Memoirs
The history of OBI
The two buildings in the distance (behind the stone sign) are the boys' dormitories - Marvin Wheeler, and Carnham Hall.
OBI's Farm: The school produces a lot of its own food, and has a farm program for students who are sometimes made to work there for disciplinary reasons.
OBI Chapel
Piano Lab: I took piano lessons here at OBI
School Gym: Basketball Court. The blue building in the background was my 8th Grade Classroom
School Cafeteria at OBI
Small Chapel building at OBI: In the distance behind the chapel is a white house, which is the school's guest house. My friend, Wayne, worked at the guest house, and I volunteered there.
Bardstown Road: This is where I hung out with Tracy and friends.
Lexington Fayette Mall: I used to go to this Mall and walk around, to clear my head when things became too much at times.
Continental Square Apartments: Where I lived the summer of 1995. The apartment with two windows on the second floor was the very apartment I lived in.
SUBWAY: New Circle Road, Lexington...Where I worked in the summer of 1995
Civic Center, Lexington, Kentucky: I used to walk around this Mall sometimes to clear my head.
