The disasembled Ferris Wheel ride. Kiddieland Amusement Park. Melrose Park Illinois USA. November 2006.

The disasembled Ferris Wheel ride with a freshly painted superstructure. Kiddieland Amusement Park. Melrose Park Illinois. November 2006.

I took this photo on My way to work one morning in early November of 2006.
Kiddieland closed for the season every year at the end of October. This is a behind the scenes view of the park at the begining of the "Off Season". The parks Ferris Wheel ride was just disasembled at some point the week before. It is shown here glistening in a coat of fresh silver paint. I could smell the paint fumes from where I was standing in the east parking lot. Yes...I briefly trespassed to take this photo.
