Terry and Old SchoolTerry and Old SchoolTerry and Old School

Indian Hill Elementary School - now the district administration building.
We enjoyed our visit to Salina, Kansas. We found Terry’s childhood home and elementary school (now a district administration building). Graycee enjoyed the nearby park called Indian Rock. Terry’s home looked like a 400 sq foot bungalow. We drove around the neighborhood and downtown Salina as he described all the places he used to walk to or ride his bike. He went to swimming lessons every day at the swim center that is now boarded up (over 50 years old).

All the pictures tell the story. The picture of “Lincoln-Roosevelt” Middle School was where Terry went in the 7th grade. It was called Roosevelt Middle School at the time. The high school, Lincoln High, was boarded up behind this building.

We grabbed a fresh food organic lunch at a market and ate under a tree near the granary and the post office. All the trees in the picture are giant walnut trees.
