I could go on forever about things from our past that are better than what we have today.

A real phone on a table or hung on the wall.
Cast iron double sinks with side boards.
Car windows that roll down and air vents and high beam light button on the floor.
Pantries and mud rooms.
Awnings on windows.
roller blinds.
There was a time when houses had "front stairs and back stairs" to the second floor. I loved the back stairs from the kitchen.
Smaller schools in neighborhoods where the kids live.
Local parks with "park benches". Today a park seems to be designated by soccer and baseball fields.

Aghhh! This is making me nuts.
peace
