At WDW, they served as a wonderful kinetic link between Liberty Square and Frontierland, looking appropriate from the riverbank of either land.

Not sure what they are doing with it, when I saw it, it looked like they are shoring up the hull. I'm guessing it will end up back where it was, just not sinking... How cold would that be if it ran on the river again!!!!!!<br /><br />Thanks Major!Vintage Disneyland Ticketshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14790755040005517146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-39677105934654602692009-06-22T08:45:23.094-07:002009-06-22T08:45:23.094-07:00does anyone know if the Gullywhumper was raised fr...does anyone know if the Gullywhumper was raised from the river?<br /><br />i was at Disneyland (first time in five years) last week, and driving on the parking tram, i saw a keel boat in the backstage area.<br /><br />i didn't head into that area of Frontierland later so i didn't see if it was still half submerged in place.<br /><br />sure would be great if they would restore that...thepicklebarrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00257806661675722436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-52296152777848664522009-06-22T07:09:38.395-07:002009-06-22T07:09:38.395-07:00Beautiful boat and lots of great cars.Beautiful boat and lots of great cars.The Viewliner Limitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730924067419581447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-78104239536267233582009-06-22T06:20:37.866-07:002009-06-22T06:20:37.866-07:00Since many of the images here were probably shot i...Since many of the images here were probably shot in Kodachrome, I thought you might be intrested to know that Kodak is stopping production of that film.<br /><br />http://homepage.1000words.kodak.com/default.asp?item=2388083Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-60133318570522679222009-06-22T05:08:06.102-07:002009-06-22T05:08:06.102-07:00Great keelboat shot!

I loved that attraction -- in addition to being a more close-up-and-intimate way to see the ROA than the Mark Twain or Columbia (and less work than the canoes), you'd occasionally get a really funny skipper who'd do a Jungle Cruise-style improv routine.mr wigginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05690712121710850903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-5723514967766943042009-06-22T04:58:42.977-07:002009-06-22T04:58:42.977-07:00*woot* the parking lot. a happier monday morning s...*woot* the parking lot. a happier monday morning surprise there never has been. thanks a ton.Thuferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692445357659425688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-22696979160820015552009-06-22T04:57:29.765-07:002009-06-22T04:57:29.765-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Thuferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692445357659425688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-67734966720168246972009-06-22T03:56:30.304-07:002009-06-22T03:56:30.304-07:00Yup, most of those classic cars were junked in a f...Yup, most of those classic cars were junked in a few years; after all, there would always be newer and better until we all move on to future rocket age hover cars, right?<br /><br />...how that has gone...<br /><br />Love the keelboat pic!
