Stayed overnight once and swam in their pool. Sad to see this landmark gone. I lived in gibsonton in the early 60s and went to elementary school with the giant’s daughter.

I have found lots of important (to me anyway) information for those of us that grew up on the carnivals back in the early years of the business. Thanks again.

She said she was the only family member who knew at that time how to run it. I lost track of her and her family and who knows where the Sawmill is? Kinda funny tho how things work. After I left the show business I worked at a sawmill for 6 years and learned that my great grandfather ran a portable sawmill all over where I live now. My dad and his uncles used to help run it.
