Mr. P.'s Tales from the Road - S01E10 - Chippewa Lake Park - The First Explore

Welcome to another installment of Mr. P.'s Tales from the Road! In this episode, memory jostled thanks to a question from a listener, we go back twenty-some years to tell the tale of my first explore of all time; the now defunct, highly abandoned and mostly now-disappeared Chippewa Lake Amusement Park in Northeast Ohio. We'll talk about the history of the park, how it got abandoned in the first place and tell the story of our explore there all the way back in 2000, before the age of digital when you had to get the fifteen shots you could get on a cheap film camera developed at Walmart! Settle in with a beverage of choice, something tasty to nosh on and tune in for the story! -Mr. P. Also, as promised in the episode, here are the archives from what's left of Andrew Henderson's "Forgotten Ohio" page, which got the ball rolling for me in the late 1990's. (Andrew, if you're still out there, you have my undying thanks!): Archives: https://web.archive.org/web/20180811143304/http://www.forgottenoh.com/ The majority of my work gets published at the Mr. P.
