8. I knew the Dimond area very well.

I suppose it has changed a bit in the last 17 years or so. :) The Dimond Center was one of my haunts back when I was a teen.

[cleofus1]

the roads are all paved and wal mart and costco have moved in...but the teens still hang out...especially at the ice rink...

30. and one last pic...

the road goes ever on and on...

[cleofus1]

31. just found the rest

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
Let others follow it who can!
Let them a journey new begin,
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn,
My evening-rest and sleep to meet.
