What’s do you miss about days gone by?
The culture and friendliness of people in the 1970s. I wish I could go back to those days. Best time period of my life by far. All I would ask for is to keep the medical advances, the more dependable cars that are now being built, and cell phones.
What’s the one thing you love most about where you live? The location of my house........it's pretty and private.
What’s your least favorite thing about where you live? The why that people have their noses stuck in other people's private business.
