We have a free day before we head back home.
My plan was to drive north to see two houses I used to live in
and drive by the schools I attended
during my thirteen years of living in California.
Ultimately, considering traffic and other time constraints,
I decided I would be happy to just visit the closer of the two locations.
It turned out to be a great decision.
We had time to walk around the campuses at our leisure.
My former home has a sale pending so the owner,
who happened to be there,
let us come inside and take a self-guided tour.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to reminisce
and talk about her history there and mine.
Above is my former high school campus.
When I moved to Indiana during my sophomore year,
I remembering being startled that the lockers at my new school
were inside the building.
I remember explaining that ours in California were outside
and my classmates were just as startled as I had been.
