    It looks pretty good for its age.

    That's a building well worth preserving.

    Nice old school house. Probably a lot of memories made there. Too bad about the graffiti.

    Too bad the taggers were not better educated. I see a need for more schoolings.

    The graffiti is dismaying.

    Old (building) and new (tagging) all in one spot. I think I know which I prefer.

    My goodness, didn't know there were doors once for boys and girls to enter into.

    We've seen a few with two doors like that in the rural farm areas-- unused and decaying.

    Two the same doors for children, people had such strange ideas in the past....as if nobody had brothers and sisters at home!
