That was the FIRST roller coaster I ever rode...around 1983, maybe? I took Cale to Miracle Strip four times in 2004 so I knew he'd have plenty of memories before it was gone.

I saved my arm band from the last year the Miracle Strip Amusement Park was in operation. Date on armband is July 2004. Very sad to have lost that entertainment venue. It was only about a 20 minute drive from SoWal to that part of Panama City Beach (once 98 expanded). I also remember when there were pony rides and putt putt golf where Collaborations was. IMO that would be cool to see some off beach family entertainment on 30A. It could be done with 30A style, of course.

I first met bobbyj at Beachview. He was a dj and stable boy. Then, fast-forward 12 years and we opened up Collaborations at the very same spot! I loved Beachview, the horse rides were great, food was awesome and the help was easy on the eye!

Daddy built this rollercoaster. Finished it in 1964, can you guess where? Hint: Bet Seagrovegirl and Shallowsnole rode it a few times.

You should be proud! Gad how I miss "by-the-sea entertainment" of days gone by--so much fun, so many good memories.

Today what passes as "by-the-sea entertainment" provided at Pier Park <shop, eat, booze, video games> pales in comparison.

Pathetic...truly pathetic:
