I love carousels. I love the history of a carousel, I love to listen to the music of a carousel, I love to figure out if the horses are runners, jumpers, or listeners, the older the better. I found there was a carousel up North of us in Republic WA that read like it could stand up to all the things I love about a carousel and I wanted to take a trip up to see it. So the weekend of July 4th 2005 found us on the road again heading north on State Highway 21. The road winds through ranch lands and little forgotten towns, like Lind and Odessa.
