On my way to the Okoboji Writers’ Retreat I passed by Goldfield to check the status of the school’s demolition. Nothing looked changed on the outside save for the two pine trees out front being gone. Inside, the doors were stacked up waiting for removal, and a “Clarion-Goldfield” banner above one of the trophy cases was still there.
It’s entirely possible I took the last pictures of the exterior intact. Days later, it started coming down.
