This may be one of the few times I was wishing for less to look at. I liked the chairlift: http://www.akasa.ca/vlc/VLCChilliwackShow/vlccw085.html http://www.akasa.ca/vlc/VLCChilliwackShow/vlccw089.html (and others) ... can you give more info on it? It appears that it actually operates? As for this one: http://www.akasa.ca/vlc/VLCChilliwackShow/vlccw094.html I've never seen a wrecked bridge before... was that track deliberately distorted or did you have an accident (someone stepped on a piece of my track and I have one bent up piece, but not that bad) and decide to use it? (something is about to happen to those canoeists as well!) I think you hit your goal of "something different" all right. Very nice.
