another similar hydraslide?

[bluecookies]

wow its been a long time since I've posted. Anyways the wife and I were coming back from the mall of America over the weekend and coming back down route 71 just south of Kansas City I noticed a quick glimpse of what looked like our old hyrda slide here in Springfield. I don't know the exact location, but it was very visible from 71 and I'm thinking around the Belton area. Like I said I had such a brief glance it may still be in operation, abandoned, or completely off the wall. Anyone in the area know anything?

I think you are talking about the one just north of 150hwy along the west service rd. That location is actually in KC and has been closed for like about 15-20 yrs or so and is know used as storage for a boat dock company.

yep, WR and I know exactly what youre talking about. we just recently saw it as a matter of fact. i dont know anything about it though other than where its at. it would be easy to find out though cause i have family right there in that area...Barracuda? Casper? any input?

thanks I'm actually moving back to Michigan next week, so who knows, I might be gone forever!

[CasperMilkToast]

It was closed down long before I moved up here, so I have no idea

[Barracuda]

You were in our neighborhood and didn't stop by for cookies?! *gasp!*

I always wondered what that slide was doing here myself. It looks so out of place and I've never seen it open.

You all live up here now? Cool! Now you can come out and play with us!

[bluecookies]

yeah I didn't know you lived up there either. I wish I would have seen it better. I had no idea it was there, just all of the sudden, zoom! there it went

[Barracuda]

We've been here since 1999.

For some reason I thought you all lived in springfield when I first joined

[FiReDiVeR]

Are the "hydraslides" you guys refering to the long concrete water slides that you ride a tube down?

[ze_beeved]

Yeah they are. I know exactly what they're talking about. They've been closed for as long as I can remember. They'd be fun to go down though.

Yeah, I was having the same thought.

[Hiccup]

men. never pay any damn attention.

yeah, we should totally play with that slide...and my sister'll be at the bottom with cookies to reward us with!

of course im not exactly totally serious, since we'd be seen by all the drivers by on the highway

maybe ya'll thought Barracuda was in Springfield because she's my sister and I'm in Springfield? whatever. pull your heads out of your asses!
