At the turn of the last century, many of the building lots in even our larger cities accommodated a barn, a vegetable garden and a milk cow in addition to the house. It also generally kept a horse or two to keep the cow company and provide needed transportation.

. . .hmmm, tempting, very tempting, I sure miss the taste of real milk, every swallow of that pus laded crap from the grocery store makes me jealous of the good ol'days, love to be "Back in the Saddle Again"'.

My husband and I were driving through a Cleveland neighborhood last week and noticed empty lots where houses stood a year ago. My response was “I would have a big garden on one of those lots!”

Although I hate how it happened (too much government in the housing market) it makes the neighborhood look a lot better. Fewer flop houses for crack heads. There are some very well kept homes among the blighted.
