Thank-you very much for sharing.

The way-back machine was invented by Mr. Peabody on the Rocky and Bullwinkle show, if memory serves me well. His sidekick was Sheman.

I went looking for the prices of homes back in the day following your links but came up empty. Did I do something wrong? Or that may be in a private database and unavailable.

I think when I was young Florida realtors had a reputation for selling swampland and empty promises to us northerners.

This place is all that it promised to be. I love it here.
