Back to the Bedrocks of B.C.
No sooner do I post about Kelowna's Bedrock City do I discover another set of photos from the same trip, taken by Dad. And look, I'm even carrying the camera I complained about last time.
Dad understood, as I did not back then, that photos with people tend to be far more interesting than photos of random scenery - unless, of course, you're a professional photographer, a gifted amateur, or really lucky.
They really should have cut holes in the floor so kids could exhaust themselves driving around the park.

The Bedrocks of B.C.
Sometime in the early 1980s, the Woods family travelled to Kelowna, British Columbia to visit Aunt Jean and Uncle John. While there we visited Kelowna's Bedrock City, one of two Flintstones-themed parks in British Columbia that thrived for a few years and then vanished.
A stone helicopter would require tremendous lift! These photos were taken with a pretty primitive camera, one that seems to have allowed some light to leak into the film compartment, because every photo taken with it features a reddish smear near the top of the frame.
That's Bamm-Bamm and, I guess, Dino, enjoying a bit of fishing near a volcano.
Another view of the pool.
Guests could ride the train through town.
Naturally, this station only played rock music.
