We have a long ways to go to be as responsible with our resources as our ancestors were.

I remember taking our pop bottle back and the push mowers. For myslef I refuse to get a riding lawn mower but I don't regret the loss of a push mower. We have a steep hill and I love my self-propelled mower now that I'm in my fifties.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15845252729189467819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043083310487431217.post-46360837990031806872011-06-20T00:14:07.242+01:002011-06-20T00:14:07.242+01:00Really Great post.Really Great post.Tanya Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04867118885094628168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043083310487431217.post-33563184805569929212011-06-18T17:52:56.393+01:002011-06-18T17:52:56.393+01:00Wonderful post.

W...Hi Wendy, I remember those days too growing up. We didn't have a washer or dryer so all the laundry was done by hand and line dry. My daddy too used the razor blades instead of throw away razors. We didn't have video games or a color TV so we much rather play outside or ride our bikes around. We hardly ever went out to eat since there was always delicious home made meals at home. Eating out was a 'treat'. We rode the public bus to school or work. We only used the car int he weekends to take day trips. But I guess all these things were the 'norm'. That just life was and we never thought or knew about the impact is was making in our lives or the environment.<br /><br />I love this post :-)Claudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11058544240144845740noreply@blogger.com
