Across 1/2 an acre of field from the home place, an old high school building decomposes like some ancient ruin. The school's chimney is visible on the viewer's right. This school's last graduating class included my mother.

My mom's old high-school building (St Peter's, Cambridge) is now, I believe, the headquarters of the Harvard University Astronomy Department!
