This one is beautiful. Carousel horses and other figures are like works of art. I hope you have a great day, Sandra.

Thank you, Chris! I love carousels too! The one on the boardwalk is a National Historic Landmark, it was built in 1911. Here’s a great article if you’re interested

What an amazing history. Thank you for sharing that, Sandra. In this day and age, it’s hard to imagine a 342 pipe organ being used for an amusement. Have a great evening.

That is so cool, Sandra. Makes you wonder what carousel it was on, and when, and how much joy and smiling, laughing faces it had produced over the years 🙂

Thank you, Peter! I like to wonder like this too. Wondering might be my favorite aspect of photography.

This one’s AMAZING! We in Florida just FINALLY got our stay-home orders today (actually not until midnight). Will be issued for 30 days. Hopefully we’ll start to flatten the curve. Did I mention how much I LOVE this photo? This needs to be an album cover!

I’m so happy you love it, Rachel! You’re so kind. That’s right, I did hear that about Florida. I’m so sorry to hear that but hopefully these new measures will help mitigate the potential fall out. You take good care! ❤
