While playing around with Google Book Search today, I found <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=eYBmg9-o9J8C&pg=RA1-PA367&as_brr=1&ei=tO4kR7jOOqTSpgLs7uDdAg#PRA1-PA367,M1" target="_blank">this</a>—a floor plan of the first school I (and my father and my brother and sister) ever attended.<br /><br />Despite the title, the report is actually for the year ending Dec. 31, 1891. The school was built in the summer and fall of 1889, and was expanded to three rooms over the years. The building now houses Greenwood's town office, and is also the first place I ever voted against anyone named George Bush.<br /><br />As a bonus, Google included <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=eYBmg9-o9J8C&printsec=titlepage&as_brr=1#PPA2,M1" target="_blank">this image</a> of the book-scanner's fingers. It's good to know that they use protection.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_GlGAz_oOsBA/RyT_lldxTuI/AAAAAAAABCs/cmaikDD4kNA/s400/fingers.jpg" id="image" /></div>Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01386406270744275223noreply@blogger.com
