"I think I'm going back

to the thing I learned so well in my youth.

I think I'm returning to

all those days when I was young enough to know the truth.

 

Now there are no games to only pass the time.

No more electric trains, no more trees to climb.

Thinking young and growing older is no sin

and I can play the game of life to win.

 

I can recall the time when

I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend.

And now I think I've got a lot more than

just my toys to lend.

 

Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide

and everyday can be my magic paradise.

I can play hide and seek with my fears

and live my days instead of counting my years.

 

Let everyone debate the true reality

I'd rather see my world the way it used to be.

A little bit of courage is all we lack,

so catch me if you can 'cause I'm going back.

 

I'm going back,

not just sitting, walking away.

Yes, I'm going back.

Going back to my youth.

Come on, catch me 'cause I'm going back,

I'm going back..."

Beautiful Old Classic

While exploring Washington State back roads, I came across this abandoned silver mine known as the Old Ruby (Pyrargyrite) Mine. Along with the mill there are several other buildings on the property, maintenance shop, blacksmith shop and forge, office, bunkhouse and powder magazine. The mill is empty now, and so is the powder magazine.

Happy Bench Monday!!!

HBM!!

I saw this old guy while driving around La Grange, Texas. It's the very first jail house build in the town. Now it's being used as the City of La Grange Visitor’s Bureau and office space for the La Grange Area Chamber of Commerce. In the mid-1930’s, two members of the infamous Bonne and Clyde gang, Raymond Hamilton and Gene O’ Dare were held here for robbing the Carmine Bank.

Here's more info:

Fayette County opened its first jail in July, 1838. The cost of the first structure was $460. It was a primitive structure; prisoners were ironed and chained but within 10 years the building was sold. With no jail, prisoners were parceled out to various citizens for safekeeping. The plan worked until a murderer’s apprehension made arrangements for his incarceration in another town necessary.

 

In 1852, plans were finalized for a new jail that was in use by 1854. This jail was built by German immigrant Heinrich Kreishe, who was a stone mason by trade when he immigrated. You can see his work still at the Monument Hill/ Kreishe Brewery State Park.

 

By the early 1880’s, the need for a more modern and larger jail was evident and work began on the structure we now call the Old Jail. In November 1881, the county commissioners selected the Victorian Gothic design of Andrewarthe & Wahrenberger as the new look. The building was opened in 1883.

I can still find Wiley's house

Riding on my bike with eyes closed

I could name every girl that he took out

And from my memory, dial his house phone

Can you take me back when we were just kids

Who weren't scared of getting older? (yeah, yeah)

'Cause no one knows you like they know you

And no one probably ever will

You can grow up, make new ones

But truth is there's nothing like old friends

'Cause you can't make old friends (mm, yeah)

I can still feel the windows down

Listening to Jimmy Eat World

Riding 3-wide on Blake's bench seat (yeah)

My God, it's been ten years now

I would have his back tomorrow

And he'd still fight anyone who tried to touch me

Can you take me back when we were just kids

Who weren't scared of getting older? (yeah, yeah)

'Cause no one knows you like they know you

And no one probably ever will

You can grow up, make new ones

But truth is there's nothing like old friends

'Cause you can't make old friends

And I've got some good friends now

But I've never seen their parents' back porch

I wouldn't change how things turned out

But there's no one in this time zone

Who knows what inline skates that I wore

Can you take me back when we were just kids

Who weren't scared of getting older?

'Cause no one knows you like they know you

And no one probably ever will

You can grow up, make new ones

But the truth is

That we grow up, then wish we could go back then

There's nothing like old friends

'Cause you can't make old friends
