This photo was taken if you were standing inthe middle of Broad Street in front of Bagels And Beyond, looking towards Lakeside.

I hadn't heard the term "road apples" since I was a kid. We also called cow stuff "meadow pies;" remember?<br /><br />Lloyd, I haven't had the opportunity to post the florist photos you sent. I will get to them. Very very busy at the present time.<br /><br />TOM GLOVERTom Gloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01749723834326832799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-88757785487789017722010-06-27T12:17:17.466-04:002010-06-27T12:17:17.466-04:00I meant to say that the smaller house is on the ri...I meant to say that the smaller house is on the right next to the parking lot.Lloyd Taskernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-32581189679093892172010-06-27T12:16:00.514-04:002010-06-27T12:16:00.514-04:00Tom, it looks to me like the house on the left mig...Tom, it looks to me like the house on the left might be what is now called Kim's Broad Street Bark. he smaller house on the left looks identical to the one standing across from Kim's next to the parking lot for the bagel place. <br /><br />I could be wrong, but if you look on Google maps they look very similar.Lloyd Taskernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-84888951674228217892010-06-27T00:06:31.438-04:002010-06-27T00:06:31.438-04:00I see by the "Road Apples" that some peo...I see by the "Road Apples" that some people still had horses.
