Vanishing Tucson

I belong to the Yahoo Group "Vanishing Tucson". It's an interesting mix of people who have lived here a long time, newcomers, old-timers, and travelers. There are memories shared of places long gone and alerts about places about to be lost. Various members of the group are photographers and enjoy preserving Tucson photographically.

Yesterday we were able to go to Magic Carpet Golf to photo-document what may become a parking lot instead of an enchanting, crumbling place of memories to be made.

As a quilt artist I was interested in the textures and colors. My contribution to the photographic history is in this Webshots album:

I would very much like to see some of the structures moved to a park where children and adults alike can continue to enjoy them.
