"However mean life is, meet it and LIVE it!"

I've been using Kodak 35 RF cameras for almost 40 years and this is the first time I ever shot black and white film in one. This building houses the local chapter of the Lion's Club. Back in the 1970's, there used to be a viaduct that the city allowed the graduating seniors to paint their name on each year. When that was torn down and the train tracks removed, they allowed them to use the side of this downtown building. Seniors painting their names somewhere is a tradition that goes back as far as I can remember in Norris City.
