I only remember the one carousel facing the 610 loop. It was maybe 10 to 15 feet tall from the bottom to the top of the canopy.
Another sign I would like to see again, but I think it was modified and finally dismantled, is the Orbit Drive-Inn that was on the corner of Hwy 3 and Richy or Spencer. It was a flying saucer with a glass dome and little green alien sitting in it.

I joined up just to try to find a picture of that flying saucer sign or complete drive inn, I remember my parents driving us kids by it all the time.In later years it was a car dealership and right across the street was a daycare with a boat in the yard , Now its serving duty as a taqueria and it's on 238 winkler rd, It was on the sw corner of galveston rd/hwy3 and Winkler drive .Here is what it looks like now on google maps. If anyone ever finds a old picture please let me know.
