TEST YOUR AERIAL SKILLS (Level 1)


This was a well-known Monroe landmark.

What is it?
Where was it?

Marizell has properly identified this aerial photograph as the Ellen Fitzgerald Memorial Hospital. Click on "comments" under this post for more details.

Yes, there are more levels (1 thru 5).

Most excellent level ONE aerial skills, Marizell. Your comments are certainly a welcome addition and add another dimension to the picture.

I'll wait a few days for other comments before we move on to Level TWO skills.

Remember these levels get progressively tougher as we move forward.

I'm assuming lots of you, like me, were born in the Ellen Fitzgerald. I'm assuming it is still there. Isn't that where Julia Anne worked?

MF,

I'm surprised more of our classmates have not commented on this picture. I remember being born there (not really) and I remember my smallpox shot (distinctly). Remember those? There is a structure there now and I do believe its named the Ellen Fitzgerald Senior Center but I'm not certain if it's the original structure.

MZ,

Now, that you have properly identified this aerial photograph as the Ellen Fitzgerald Memorial Hospital - I'll sub-title the post and move on to "TEST YOUR AERIAL SKILLS (Level 2).

To ALL,

If you know the answers - don't be shy. SHOUT IT OUT! And, even if you don't know the answers - JOIN IN!

I was a photographer in high school. I did many of the annual pictures. I also did aerial photos for customers.
On the right lower corner next to putt-putt golf course was a restaurant. What was name of restaurant?

John,

I'm actually glad now I'm in the midst of a sleepless night - I get to be the first one to welcome you here.

I'm fairly certain you're referring to the Bonfire Restaurant. I remember being invited there for a Woolworth's Christmas party (probably Christmas 1962?).

Thanks for sharing all the great pictures - just AWESOME!

Jim

PS: Hope you don't hold it against me but I went over and read Nita's July 2004 article to get the name of that restaurant. Otherwise, I would've been up all night. Ain't she great?

Wasn't the Bonfire Restaurant further east toward Hilltop?

Glad to see your Comment pop up, John Gulledge.......after enjoying all your photos that have been posted.

Many thanks for helping to make our memories come to life, seeing things "from the old days" again. So many of us just didn't have cameras or many family photos from our earliest years.

I look forward to your adding some more bits of info to some of those photos already posted!

(And, Jim........you are just too fast for the rest of us! AND, your responses are always so much fun to read.)
