In a way it's a lot like walking down a crowded side walk - people crossing in front of you as the come out of stores, people in a hurry are passing, some folks stop to mail a letter, others are ambling slowly along while they chat. Viewing it like pedestrian traffic it doesn't look nearly as chaotic.David Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12672089188117065118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8930190065426288711.post-20089825839713254252011-03-05T07:02:15.633-08:002011-03-05T07:02:15.633-08:00I loved seeing that, thanks for posting it.

Those poor horses, where did they stable them all? And imagine how dirty the streets must have been. I don't envy the women in their long skirts trailing on the ground. <br /><br />You were so right about the dreadful soundtrack. I turned the sound off in YouTube and instead played some tracks from your 1903 The Wizard of Oz CD, it made for a much better accompaniment.Vincent Desjardinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17620854437984156862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8930190065426288711.post-42379130493087957072011-03-03T22:49:23.344-08:002011-03-03T22:49:23.344-08:00I wonder what Uncle Henry would have said about Yr...I wonder what Uncle Henry would have said about Yreka?Glenn Ingersollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10674475308395975995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8930190065426288711.post-17349286283524367302011-03-03T10:37:14.335-08:002011-03-03T10:37:14.335-08:00Hah!Hah!David Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12672089188117065118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8930190065426288711.post-86302112832081596752011-03-03T08:47:21.189-08:002011-03-03T08:47:21.189-08:00As someone who actually lives in Eureka, Californi...As someone who actually lives in Eureka, California, I am amused.F.
