nostalgia

I didn't know that this would still make me cry.

Yes... that field on the far right was once my location of choice for the scattering of my ashes.

(This does not inspire similar feelings.)

I can see my house from here!

It's the White Blob NW of the uppermost baseball diamond.

WPI is also pretty easy to find. It's the only thing in Worcester with Astroturf.

hm...

that link seemed to have not worked.

Try this instead.

PS - it's the leetle white blob.

Um... you simply reposted the link I posted, which is of my old high school in California. Why do you say your house is there? I'm confused.

Fun With Aerial Surveillance!

Hey, I recognize the second one! I wouldn't think anyone would care to spread their ashes near a high school, but I thought it possible you'd have wanted to spread your ashes in Mr. Mathis' backyard.

Let me see if I can find some aerial photos of places I get nostalgic for...

This one's pretty close to the place in your second image, and my days were often split between the two places - but you really need to zoom in on it, right there in the center... See if you can guess...

This is the first school I can remember, Raleigh Christian Academy. Kindergarten through second grade. Again, zoom in all the way. Lotta memories there, good and bad...

This one too is in Raleigh, and happens to be close to R.C.A., though the only thing it has in common with that place is the fact I once spent much of my time there, though I called neither one home. It's down there at the very center...

I am guessing the first one is your house... I don't think I ever went there, though. Near 122nd and Bryant, however?
