B.D.:

I actually thought the school might have been closed.  It is on the top of 
a hill and fronts on a large graveyard.  I didn't know how to access it 
through town, so I just went up through the roads of the grave yard.  When 
I got closer, I noticed the modern playground equipment and figured it must 
have been in use.

It was sometime after three in the afternoon and when I went around the 
other side, the mini vans were lined up, with the moms waiting to pick up 
the kids.  The side with the active entrance was the shade side.    There 
were also not any big clouds as as there was on the other side.  I don't 
think I could have held the sky and properly exposed the people in the 
shade any way.

Regards,

Robert
