I have finally added photos to the Sea World section of the site.  Photos from the Six Flags Wild Life days are also included in this section. You can check them out here. http://www.geaugalaketoday.com/Sea_World.htm I have also added pages to the Head Spin and Thunderhawk pages. http://www.geaugalaketoday.com/Head_Spin.htm http://www.geaugalaketoday.com/Thunderhawk.htm _________________ On September 21, 2007, a historic 119-year old amusement park had been secretly murdered.

I have a lot of great memories of both sides of the lake and have heard people talking about that dolphin statute twice in recent months. I also like that shot of the Shamu blimp, that would be quite a site. _________________ "It's a very special ride. We want to make sure it has a proper home."

I took that one many years ago.  I used to love that blimp.  I wonder whatever happened to it.  When I was younger I lived by Akron Fulton Airport where the blimp would stay while in town, and for 2 or 3 years straight it would show up opening weekend. _________________ Rob G. - Sea World Ohio and Geauga Lake Fan.

Sorry for the double post... But Chad did you ever see the 2 or 3 times when all 3 Goodyear blimps were in town?  Now that was a sight to see them in formation. If I can find the news paper clippings... ill try and bring them to the next meeting. _________________ Rob G. - Sea World Ohio and Geauga Lake Fan. The end of an era came Sept 21, 2007.
