BOY I remember my heart beating faster and faster as THE C.R.L...BUS took us passengers across the bridge for an exciting day of fun and frolic at our PLEASURE BEACH.IT was great getting off the bus and smelling the popcorn brewing and walking through the overhead arcade watching the folks make cotton candy and candy apples one of my favorites for sure.I can smell the grease as the French fries were cooking and the mouth watering look of the large soft icecream cone as we walked-along heading for the ticket booth.THERE were lots of rides for various age groups.This was the place to be as a kid in the late 40's and 50's.I remember most of all the screaming people on the ROLLER COASTER as it dipped and rolled quickly along making its'turns etc.ALSO I recall THE SPOOKY HOUSE and the WHIP and the MERRY GO ROUND and the little boats ride and the airplane rides wow life was at its'fullest back in the day.WE would spend all day there.IT was our FANTASY ISLAND.NOW its'only a vivid memory of what was once our great adventure park.Anyone with great memories of the PLEASURE BEACH ERA please write me at rsauthor00@gmail.com.THANK you to all my readers.Stay safe and healthy as we go forward.
