circumstantial tree Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 When we visited the park though I didn't think it would be crowded like it was. Neil made it seem in the song like the place had been abandoned. And it probably was in the 70s but maybe was renewed and people started coming back. We went down to the lighthouse and pier. I don't smoke, but those that did smoked a few cigarettes so that they can say they smoked on the pier like in the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mery-Go-Round was fun, but the walk to the lighthouse was a killer in that heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up getting this overly sweet koolaid kind of thing. It did not refresh me! I should have gotten water like everybody else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
