  1. We spent a lot of time in Rehoboth Beach growing up, North Shores in particular. We used to wander up to the state park which had a couple towers (unlocked for a while there!!), so this one is taking me back Barry!

  2. I spent some time in the state park as a kid as well. I can remember standing inside those towers and looking up and I can almost remember what I saw... something metal...

    Anyhow, the feeling of being inside is still very clear. What a presence those towers have. Thanks Timothy, I took you back and now you've taken me. :-)

  3. It has been a while, but I remember the doors being metal ... when you went inside, they had the remnants of a metal staircase that wound around the outside the the structure, but had been removed (I suppose to keep kids like me from climbing up a failing, rusted stair). You could still see the outline of where it had been and rusted pockets where the steel had fit into the concrete ...

  4. Memory is a fantastic thing! Yes, I can see all of that now. For some reason those rusted pockets stand out. Very Cool.
