This is the Masonic Home in Alexandria, Louisiana. (Acutally, this is only part of the facility.) It is where I spend a good chunk of my childhood. It is no longer a home for children, but is on the Historic Buildings of Louisiana list and is now the Grand Lodge for the Masons in that neck of the woods (Rapides Parish). Unlike Oliver Twist, my experiences in a "home for children" were for the most part very positive. And somewhat to my amazement - and embarrassment - I can still sing the Masonic Home Song, which one of the house mothers composed, and we sang in public on various occassions. (I was very young!)
