An abandoned fun park slowly decays along the highway in Beach Park. I drove by on my way to Illinois Beach State Park, but couldn’t get it out of my mind. Later in the day, I went back and took some photos.

I wondered how many couples visited on their first dates. I thought about all the birthday parties and father-daughter outings that went here. I could almost hear the echoes of the past. The place is for lease, but it has crumbled beyond repair.
Next to the miniature golf course was a go-cart track and a batting cage.
The thought that kept running through my mind was — “Is there any way I can get that cow for my basement?”









I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t have any problems getting the cow for your basement. It’s getting the cow into your basement that will give you problems.
Hey, I want that cow for my dorm room! Think there’s some way you could ship it down here?
I saw it first!
