Anyone remember this? I think it was just south of Princes between it and the Granada Movie Theatre. Wasn't it the place that had the boat rides? I do remember ponies.

Connie ,I believe it was the Granada FIRST , then a vacant lot , then Princess Drive Inn , then the park with the silver airplane ferris wheel , boats , etc. on the corner of Tidwell . Further north , before Edgeworth Street was the pony rides , right across the street from the Epsom Downs Drive Inn . I remember , after they raced horses at Epsom Downs , they raced dirt track jalopies , then they made it into a drive inn movie . Jarrell
