YodaGirl 13 Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 I came here hoping someone had posted. I've heard reports that it might be collapsing in some areas, but I'm not sure how accurate that is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

momof3kids-Yvonne 594 Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 Scary! Glad to hear reports that everyone is OK. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Memphis 105 Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 We watched the fireworks by the mine train before it open. The wind was blowing strong out of the north like tonight. I could not believe how much debris from the fire works was coming down in the park. We ended up standing under a building after a couple of large pieces of the paper shell fell on the umbrella to the table we were sitting on. They looked like 1/2 of a volley ball and one of them was smoldering when it hit the ground. I am surprised there are not more fires. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 Good to hear everyone's ok. Wondering how long it will be closed down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 I blame Dave. Obviously they were supposed to drop the debris on Mermaid like Dave bribed them to do, but they missed because of the wind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
