>>21106045it was a comfy time I remember that even poor people lived in houses cause we still had an economy not based on housing entirely yet. but we were really living on fumes of better days and China had yet to become the planets factory.
things were really set in stone when the boomers parents let heavy industry be off shored. I was at my granddads farm a couple months ago and saw that his old tractor collection was all built in Orillia a town of about 12 000 in the 1950s. its crazy to think that even small towns in Ontario 70 years ago actully produced something other then apples and corn.
