"What a fun place this was in the late 50's, early 60's. We kids would spend the whole day there (when we could get a sunny day). The ocean water was green and you'd sometimes feel slimy vegetation brush across your legs. It seems like every year pranksters would add green dye to the water. There was also a large wading pool for the little kids in the zoo." - auburn [Fleishhacker Pool, Now a Parking Lot]
