www.putneyschool.org will get you to their website, however, I could not
find a single picture of this building on the website.  I think they call
it a recreation building, or arts building or some such.  Very few pictures
on the website.  Of course the ones I liked were the farm pictures.  Ruth

I guess it's one of those things, "I can't explain it but I know it when I
see it."  Well, sounds to me like the "Golden Fleece." You got it, baby!

We got us this fancy X-clusive pri-vate skule up heah in the boonies.  They
just built themselfs a new buildin', probly designed by one O' them fancy
city arc-i-tecs.  It's got them roofs goin' ever which a way. Tell us more
about this school, like maybe the name so we can look 'em up on the
internet and see their fancy new, leaky building. Other people's  screwups
are MUCH more enjoyable than our own.  The real question is why it leaks:
bad design, bad materials, bad construction, or all of the above.  Any dern
fool whats lived in this climate for a winter or two would know that design
is just askin' fer trouble.  Well, now mister, they got the troubles.  I
heered tell they got the leaks in them roofs real bad, yess sir!!  Serves
'em right, bring in them thar city fellers to put this abomination on our
landscape.  And that's all I gotta say. Don't clam up on us after giving us
this little present!  Ruth Ralph
