The Cotton Candy Road Trip: Over forty amusement parks, hundreds of rides, thousands of happy people ... and one changed life. - Softcover
What is it about vintage amusement parks that keep people enthralled and coming back, year after year? Is it the rides, the food, the fun – or something else, a “spirit of place” that sets them apart with an element of magic that newer parks simply lack? Part memoir, part travelogue and part serendipitous journey into the spiritual realm, “The Cotton Candy Road Trip” traces author Pam Turlow’s travels to over forty vintage amusement parks across the United States with humor, gentleness, and a sense of playful wonder. The road trip takes place over a two-year period, coinciding with Turlow’s father’s decline of health, and her own soul searching for meaning beyond her monetary confines. Join her on this journey to fulfillment, understanding and the perfect plume of cotton candy.
