We'll have to find out how many separate pieces will be put together to make the Star Spangled Carousel.

It's a bunch.

Enough to make your head spin.

It took hours and hours this morning to unload the ride.

Actually, it was supposed to arrive yesterday, but was delayed due to the weather.

It took a while yesterday afternoon to determine exactly when it would get here.

Oh, so what you're saying is you've been going around and around with this?

Not even a chuckle.

Sigh.

So where will all these pieces end up, on a warmer day?

Over here on the south side of the 4th of July section, across from the bumper cars.

And yes, there will be a lovely Hoosier-made gazebo around the carousel, including a "decorative cupola."
