Route U1 is much quicker than the 331 in all ways, as it doesn't reach Wales, it just goes Swakeleys, Ickenham and before you know it, Ruislip.

Fleur is a 4 year old Golden Retriever and adores to retrieve . She will carry the stick top the pond and then wait until one tosses it in the pond.
She dives and no matter how wild the water is , she will swim and bring it back.
We did not really learn it to the dog, she just does it.
Yearning for real parts and real scenes. Headed home soon so maybe y'all will get to see something good from me.
Horace Mann High School, Gary, Indiana
"Official: Arson likely cause of fire at Gary Horace Mann"

________________________________
The Horace Mann School of Gary, Indiana is on the short list of American high schools that have graduated more than 75 classes of students. A creation of innovative educator William Wirt, the unique school took seven years to build and was finished in 1928. The campus set a new standard for the area’s public schools by featuring landscaped rolling hills, multiple gyms and pools, and even a man-made pond.
When Gary elected its first black mayor in 1967, the exodus was expedited. Tens of thousands of white residents moved away from Gary in what became known as “white flight”. The changes to Horace Mann’s student body were no different; enrollment had shifted from 100% white in the 1950s to 98% black and 2% Latino when the school eventually closed in 2004.
A budgetary reprieve in 1985 would see the school district build a modern gym for Horace Mann High School students. The original gym had long been unsuitable for intramural sports, and until the modern gym was opened the Horsemen had only been playing away games. That year the school also received an updated cafeteria as well as a new shop area. By now Horace Mann’s enrollment had fallen to 1,226 students with 55 teachers employed at the school.
For students and teachers of Horace Mann High School, news of the closure came via newspaper article in March of 2004. In the article it was announced the Gary School Board had voted on April 13th to close Horace Mann that June. The board reportedly voted 5-1 to close Mann along with a middle school and three elementary schools in a budgetary move.
A predictable backlash ensued. Parents lobbied to keep their neighborhood school open while board members defended their actions by pointing to the slashed budget and falling enrollment. Horace Mann was one of ten schools planned to be closed between 2004-2006, and in April it was announced Mann’s students would be diverted to Roosevelt and Wirt High Schools for the following school year.
The resistance to closure was great until June of 2004 when supporters finally accepted the school’s fate. On the 9th of the month, a ceremony was held for the closing institution. After closing, the school appeared to be on borrowed time. Nearby Froebel School, a vacant building of the same vintage as Horace Mann, was scheduled for demolition as the city paid a $1 million contract to raze the complex.
In 2005 Froebel School–which had been closed since 1977–came tumbling down. Residents winced and wondered, would Horace Mann be next? Ironically, what closed Horace Mann School would be what saved it from demolition. The city’s lack of money meant razing closed schools was a luxury, and Gary was in no place to afford such spending.
Additionally, the school board was still dealing with the fallout from the outraged community over the decision to spend money razing the Froebel School.
Several attempts were made to re-open the school as an administrative center, but in August of 2008 a consortium of inspectors revealed their results after they spent the summer analyzing the interior, exterior, roofing, mechanical, electrical, and technology systems of Horace Mann.
Horace-Mann-Science-3The building was deemed “inadequate for occupation” and “in need of replacement.” They determined the school had “major structural and/or safety problems” and was beyond repair.
Horace Mann would faithfully serve Gary for 76 years, and during that time nearly 100,000 students walked its halls.
