    When I got married, our first washer and dryer were rated to last 25 years -- now we are lucky to get 10 years out of them.

    Those really were the Good Ole Days. Progress is'nt all it's cracked up to be. We did'nt know we had it so good. Your entries brought back so many good memories.

    I would like it that children could play outside or ride their bikes all over the neighborhood safely without fear of being snatched.

    If you could chose just one thing, ok maybe two...what would it be?? I'll start by saying, I really would love to have and actually use a nice old wringer washer!
    I didn't mind the extra work, clothes were cleaner, less water waist and nothing beat clean sheets and towels hanging on the line!! :-D
    oh, you mean things......thought you ment Guys :oops:

    We used to go visit the old ladies down the block - can't do that these days - too bad... So much to learn from old people and now I am one - well sort of...
