Those Places Thursday - Frontier Town

Frontier Town, early 1990s

In honor of "Those Places Thursday," I combed through my photo collection looking for an image that captured my family at play in a familiar old place.

This photo was taken at a theme park called Frontier Town in North Hudson, NY. (As you can see, my young relative who shall remain nameless is doing time for crossing the sheriff. A warning to all outlaws!)

At Frontier Town, you moseyed back in time for a little taste of the Old West in the Adirondacks. You could see the rodeo, witness a train hold-up, and pick out a special toy pistol to commemorate your visit. (The latter was a must.)

Unfortunately, the park closed in 1998 and has not since reopened.
