When I travel, if there is a carousel to be found, I can be found riding or photographing it. This lens will have some information, but mostly it is a shopping lens to point the way to some lovely painted ponies and carousel art for collectors to decorate their home.

Washington, Spokane ~ Riverfront Park ~ 1909 Loof Carrousel
100 year old carrousel! Riverfront Park's 1909 Looff Carrousel is on the National Register of Historic Places and is one of America's most beautiful and well preserved hand-carved wooden carrousels. Spokane's Looff Carrousel features 54 horses, 1 giraffe, 1 tiger, and 2 Chinese dragon chairs. July 18, 2009 is the 100th Year Celebration! Having seen this lovely face-to-face, I certify that it is a wonderful way to spend the afternoon.
