All,

Just rode around today checking on some things I had wanted to see. On the way there we passed by the school in Atsion that Jeff mentioned the other day had the door knocked down. You can be sure that place in not long for this world. I don't understand why the door is still not fixed.

Then off to Jemima Mount. This is the location Boyd posted about where the tornado passed through. When he was there the trees were still blocking the road. Not so anymore.

It has changed since the 70s. Here is another Then & Now from 1979 and today.

Since the hill is all sand for the most part, one has to walk down it carefully to keep from falling. On our way down Jessica commented that her sneakers were so old they no longer had traction, and she promptly fell right down landing on both wrists. For a few minutes we thought it was broken. Tonight, she is sporting a new swollen wrist that seems to be getting bigger.

We then visited the bridge on 532 in Chatsworth that is being repaired. We turned in at the firehouse where there was a sign saying the bridge was closed. Because we went down the road, two cars behind us felt that they could also so I pulled over to let them by :) I drove real slow and watched them turn around at the lake and come back towards us. I continued on to the bridge.

nice, I always wondered what the inside of the school house looked like. Hopefully the door will go back up befrore the place gets destroyed.

It's been a couple of years since we were up to Jemima Mt...and the pics you took yesterday has the erosion looking much worse than when we were there. The views of the woods from the MT were great.

Looked for some of the pics I took when we were there last. Don't know if they were copied to a cd or lost when the computer crashed. I wanted to see how much of a change. Oh, well. Maybe some day I'll come across them

Hope Jesica's wrist heals quickly.

I posted a couple of pictures of the door ripped off the school house earlier in the year. I think that it was back on but obviously it is off again. I also went inside a took a few pictures. I went through Chatsworth yesterday and they did a nice job on the bridge.
