A photo my great grandfather took of my actual hometown back in the early 50s.

That photo brings back a memory- the smell of autumn leaves being burned in the gutter at my grandfather’s home.

We would rake all the leaves into a large “Dakota Pit” and set them on fire. The Dakota Pit is an old Indian trick for keeping burning stuff at ground level with the air supplied by a vent hole. Some type of grating material (often just green wood) was laid over the top to keep the fire from being too visible or from getting away.

Wonderful. That picture taken today with a digital camera would be tack-sharp, but it wouldn’t be a better photo.

Gorgeous photo.
Where I grew up that would have been considered a rich people’s neighborhood————single houses.
We all lived in three deckers.
