Rapunzel's Wish

For Ladyhawke

Another rose is added today,
for the one that's now flown away
to be with the one already above,
and as they greet again this day
they hear the strains of radar love

Rapunzel's Wish

Hi Jenn,
It's ok to look through the fence, but Mott's is right, it is illegal to enter the property - and no one wants to ruin it for Clark's Farm. - They are still working on saving what ever they can.
you can vivit the site that Motts posted here too - it has lots of current info. ( thanks Motts!)

The farm always has an E. F. celebration twice each year. One in the Spring, and one in August, near the actual anniversary/Birthday date of the original E. F.'s opening day. This year it's on August 11-12, 2007. They are encouraging folks to bring their old pics from visiting at The E. F. - Once Upon A Time.
Hope you can make it to the celebration!

Lookback

I love the angle you used for this one motts...it is perfect for focusing on those beautiful archways!

Broken Banister

Rapunzel's Wish

The whole stairway with the banister looks out of place to me...like it had originally been in another part of the building, and lifted up and dropped there!

This room is beautiful! I agree with GirlJaye, it looks like it could be swept up and ready for a holiday ball, just in time for Christmas!
It also reminds me a little of the haunted house at Disney World, with the ghosts dancing in the ballroom!

Hope they keep the arches and the skylights when and if they really do renovate! Great shot of this hallway!

The Tea Cups and Tea Pot (seen in the distance) have now been totally restored and are now at their new home at Clark's Elioak Farm.

The Evil One

Rapunzel's Wish

Second from the left reminds me of "Velma" from Scooby Doo! -except she has added a dark jacket to her look. ;)

Possibly they are portraits of the staff -(doctors, etc. - ?)

Thanks luminous star! I love hearing the history of all of these wonderful places.
So glad Motts and others are keeping them alive!

That is just a crime!

Sure hope the Prince of Whales and his Pheonix program can and will restore it to it's former glory!

Curve

Rapunzel's Wish

Sarah...sounds like you are thinking of the kinds of drawings done by the artist, M. C. Escher. The ones where even the stairs are going right side up and upside down...and all at the same time.

was this size room the norm, or were only a few this small?
