possibly my favourite set of stairs

(May, 2005. Exeter, New Hampshire.)

... down to the places where the marble has worn down from all of us treading on it through the years.

P.S. Where?

It's the stairs that lead to the Assembly Hall at Phillips Exeter. They're dead center when you walk in the front entrance of the Academy Building. It's a pair of marble steps, left and right like a V that take you to the second floor/Assembly Hall.

(You're looking down one side, and you can see the bottom of the stairs in the middle, and the other set going up from there.)

I still can't quite get over that you went there.

Oooh.

(From where the shot is taken, does the space continue to the left? Straight behind? To the right?)

Behind me, it's a corridor perpendicular to the stairs. If you're climbing up the stairs, to the right, there are classrooms along the corridor (one wing of the building), and to the left you'll be heading into the Assembly Hall, which wraps around. (Left and right will be reversed if you walk up the other side of the V stairs. The Assembly Hall kind of bridges the two sides.)
