The Pike was in Long beach and really raggedy by the 1970's, eventually they forced it to close and now there's a spiffy Marina there .
Palisades Park was another one that sort of died on the vine then was used to film super cheap and crappy horror / teenaged angst movies for a few years .
My birthday is early November ~ no party , I plan to ride my Moto .
