One thing I love about summer is reunions, I love visiting with people and going around a big
table of food and trying all the different dishes. A few weeks ago I was able to attend my fathers school reunion. It is a little two room school. It is now a museum and is open a few times a year for
people to go into and look around. It reminds me of Little House on the Prairie.I feel like I am going
back in time whenever I walk into the old school house. I think about all the little children that got their education in this little school My father was five years old when he started school there.
The reunion is every two years. I will share some photo's of our day of fun there. I especially love
the little cubby where the childrens water glasses were kept, old snuff glasses, two still remain with names on them.

What a cute little school house, it does remind you of Little House on the Prairie!
Wow, what a neat place and all the more special because your Dad went to school there. Have a great weekend.

I love the history of that old school house and it looks like Little House could have been filmed in there!
So cool that your Dad went there and what fun memories for him!
Blessings,

What fun! When I lived in North Dakota (1991-99) one of my friends lived in a rural area & her children went to school in a one-room schoolhouse. Very cool : )
What a nice old schoolhouse. There is one at the museum in the town my mom lives where we have visited. So love that blackboard. My dad actually went to one and actually had to walk a mile each way. TFS. Janice
How wonderful that you can visit this wonderful old building where your Dad went to school! Wonderful memories and treasures there, thanks for sharing Lecia!
