Garden Villa, Where I grew up.

The driveway on the left is the first house that my dad built. It was a small two bedroom house that he built onto. The field is where the house that I lived in most of my childhood used to be. It is now the backyard of an elementary school. My grandmother and uncle lived beside us on down the block.
