saruby was gracious enough to take me to Elitch Gardens in order that I might view (and ride!) the carousel. The carousel I rode is the second Philadelphia Toboggan Company carousel at Elitch Gardens (which has itself moved at least once), purchased in 1928 to replace the original carousel -- purchased in 1908, which is now in use elsewhere in Colorado (I cleverly did not take a picture of the plaque explaining these mysteries, being sure I would remember the details. Silly writer.)
I did, however, take some pictures of the carousel and other points of interest around the park, and, in between hacking my lungs out, I dug them out of the camera.

A follower, but beautiful nonetheless
A monkey, because you can never have too many monkeys
And now...a nap.
