    My parents used to take us to Cliftons at least once a year back in the day (60's). It was mesmerizing to us kids. I visited there again about 4 years ago and felt the same little thrill. Although not quite as enchanting as it was back then, to my now jaded sensibilities, it was still exciting to revisit the past and mesmer (is that even a word?) about the innocent excitement our young souls once held about the past and impending future. Little did we know that the past was our hiatus.
