Dear Friends,
In response to the emails saying that Cedu had been shut down, I decided that I had to see for myself. So tonight my girlfriend and I drove up to Running Springs. The place looked pretty jumping for being shut down, which leads me to wonder what the exact timetable for shut down is. Are the kids being shuttled off campus? Are there any students left on campus at all?
We drove up the main driveway, and where the old middle school building was is now some sort of guardhouse. A sign tells people to check in before entering. Since it was 9:30 at night I didn't think they'd exactly wave me on. So I parked and my girlfriend and I argued about what to do next. I wanted to go in on my own and have a look around, but seeing as how she didn't want to sit in a dark car she can't drive (it's a stick) waiting for me to get arrested, we decided against that plan of action. Plus, she was wearing really loud shoes. I can't blame her, she's got no stomach for adventure. So it was decided that we would try the legitimate route: actually calling in and getting permission.
At any rate, it would be good for my soul to be able to walk the hallowed grounds again before it becomes a bed and breakfast, and so I plan on going up again this week for a legitimate visit.
Does anyone want to come? I'm in California. Email me back, or call me 323 251 9586.
All my best,
Jackson
