Well, I'm sad to report that George Millay passed away earlier this month. He was a character, that's for sure! The amazing Poly-pop & modern architecture that made up Sea World in the early years happened because of him... I'll long remember the day I went out to interview him, and how hospitable he was to my family afterwards.

I also just came across this:

He mentioned that he was hoping to do a book - but so many people are, and few of them get made!

You can learn more about it here:

but the ordering links seem to be dead, so I'd suggest Amazon:

I'll post again when I recieve & read it - but I'm sure it's a great read! I hope the book has some of those photos of him at The Reef, Castaways, and Sea World that he was holding back.

Rest in Peace, George - and thanks again for the time you spent.
