So, this will, in part, be a photo post. I bit of sad news: The high school I went to is going to be torn down July 1st. There was a final walkthrough last weekend with a very nice turnout. I was fortunate enough to attend and snapped away. I knew there were going to be friends (and family) of mine who would not be able to attend. I did a thorough job of documenting it; and I have been told by those who also attended that it made a solid impact.
In a way, it was like stepping into a time machine. As I wandered the halls, memories came flooding back almost instantaneously. I wandered the halls with those who I went to school and visited what few classrooms that were open for the public. Thankfully the library and the theater were open, which is where I spent the majority of my high school career. And, even though I graduated in 2000, the school smelled exactly how I remembered it. In fact, if it wasn't for the brand new high school where the tennis courts, baseball diamond, and the parking lot used to be; it would have been completely as it was when I attended.
So, without further ado, the final photos of Auburn High:
There's quite a few more photos, but posting from my phone takes forever.
