The answer to the most often asked question

Ask anyone who works in a theme park and they will tell you the most common question that guests ask is "Where's the washroom? To try and make it less so it is important we make some highly visible signs. We'll do that while still having the signs fit into the theme of the park.

The signs will be routed from Precision Board high density urethane and then painted up to match the rest of the park.

Even with the highly visible signs on the doors of all the washrooms it is still my bet guests will constantly ask where they are. :)

New territory

With the bumper boat pool, mountain and trading post concrete done it was time to move on to a new area at last. Today we started work on the rockwork that surrounded the ferris wheel. This whole end of the park will sport a western theme with grand canyon style rock rather than the dirt banks and rounded rock.

This new style is new territory. As always it is fun to add something different to our bag of tricks.

In with the new

Our old paddle mixer has been feeling it's age for some time. It has served us well for more than twenty years. When it was last painted we chose lavender to remind those who operated it that it was indeed a 'purple people eater' and dangerous if not respected.  It has outlived two electric motors and is on the second gas powered one. It is caked with concrete so thick the purple no longer shows through. The paddles are bent and of late the bearings are so worn it makes quite the racket and wobbles more than a little. Rebuilding it doesn't make much sense. It was time for a new one which arrived today.

The new one is heavy duty, shiny and very colorful. Hailey asked me what it's name is as all of our big tools have a name. There was only one possible name it could proudly wear...   JULIUS.  :)
