The school has "outside facilities".


The school sits next to another old building, H.R. Brown Meats and Groceries.


I have a phobia about taking pictures into empty buildings.  As I was holding my camera up to the window, I felt movement around my feet and looked down...


I've heard of watch dogs...but watch snakes?


After seeing me, Mr. Snake slithered back up inside the red planks. Apparently, he is a strong believer in higher education.


Here's the only picture I took through the window before being interupted.
