That is Gardner Grade School. Our house and Chevy Bel-Air wagon is visible lower left. The school has been added onto, and two ball fields were built.

Gardner Elementary School, 598 North Elm Street, Gardner, Illinois. View looks north. An original alignment for U. S. Route 66 is seen in the background. At the time of the photo, it was signed as Illinois State Route 129.
