Wednesday, June 18, 1919

Beautiful bright day. Played tennis with H.H. at river. Candled eggs. Repaired sidewalk at 108 Park Place etc. Out walking at night. To the Colonnade at Rexford. Fine time. To bed 11:30 P.M.

Once again, Stanford is doing sidewalk work. Is this a part-time job? Maybe, but 108 Park Place is right next door to the Clossons. In 1920, two families lived at that address, according to the census, although the names are not those of friends or family members that I can discern at present. Curious.

The Colonnade was one of the names given to the Amusement Park at nearby Rexford, NY. It opened in 1906 and was closed and dismantled by 1935. It was also called Rexford Park, Luna Park, and Dolle's Park.

Here is a postcard with a picture of the entrance to the park. It was sent August 16, 1909, probably not long after the amusement park opened.

And here is a map of the park:
