SS #2 Hay was located ¼ mile north of home along #4 Highway and then 1¼ miles west along a graveled side road to the school. In those days public school was from Grades 1 to 8 so I made the trip there about 1600 times and the trip home an equal number of times. It is not surprising a lot of stories about the trip spring to mind. Over the years I shared that trip with 10 sisters, cousins or neighbours.

Wasn't that walk uphill both ways as well? I wonder what direction the creek flowed in...
These are short, but nice. I did not assume you were walking uphill both ways. But I like the image of the journey and commend you for going all the way to school, not stopping to chase bees and fish for pike.
