LOVE it. This makes me nostalgic for the old parking and entrance. I do miss being able to park right in front of the gates...but I wouldn't trade the new stuff for it. - JinglePoe

My condolences for your Husbands unfortunate accident... 😜 - BambooMike 129.3 #2639 2:44PM
What happened?? - PrinceTeaJack 804.2 #120 2:51PM
From what I've heard Mr. Hatbox worked in the Haunted Masion when it first opened, but was relieved of his position soon after due to technical issues. I guess he was "a head" of his time... It's my attempt at a Hatbox ghost joke... 😔 - BambooMike 129.3 #2639 3:06PM
Haha Thanks! =P - MrsHatbox 207.5 #1564 4:16PM

How awsome would it be to park that close still? Oh well times change. The walk is totally worth it! - Disneymomab

I LOVE this pic! Thank you for sharing Scooter Mike! I just adore classic cars! If gas wasn't so darn expensive I'd be driving one as my everyday driver! - Duchess_SMK

I used to drive classic cars regularly. Now I have my daughter and drive a modern car. - ScooterMike 1959.8 #37 4:45PM
Isn't it weird that they didn't have seatbelts?! Lol we have a chevy biscayne sitting in our driveway right now but hardly drive it because of the kids. - Duchess_SMK 3540.7 #10 5:29PM
I put seatbelts in my 1959 Edsel when I had the interior redone. My other classics don't have them. They were not required until 1968. Old cars are grandfathered. - ScooterMike 1959.8 #37 5:52PM
Cool picture! Didn't CM park to the right of the entrance? - snappy
