Associated Press Writer= LOS OLIVOS, Calif. (AP) â?" Like an old Western boomtown, the makeshift village that sprang up around the gates of Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch was vanishing Friday, with visitors and vendors packing up tents, tarps, posters and CDs.
The dwindling fans were replaced by curious tourists spending the holiday weekend in nearby scenic towns.
A steady stream of weekenders drove up to the estate and took pictures or added their names to memorial poster boards. A Jackson impersonator with a white glove and shiny jacket danced for onlookers.
