NOAH’S ARK CAROUSEL
Portland
"You never forget your first. I can still remember my earliest ride many years ago on this old timey merry-go-round in Oaks Park. It’s a two-deck ‘menagerie’ model with rabbits, kangaroos, and frogs as well as the usual horses."

Before retirement, my first big break came. AAA Via magazine published my favorite carousel PARAGRAPH, both online and in print. $50 and a t-shirt were as exciting to receive as my very first paycheck.
