<strong>RICHARD</strong> <strong>ALLEN</strong> <strong>SCOTT</strong><br />

THROUGH THE YEARS<br />

1959<br />

In <strong>the</strong> summer of 1959 we had our final move, this<br />

time to 2919 Quinn Drive, which certainly was better<br />

cared for than <strong>the</strong> dump it currently appears to be!<br />

Again, it was a 2-bedroom rental with me in <strong>the</strong><br />

basement. There was a little opening beside <strong>the</strong><br />

back door where we used to get milk delivered. And<br />

that was accomplished with a horse-drawn wagon,<br />

<strong>the</strong> milkman simply whistling for <strong>the</strong> horse to move up<br />

a house as he delivered.<br />

This is what <strong>the</strong> place looks like now. Dreadful.<br />

Never used to look like that, and never used to have<br />

a driveway in <strong>the</strong> front. The property seemed much<br />

bigger when I had to mow (and not with an electric or<br />

gas mower!).<br />
