"I think I'm going back
to the thing I learned so well in my youth.
I think I'm returning to
all those days when I was young enough to know the truth.
Now there are no games to only pass the time.
No more electric trains, no more trees to climb.
Thinking young and growing older is no sin
and I can play the game of life to win.
I can recall the time when
I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend.
And now I think I've got a lot more than
just my toys to lend.
Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide
and everyday can be my magic paradise.
I can play hide and seek with my fears
and live my days instead of counting my years.
Let everyone debate the true reality
I'd rather see my world the way it used to be.
A little bit of courage is all we lack,
so catch me if you can 'cause I'm going back.
I'm going back,
not just sitting, walking away.
Yes, I'm going back.
Going back to my youth.
Come on, catch me 'cause I'm going back,
I'm going back..."
I shot this broken pencil for a group theme but never got around to posting it. I've tortured it many different ways but not sure I agree with the results so I slid it back to its original state and here it is for this fine Sunday. Seemed appropriate as many are winding up the school year. Happy Slider Sunday - HSS.

Considered the largest wood frame structure in Knox County Illinois, this old early 1900’s school house now sits unused except for Halloween spook shows and the like. There is a walnut wood gymnasium on the top floor. This place was a real showcase in it’s day which proves to me that in it’s heyday this town was bustling and prosperous whereas today it is only a sleepy little village with no business district whatsoever. The current population is about 250. The fortunes of this town rose and fell with the railroad. It has been left high and dry by the winds of fate.
This indeed an old school. Located in Nes aan de Amstel, it used to be connected to the local church. Now it is a studio for artists. I run or bike often past it and I am always fascinated by it so needed to come back during sunset.
Have a greet weekend and many thanks for your comments & favs

My entire career has involved teaching....from preschool to high school, Spanish, English, French, and most recently, Special Education. I’ve loved it all, and it’s painful to see what’s happening now. This forlorn old school bus seems to mirror my feelings....
Des Moines Township No. 7 is also known as the Cole School. It’s a one-room, red brick schoolhouse in NE Boone County, Iowa. Built in 1888, it served grades 1-8 in this rural area. The building also served as a voting place, a community center, and a storm shelter until the Great Depression when many families left the farms and the school closed in 1933. This school is now a living history museum and is open Sunday afternoons 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. June through August (or by appointment).
It was a bit challenging to get a good shot of this old school without including the numerous utility poles and aerial wires in the vicinity. Regardless, it was interesting to track down this historical site and compose a half-way decent shot of this historic old schoolhouse.

Le sport c'est bon pour la santé, il paraît...
J'en sais fichtre rien moi, je fais de l'activité physique. Le sport, très peu pour moi.
Par contre : me balader avec un sac photo de 5kg, un trépied de 2kg et un appareil photo de 3kg, c'est une aimable plaisanterie... :-))
Bon, sérieusement, le sport peut être très photogénique, mais les photos de rue et de sport se mélangent...
...Rarement. :-)
A former tsarist primary school, built in 1912, during the era of Russification. The school operated on this site until 1961, when it was moved to its current location.
In the 1970s, the building housed a butcher shop and was later converted into communal housing. Today, it is still partially occupied. A restored inscription in Russian, "Начaльноe Училище" (Nachalnoye Uchilishche), (Elementary School), along with the date of construction, remains on the façade. Łódź, Poland.
Thank you all for visits, comments & faves :)
