Oh Anke, this made me sad reading your journalling, I hate the decline of communities where there doesn't appear to be any hope - on the positive side, beautiful page though!
Love what you did with the photo and layout! As a child we used to have to go down the uniontown mtn. to visit my grandmother. I was always scared of that mtn! It is sad to see the steel mill towns decline Phylis used to have photos of this also.
