<p>[QUOTE="lucyray, post: 1204527, member: 24565"]Hi gb. Going along with some of the other posts, I was thinking about parks from the past.. Have you looked for Edgewater Park? Somewhere north of Redford. Not being directional, I can't say for sure it was north, but it wasn't too far from Redford area (maybe out Grand River?) Can't recall, but it was an amusement part way back, and was when I was in high school. I'm sure the last time I was there would have been about 76. Couldn't have been too far from Redford High. Don't know when it closed, but long ago I'm sure. Also, Boblo Island comes to mind, perhaps a little closer for you. I know they went out of business, and then someone tried privately to do something with it, but I don't believe they succeeded. For all I know both are condo areas or something now. Surely you know of Boblo? That would be a neat place if you could get permission. Gee, maybe you could find out who got the boats! I have some Boblo Island paraphernalia, and the last time I was there as an adult was about late 80's, early 90's?</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck, and if you come across either of these, I'd be tickled to hear of them and what you found! </p><p><br /></p><p>Lucy</p><p>(Detroit girl!!!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
