Western town, with an ice cream parlor, a candy shop, a theater where they played silent films, a jail, shootouts, and lots of interesting sights. Now it's just a tourist trap.
loved it,,,,, thankyou for sharing..
Such fun memories!! I am glad I was a child in the 70's.
Wow! Lotsa memories, at SDC. Grandma worked there, for 20+ years. Spent alot of time, roaming around the park, as a child. Great upload.
I'm glad to see the stage coach and "Float Trip". I remember those rides as a kid and seeing the video brought back so many good memories.
Thank you. Spent some many summers there. Great memories.
