I've created a number of digital layouts about those years, combining old photos with more recent ones. There are several 'lost' elements from the original school, including a pair of sculptures that were located on either side of the main archway in the center. I wonder what ever happened to them? http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/gallery/member/307816-stefdesign/1240372-my-years-at-el-centro-school/Stefanie Eskanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617748439244008688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-27885922193940368942010-10-16T09:56:42.407-07:002010-10-16T09:56:42.407-07:00THanks, everyone!THanks, everyone!Laurie Alleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14460272282273523408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-68897840608297193832010-10-15T23:50:06.308-07:002010-10-15T23:50:06.308-07:00Fabulous architecture!!!Fabulous architecture!!!TheChieftesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00153059825142977202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-72740031482048335762010-10-15T23:03:41.494-07:002010-10-15T23:03:41.494-07:00How absolutely beautifully wonderful and artistic....How absolutely beautifully wonderful and artistic.
