phew! Thanks Paul! I visited it in 1998 and went in and up to the roof which used to have a rock garden. I like that the pretty much didn't change the facade. last year, when I went to my high school reunion but it was either too expensive without a roomie or full up - I forget which. Of course, that big building next door wasn't there back in the 40's. Now I'm wondering which window was ours :) ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
