OMG...I had no idea. That place was legendary - I thought it would be on

some kind of historical "do not touch" list. There were so many rumors about that place passed around amongst the kids growing up there (I went to McKinley). Ghosts, shackles hanging on the walls in the outbuilding...on and on. I went by it a million times, but the only time I ever crossed the perimeter was when a friend talked some of us to sneak in the backside over a fence and swim in the pool one night. I didn't even know there was a pool. I jumped in just to say I did, then got the hell out of there. I doubt I ever go back, but if I do, I will definitely stop and stare. Wow...
