I have tons of pictures. We are redesigning the site so the time machine is off line at the moment. Soon all the pictures from the Time Machine will be posted on the site again.

What are you looking for, I may add a few to this topic if you don't say everything.

We were regular visitors through the 80's and early 90's (UFCW picnic, plus at least one extra trip every year.)...  I'm going through family photos this week or next, will pull out the GL ones I find and get them to Coasterdad.

Coasterdad you have done a great job maintaining this website.  This is the only place to come to relive memories of Geauga Lake the way it used to be.  Thank you.

Thanks bluestreak81. When I created this message board a year ago I saw the writing on the wall.

I also want to thank Gunky for keeping the site alive and all hes had to endure these past several days. It really really hurts.

I just have now words to say about what I felt today! It was sad to see every thing gone. In hope the people that closed Geauga Lake fall into the lake since it is the deepest lake in Ohio! Maybe the big carp fish can get them lol. I need to laugh after today! I am going go to sound off on Fox 8 and give them my thoughts as well!

I'd like to take an opportunity also to thank you CoasterDad... I wish I could have met you yesterday.  I heard a couple people talking about you (some good, some bad) but everyone I'm sure is thankful for everything you've done to help us preserve our memories.

I don't know if it just me, butthis morning I feel like thing are sinking in. I feel so upset. I kmow many will say it was just a park, but it wasn't that to me. It was so much more and the fact that tuesday was the last time I ever will walk on that land again as Geauga Lake is so overwelming....I guess it is all hitting me. My favorite place is gone!!!! There is no saving it now!!!!!
