Bits of the past

I'm going to start a new project posting some old pics I recently pulled out of a shoe box in my attic. I added them to an album on my Facebook page but thought it would be good to have some of them here, too, with a little more information as to when they were taken, and where - and other details that I can recall.
This photo is probably the oldest one of the lot. It was taken when I was a senior at Daviess County High School in Owensboro, KY. Forrest Payne and I used to get a hall pass from our photography teacher, Tom Grimsley, and go running about town in his car for the hour allotted for that class. I am sure that business would be disallowed, these days.
This particular photo was taken somewhere downtown. If you recognize the place, give me a heads up in the comment section, below. The assignment theme was "reflections". I am sure all of you photo-class people out there remember that one. This was solorized in the darkroom and has a date of February 7, 1984. The title is "EEEEOOOOOO". I am unsure of the camera I was using but I suspect it was a Yashica. My brother, Kevin, also used that camera in Tom Grimsley's class.

Thanks Wendy. I have forgotten where a lot of things are located in downtown Owensboro.

this is the building that used to have unemployment office in it. It is right by the old jail house on second street by the old executive inn......it now holds social services offices, and our city is tearing it down for this locally controversial river front project. In the back of your reflection i think is one of the banks downtown. I suspected this was where it was at, and as i rode past it, i confirmed my guess
