Polka Dot House "Creek Charley"
Fields, (1888-1966)was owner of this little house on Big Cedar Creek near Lebanon. For
some unknown reason he decided to paint it in Polka Dots. He made Ferris Wheels and had
beehives and a Polka-dotted suit that he wore on every Sunday. He made fresh lemonade,
everything you could think of to make little children happy when they came to see him
every weekend. For about 30 years, people from all over would come to see this wonderful
amusement park that he build out of love.
