Carousel Horse


Day 8  Did you ever sing "I love to catch brass rings on the merry go round.\?" Well I never did catch the brass ring because I was too frightened to reach out that far. I was just a little girl clinging to the horse as it moved up and down. Loved the music. We had some very old beautiful carousels  in  New Orleans as I grew up. There were several  carousels that I remember. Audubon Park, City Park and Pontchatrain  Beach all had carousels plus other amusement rides. When mother bought groceries at the local supermarket we were given free tickets for rides at the park. And there was not a charge for the entrance to the parks. Goodness that must have been a long time ago.  Great summer and week end fun!
