It's definitely not in the same class as the Los Angeles or Orpheum Theatres in downtown LA that I've shown you photos of - the Park looks like it was built in the wild west for use by cowboys and ranchers and their ladies :) The show I went to had 2 Charlie Chaplin movies and a Charlie Chase short - very funny! They were accompanied by a live piano player who was very accomplished and friendly.
After the movie, I went to see the Stanley Hotel:

It opened in 1909 and was Stephen King's inspiration for the spooky hotel in his novel "The Shining" (the movie version starred Jack Nicholson). It's still in use today (quite swanky) and is in beautiful condition with amazing views out to the Rocky Mountains. I even bumped into some elk grazing around the parking lot!
More photos to come. Enjoy!
Looks really swanky (or "posh" as the Brits say!).
ReplyDeleteLooks like a pretty friendly elk!
