Same attraction, just a different approach and appearance. So the Mine Train could be a possibility sometime in the future.Orange Co Nativenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-9656812939529106372012-03-11T19:18:25.601-07:002012-03-11T19:18:25.601-07:00The film John Carter has an opening sequence in th...The film John Carter has an opening sequence in the old west.Ikon Wolfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-71093521080037546992012-03-11T19:04:33.024-07:002012-03-11T19:04:33.024-07:00OC Native, one of these days I am going to have so...OC Native, one of these days I am going to have some Bear Country construction pohotos to share with you!<br /><br />I wonder if Johnny Depp's "The Lone Ranger" will be the thing that makes kids love Westerns again? I find the tales, legends, and facts of the old west to be a fascinating chapter in American history, but it really does seem to be lost to kids.<br /><br />Can you imagine what they could do if they built a Nature's Wonderland today? But it'll never happen....Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-1984692848620500612012-03-11T12:00:54.496-07:002012-03-11T12:00:54.496-07:00The first photo of the village along the banks of ...The first photo of the village along the banks of the river is now the Hungry Bear and Splash Mountain. <br /><br />It is interesting that cowboys and indians are not very popular anymore. However, that can turn on a dime with just a movie or two that become big. I remember back in 1966 to about 1970 that space travel, space ships etc... was the big thing of interest along with cowboys and WWII. As a kid, pirates wasn't really even on the radar back then (At least in the neighborhood I grew up in Huntington Beach). That is my perspective at least from what I remember of 1966 and earlier. <br /><br />So in 5,10, 15 or 20 years the frontier could make a comeback and pirates will be passe. Who knows. The guy that auditioned the Beatles in 1962 at Decca Records told them they didn't pass the audition and that guitar groups were on the way out anyway. <br /><br />All I know is that Frontierland at Disneyland had more of a feel of wilderness back then. There is a lot more cement now and lot less trees. It would be great if they expand Frontierland and bring back some more of the wilderness feel again. Another Mine Train would be wonderful if they could swing it and find a couple of acres to put it on.Orange Co Nativenoreply@blogger.com
