This Ol' School House

This is an old school house that is a couple of miles from our house. 
I stopped by this last summer for a closer look.
No longer in use, and out in the middle of "No whereville" .
Complete with a merry-go-round, 

and a slide to play on.  
I wonder if kids still know what some of these toys are....no batteries or internet here.
No indoor plumbing either.
Not even indoor running water.
It was a simple time.
Just a look at an Ol' School House...."Remember When"
My husband said that it hasn't been used for a school house for 75 years or so 
and is used on occasion for a "community building" now.

Thanks for visiting our part of the country,
Jana

  2. Nice photos of a "Time Gone By". We have several of those old abandoned school houses in our area too.

  3. Thought-provoking photos - I wonder what it was like to go to a school like that.

  4. This is a interesting find. Is the school a designated heritage building?
