Kabala Rupp Memorial School

I went to school at the Kabala Rupp Memorial School this was a boarding school and my most enduring memory is the day my parents dropped me off at the age of six and than drove away.

Kabala is a beautiful town tucked in the mountains with beautiful rocks all around. It went through a very taught time in the civil war and Beach bum and Paul V visited and took some post war photos of our old school

My sisters and I went to KRMS as well in the late 60s. I keep promising myself that I will dig through the old photos some day.

A little bit of a 'blast from your past' too! Interesting (and sometimes sad) stuff!
