Northmount Report post Posted June 19, 2020 Kids played anywhere that there was an open area, vacant lots, backyards, etc. Not much of this today. Nice job. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry can't resist we had something a lot more scary than ground rattlers to contend with this side of the pond called dog mess the polite way to put it.
