It's really hard to complete dislike Tammy Faye, but how seriously can you take an over-the-top, overly made up screaming cry baby that constantly sobs that her husband's network is broke while she has at least five big mansions and a huge closet of extremely expensive fur coats? Yes indeed, Tammy Faye is singing in a gay bar in the sky!

[BobbieandSteveDooley]

Oh don't you worry about little 'ol Tammy Faye, she's up in heaven entertaining at a gay bar!

Can't wait to see you when I get up there Tammy Faye!

Are you still wearing all that horrible, horrible makeup? I sure hope so!

I just love you Tammy Faye!

I used to live right behind this place in Regent Park and I remember as a kid roaming all inside the empty castle and water park. Friends and I would roam there but we'd hurry and leave before it got dark because it was incredibly spooky. Haha. I may go back and trespass again. Lol.

[HCShannon]

There are a lot of old abandoned amusement parks all over America there's this and DogPatch USA in Arkansas are the two big ones. Don't forget malls too!

[Octahoney]

I grew up in York, SC...a neighboring town, and we went here all the time. I loved the water park there.

Haha it's funny that I live in there now. The place is being restored and it's really interesting to see all the history behind it. I went into the main kitchen and it was crazy...potato peels still on the ground from 20 years ago.

[dizzylizspins]

I doubt they were potato peels from 20 years ago. Ever hear of decomposing

[almac4]

Wow is this place still there? I remember passing by this years ago on a trip. It was exactly what I imagined a city what look like after a nuclear fallout. Complete ghost town. Yet stores were still open for business for the tourists. It was definitely a spooky place.

[P3rcuss10n]

yeah, i live near it and when i go by it i have the Exact feeling

I got into this place late one night in '89 or so. A hurricane had recently struck, Jim was in jail, and the place was creepy. I saw the train tipped over on it's track, the parking lot had weeds taller than me growing from the joints in the asphalt. Fun memory.

[dmccoig]

Very Cool, sorry for the cheesy video. I just wanted to get something up and I didnt really have a lot to say about it.

Thanks

Dan

[alexanderhartley]

Thank you very much for putting this on. I have never seen any of Heritage USA but have been curious. When I was a boy I wanted to move to Heritage when I grew up.

[dmccoig]

I remember how cool it looked on TV as well..

Thanks AH

Thanks for the comment

[dburr13]

That was fascinating!...I'd like to see more pictures of the late Heritage USA...Especially topical since Tammy Faye passed away Friday.

[dmccoig]

Thanks dburr, I am digging for more, but this was all I had on the quick.

I'll post all of them on dantraveling this week, I know we have more. I'll give you a heads up when posted

Thanks again

dan

[dmccoig]

Hey dburr,

I posted the other photos of Heritage USA on (dantraveling DOT com) under photos, just scroll to the bottom. I also put a photo of the Bureau of Information from High Point NC. (thought you'd like)

[dburr13]

Great pictures Dan!...They were images that clearly show the decay of a once thriving place...It is sad to think about what might have been...had not Jim Bakker reached to far...

The Bureau of Information was cool too...
