Russell Erskine Hotel 26.07.
Yesterday we went to pick up some records from a gentleman, Dan, that lives in the Russell Erskine Apartments. He gave us a wonderful tour of the building. It was built and opened as a hotel, but has since been turned into apartments. When Dan showed us the Ballroom, he told us that his prom was held in that room in 1941. At first I wasn’t going to bring in my camera (I didn’t want to be intrusive), but he encouraged me to go get it from the car to snap some photos. Funny thing about Dan, he’s very good friends with our twin house neighbor Vera. He got wide eyed and giddy when we told him we lived next door to her.
The world just keeps getting smaller.
