Going up, going down. by mcsiegle

Going up, going down.

At the Marymount College reunion last month, we toured all of the buildings. The Kansas Highway Patrol now owns all but the old original building (called the Administration building when I was there — ‘Ad’ Bldg for short). The Ks Hwy Patrol uses the old Marymount campus for training and as a regional communication hub. In the Fine Arts building I took a number of pictures backstage in the main auditorium. I liked the looks of the ropes and weights for raising and lowering scenery. One of three shots I’m posting.

There are, it turns out, a number of songs entitled going up, going down
Here is one of them:

Originally I found myself humming this song from “Hair” but after searching for awhile it appears that is mostly “going Down.”

FAV I can’t really explain why it appeals to me so much but I love this one, Mary. You have achieved amazing clarity and I like all the lines and shapes

Fascinating image of the ropes, weights and counterweights.
Song #1 - “it's got a great beat” and “you can dance to it.”
Song #2 - don't remember this one.

I really like this image. Great entry for the song title challenge. Good song too. By Chicken Shack, featuring Christine Perfect on keyboards. She later joined Fleetwood Mac as Christine McVie.

Great image and good song choice too. But I kind of like the Elvis version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WpVwbYiwlI
