In 1963 or so there was an abandoned school house just a few yards from
where I lived. Far enough away to be safe from the prying eyes of adults if we
were careful, but close enough that we kids had to keep our exuberance under
control so as not to be heard. The old yellow schoolhouse was “off limits” to
us. We played there a lot, in
complete secrecy, when we were children.
It was slated for demolition
