REMEMBER WHEN - Remember tramping through the rain and mud after parking your car? The six hundred wing now stands here. This scene is now the site ot our new swimming pool and also the new l8th street. The street has allowed TOOCXJ better access to AHS. Many improvements would be visible now in this shot: the baseball football stadium, the backstops, and the new seven- hundred wing.
