Thornton126 viewsThe building proudly displays the name "Thrornton", since it was built to be Thornton's K-12 school.

Science Room125 viewsAt one time this was the Choir room, but in 1983, it was converted to the science room. It hasn't changed a whole lot since Tim remembers it in 1988-- those black tables are ancient, seeming old when he was using them...

View down the hall125 viewsWhen we attended here, it just seemed like an old school. Coming back, it seems kind of cool. They've obviously updated it -- new ceilings, doors, etc. But that cool checkerboard floor goes back to when the building was built in the 1930's. Incidentally the old doors that were there when Tim was in school used these huge skeleton keys that each teacher had to carry around...

Back of School125 viewsHere's the "back courtyard". Off to the right was the original gymnasium, which was then used to become a band room and shop room.

Gymnasium 1936125 viewsThis was the exterior entrance to the original gym, but when the "new" gym was built in the 50's, it became just another door to the school.

Cathy and William with City Lights123 viewsThis one was taken with both a flash (to capture the foreground) and a 2-second time exposure (to capture the city lights in the background). Again, I had no tripod and was holding the camera myself, so it isn't perfect, but it's much nicer than the previous one.

Andrew123 viewsThis one was taken similarly -- flash with time exposure. It didn't turn out nearly as well as noted by the blurring of the background.
